Saturday... last of the month
Well it is the end of the month. I'm up. WTF. Why can't I sleep in on my one day to do so!!! I was awake before 5am today.
Anyway, its been a busy week. At times very good, at times depressing.
I heard from a friend who had disappeard, I am so glad to hear he is ok. I chatted with another friend back and forth while he was at work the other night. I think I did ok on my second test of the week. I blew the first one and don't know why or how. I am working on a topic for a Microeconomics Research paper. A friend gave me a couple of ideas, but I don't think I'm going about it right. I need to find something that interests me and that I can find information on. I want to get that paper pounded out in the next week or two. I still have homework to do including some reading. The bills are paid and the check book is balanced (such as it is). K is home for the weekend. She has a few specific things she wants to do. Hopefully she can do them all and still relax some.
Dick comes home this week. I will be making a lasagna for next Sunday's get-together. I want to get down and see him before Sunday if I can. The anniversary of Mom's death is Wednesday. I have already warned people that I am not sure I'll really be up to par that day.
Got quite a bit done at work yesterday, but I really wanted to finish painting and putting together the swim room I was working on. I may go in today for a bit. K wants to swim and I thought we would all swim and maybe I'll see what is left to be done on the room. I really wanted it finished before Monday.
We lost our Fitness Director on Monday. They fired him. No one really knows why. I know there had been some bad feelings and he was having issues; however, he had been doing his job and was more than willing to help folks out with all kinds of stuff. I feel bad that he is gone. They haven't found a replacement yet as far as I know.
We are still searching for another person for evening clean-up for maintenance. I don't want the 9pm to 12am or 1am shift. It would just be to much for me for a day and it is just cleaning. I like working during the day and actually getting to do more.
A friend is visiting NY. I hope she has a good time. Another friend just got a new job. I hope it works out for him. It may require them moving closer to the job as the commute as of now isn't going to be good. At least it's high-way most of the way, but it still will be a long drive each way and winter is coming.
I had doubts about school and stuff this week. I hate it when I get frustrated and can't find a way to get out of the slump. It is hard as I don't have a lot of support. I don't have anyone fighting against me but it's hard to watch the boys, deal with their homework and schedules and find time to study after I've been on the go for 8 hours, plus been up 3 hours before that. I wish I could re-arrange something to work a little better, but so far it is still a work in progress.
Well it is almost 7am. Wish I'd been able to sleep. I'm hungry so it's time for some breakfast and to continue to think about a research paper topic while I read a chapter or 2 while it is still quiet. We have a soccer game at 9am which means we have to be on the field for 8:30 or 8:45 at the latest (I can't remember which with this coach). Then S sees his daughter from 1pm to 3pm. I have no idea what the rest of the day will bring. K stated she wanted to go with the band for the competition tonight. I don't have a problem with that. She will take the car to the High School and ride over on the bus with the band and ride home the same way. That way she is counted as a Chaperon and doesn't have to pay to get in. I also have to do a credit union run today. S and I are also talking about a run to GoodWill for a couple of pair of pants for each of us. I know I am getting really desperate.
Well I have to stop if I am going to get any more done before the house starts to wake.
Write more when I can. Plan to decorate for Samhain tomorrow. I always do my October decorating around the first of the month.
