Okay, it's been too long, so... HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Allright, now that that's out of the way!
First major business to address.... YAY! My big is pregnant! Congrats gal7171!
Now onto school and work and this semester:
I have to work tonight and am studying some this morning and getting things in place for this semester and... well, I'm feeling VERY overwhelmed at the moment. Although it is very exciting and I know will be very good learning experience, I have two simulations in two of my classes which are going to take up a lot of time. The both seem to be pretty much running companies and making production decisions and things like that (which totally makes sense, since I am a business major and will have to make these decisions some day). It's just a little scary because I've never been that great with the accounting aspect of things and my grade in one of these classes is directly related to how well the company performs overall. I think it's a little more stressful in the one class since it is online, but we shall see. My other classes seem as though they are going to be very interesting. I have some sort of a project due in every class this semester (which isn't surprising). I'm really only stressing out because I can't really take off any time from work and the way that my school and work schedule is, it's going to put a little bit of a strain on me (but I do know that long-term it's totally worth it).
We have a new training class at work going through right now (7 people, so we will hopefully get at least 4 that stick around long term). I kind of addressed the work stress above with school, but my schedule this past week was 7 shifts and this week it's 6. I only work nights, but the day I have off of school so far they have scheduled me for both AM and PM shifts. The money has been good though so there's no complaints there. I'm just not wanting to get burned out. I guess I'm just really nervous about making everything work right now, but I know that I can do it!
A few weeks ago Marcus got into a car accident (he's fine) but it's probably going to start to get a little difficult when he's going to want to go out and I'll need to study. I really value quality time like that, but I'm sure it will bring us closer together (having a little less time together). We both are looking at some major changes in our lives coming up soon and I know that they will all be for the best.
Going to a hockey game on Sunday and I can't wait!! Thrashers vs. Flyers. We got tickets from some friends when we helped to cater their wedding back in the fall and we're going to Sunday's game and then the following weekend there's a game on Saturday. I have been looking foward to this for months (can't wait!)!
Okay, so I don't know if that really made much sense. Unfortunately I need to run some errands right quick and grab some lunch, coming back here to fininsh up some school work and then going to work. Hopefully it will go by fast. Hope everyone else is doing well. I've been skimming the journal entries, so please let me know if I missed something major. Love you all!
