TGIF
So I am super happy that it is Friday and it's a 3 day weekend...YAY!
I have decided NOT to take a break in school...I was going to take 2 semesters off but then I was thinking, I've come this far and it will just benefit me in the long run. So I am going to register for 2 classes for the summer term - Critical Thinking/Ethics and Human Growth and Development. I think I will enjoy those two classes.
I had a really long talk with my mom last night...it's always nice to sit and chat with her (over the phone, of course). The only thing that kept pissing me off was that I kept losing service on my cell and the call must have dropped about 5 times. We were just discussing marriage and how I have been feeling lately with my life...overall. She was great at making me feel better, I just wish I could have given her a hug!! :( She's been feeling really depressed lately, also...she's going through her "pre-menopause" so her hormones are all out of wack. She's only 45 and I believe that's kind of young for menopause, however I am not sure. Plus she has had a super crazy cold...I hope she feels better.
I should be getting the title to my car sometime next week...I can't believe it's finally paid off! Now we just have to get a couple things fixed and it will be good to go! It's a 96 and it only has 67k on it...not too shabby. If we take care of it properly (oil changes and tune ups) it should be able to last a couple more years. I just like it that we are down one car payment...that's always nice. And the insurance coverage has been 'modified' so that's even more money in our pockets. We figure that we should be able to put away at LEAST $400.00 a month. So I think it should add up quickly. Hopefully in a year we will have been able to save at least 5000.00. Then I can start focusing on a house! Although, I don't know how well that is going to work because Greg's lease is up in November so we have to use a lot of that money for a down payment on a new car. ::sigh:: Whatever, we will get ahead at some point.
Last night I was so tired I fell asleep for like 2 hours, got up, took a shower, and went right back to bed. I don't know whY i've been feeling so exhausted lately. Maybe this weekend I will be able to catch up on some sleep.
Okay, off to do some fascinating work!!!
