oh my poor feets, how sore they are. One to many opening shifts with all the running around that goes with them.
That and for some terrible reason i really can't find my runners anymore so i am stuck in my uncomfortable shoes. Waitressing + uncomfortable shoes = extremely painful.
Oh well, at least i am done for the week, now it is back to the other grind... SCHOOL!
This will potentially be my last year in undergrad... exciting i know.
I have mostly 3000 level psych classes with a few of my religion classes thrown in there for good measure.
i rather like the religion classes they offer at Carleton, this term i am taking Early Christianity, which will probably prove to be hard but interesting (the teacher is a real hard ass) and mysticism which has the potential to be super cool.
I am going to bring my working down to 2 shifts a week, maybe 3 should my work really need me, and take 4 instead of 5 courses per term. This is intended to be a balanced work week with 3 shifts of volunteering on the phones thrown in a month (2 day and 1 over night). At the moment it all sounds semi reasonably manageable but i know me, my eyes are often bigger then my stomach so what looks like it would be a bite size morsel has a tendency to be more then a mouthful.
....Oh and my OSAP is FUBARed but i will figure that out once school actually start :( ...don't ask because even i don't know what or how that happened
So with all this in mind Nic had a proposal for me, quit work, focus on school and he will take care of all the money problems. Sounds a little to good to be true for me. Though i love being a house wife, i do not like the idea of being dependent on someone else, ya know? I mean it would be nice to be able to focus only on school and have more time for things like my volunteering, the puppy, our home... but the idea of having to go to someone else to have to clear with them every time i want to make a purchase just doesn't sit well with me. Nic says it wouldn't be like that, that we could work something out so it would not be all "Daddy, Daddy can i buy these?" He wants so much to help me. I have tried to explain to him that i watch something similar between my parents, Bob paid for everything and kMom was in charge of taking care of everything... and for a while i am sure it was good, but then the layers set in and the power struggles began and slowly eroded all that they once were to each other. I don't think that would happen to me and Nic but i am not in any hurry to put it to the test.
I dunno. Maybe i should just ask him to lower how much i rent i pay a month so i can work on better digging myself out of this seemingly bottemless hole of debt that i seem to have fallen into.
Have i ever mentioned that i dislike money? *sigh*
Anyways there is an hour before my man gets him and i was hoping to surprise him with a nice dinner prepared from fresh goodies from the market that i picked out on my way home. Tonight in the first night in several days where i do not have to get up at 5:30am the next morning to make sure that i am at work at 6:30. Now with my days starting at their earliest at 8:30am for school this week i feel like i am sleeping in!
