I got accepted to grad school yesterday!!!!!!!!!!! I did a happy dance. ::sigh of relief::
So now I sat down today and went over the courses and picked out a couple. And then I looked at my schedule. Now I'm scared.
Mondays: Work 7-3, School 4:30-7:30
Tuesdays: Same as above
Wednesdays: Work 8-5, Little sister time 6-8
Thursdays: Work 8-5, bowl 6:30-9:30
Fridays: Work 8-5, little sister time 6-7
Saturdays: Work job 1 8-12, off for a bit then job 2 from 5-11
Sundays: Laundry, homework, cleaning, and everything else I'll need to catch up on....
I'm frightened!
On a horribly sad note:
When I lived in Tennessee I taught in a very low income school and the kids all had problems. There was this one little girl that i tutored in reading. Her name was Treasure. And she truly is a treasure. She has the worst life. She's 7 and in charge of 5 other kids. Mom had drug/alcohol problems. She'd forget them at school, pick them up drunk and high.... but Treasure smiled through it all. She's a really great kid.
I heard today that the kids went home the other day on the bus and found their mom dead of an overdose.
Please pray for these kids. They need it.
Love to all
Shannon
