I'm Losing It!

I am losing it and on the borderline of going crazy. The feeling of being overwhelmed stings me straight down to my soul. There is no way I can accomplish everything that needs to be done. You can barely walk through this mess of a house. I spend all day cleaning up, doing laundry and taking care of EVERYTHING. I miss playing with the kids and taking them to the park. I am a married single mother taking care of 7 people. I better stop here because I will later regret what I blog now. I am just venting before I explode.

School is Getting Hard

I felt so good over the summer because I ended up with a 4.0 GPA. Now I am not so sure I will keep it. A & P is really hard over the internet. I wish I would have been able to take it in class. I'm sure I would have gotten an A if I had an instructor, instead of reading everything and learning it on my own. I heard that 80% of the people fail the course online. I'm hoping I won't be just another statistic. So far I am at a B, but I am only half way and have the final to contend with. I had an A before the midterm, and after that I lost a whole grade point. I really need an A to apply for the nursing program. I guess I will just hold my breath, study and pray.

Abigail the Lion

Abigail decided she wanted to be a lion. She took it upon herself to draw her own whiskers! She is quite the artist lol. She was so proud of herself. Honestly the kid is dangerous with markers. If she isn't drawing on herself, then her poor little brother is the target. ;)

xo Happy 78th Birthday Mom xo

My mom turned 78 today! We had cake, polish sausage and kraut. I would have made a nicer dinner if our oven had been working :). She had a good day and was thrilled when her sister Vie called and wished her happy birthday. I told her I was going to post her pic on my blog and make her famous. She laughed and said she needed her hair done first :). I love my mom and I think she had a pretty good day.

Panic

OMG, I am completely panicking. I spent so much time moving and unpacking I did not get to my homework due this week. I haven't even studied yet for mid terms next week either. I don't know if I will be able to get it all completed. If I do, it will probably not be very good work. I have to write an essay on a research topic I haven't even started. I still have to pick another topic for another course and write research on that topic too. Next week I also have another essay due. I feel totally blind sided. To top it off I can't even get to the library since I don't have a car. This is the worst week I have ever had so far in college. I could honestly just sit and cry. I need several hours alone to write and research, but I don't have any one that can sit with the kids that long. The assignments are very time consuming and here lately at night I am too tired to do any of it. I keep falling asleep while I am reading and writing. There aren't enough hours in the day to accomplish everything.
