Plus, today in class, the lecture was on stress and stress management, and I couldn't help giggling like a maniac, most likely from sleep deprivation, and I'm pretty sure it made at least two kids in the class uncomfortable.
My final projects are also due this week. I've nailed the software class, because the program I wrote is amazing. And by amazing, I mean it's exactly what my teacher wanted and it's 100% functional, and when we have discussions in class, I understand the words and concepts that are being presented. In short: I'm a geek.
I need to finish up my final drawing for art, plus do a self portrait, and then that's all done, and I have to finish two more papers. And by finish up, I mean completely start one, and finally turn in the other one.
I'm thinking that going back to school full time when we're in the middle of a life change was not a smart move.
Oh, that's right, I can finally announce officially that WE ARE MOVING. We sold our house. We leave in twelve days. (The house, I mean, not the state of Virginia.) I should also tell you that while we have sold our house, and have a move out date, we have been unsuccessful in finding a new house to live in. Because, you know, we like to have massive amounts of stress placed on the adults in the house. Christmas in a hotel could be awesome, right?
I just feel like if I only had to do one thing at a time, that I would be successful. Plus, WHERE we're moving is like, 2.5 hours south of here, which means that any time we go to LOOK at homes, it's a whole production. And instead of going to church yesterday, we packed a picnic lunch and went and looked at more than a dozen houses that were either total crap, OR they had JUST been rented out. We're third on the list for one house. And it's not even a good house! It's just a place to live. Because NOW we have decided to rent a house or an apartment closer to Troy's new job for the next 6 months because we have to switch the kids school, and it would be DUMB for us to rent a house for 3 months, and switch schools, then move again, and switch schools again.
Moving was so much easier with babies.
And packing is dumb. Not that everyone doesn't already know that, I just feel like saying it out loud. Packing sucks.
Plus, did you know that we had birthdays this weekend? Blayne turned eight on Saturday, and Thaddeus turned nine, and my parents are coming into town this week because Blayne will be getting baptized this coming Saturday, and my house is a disaster, and I don't even care, because I have homework.
And now, to end on a fantastic note, and also because if I don't write it down now, I'll forget for 6 months.
