updates!
Hello stranger!
I have thought about LJ several times this month but just wasn't in the mood to log on and write anything. I hate being on the computer or my phone. It's such a waste of time. I have to force myself to get on the laptop when I'm at home and need to do anything. It's just annoying.
Life is good. I really like all my classes right now. Have a midterm tomorrow and one on Monday :(
I'm taking- Judicial political controversies, American Political parties, and Urban Studies Planning: Sustainable Planning. Even though Urban studies planning is not at all my focus, it's my favorite class. I've learned so much about sustainable living, planning, and communities. It is honestly a super fascinating class.. I wish I hadn't have found it so late in my school career, otherwise I would have considered maybe a major or minor in that field.
My mom just moved back here from North Carolina. She hasn't lived here in 12 years. I've never had her around in my adult life, so it is definitely all new to me. I am soooo looking forward to having her around for the holidays.. which often depress me because they always make me miss my grandparents. With Lani and Chris living with me and now my mom back in town, the holidays will actually be full of family.
I'm having a family bbq this Sunday, all the aunts and uncles are supposed to come over. It should turn out to be a nice little family reunion.
Anyhow... so Es needs braces. I guess his adult teeth formed earlier than what is normal, he has more adult teeth out than what is normal for his age. So the problem is he has grown out adult teeth plus other adult teeth still in his gums but the grown out teeth have left absolutely no room for the teeth in his gums to come out. He will need some of those teeth pulled out. Once that is done he'll need braces..which of course is not covered with insurance...So all in all it will be about an 18 month treatment and cost me about $3,800... Times like this I really wish Jacob was around helping me. It sucks that these major financial hurdles are taken by me alone.
Also I have him in 2 after school enrichment programs. Tennis on Wednesdays and Guitar on Thursdays. His tennis session is almost over. He doesn't like it much so I don't think I'll renew the enrollment. He really loves Guitar and has a natural talent for it. He learned the notes quickly and can play short little tunes for us. We have a cheap guitar at home too that he practices on all week. I'll have to record him play and post it here.
Still going to the gym (yay!), and riding my bike but less now because 3 days a week I have to go straight to class from work. I really only am able to ride to and from work once a week now. But it's better than nothing at all. I notice such a difference when I ride my bike to work. I have energy all day long even through the night, but when I don't I'm kind of lethargic all day.
Anyways I gotta get going. I'll write soon. Toodles!
