The news is in....

I got my grades this past weekend, and drumroll please...I got straight A's! I even took a pic of them, but hesitated to post them. I felt weird doing so. But hey, at least my kids will see the pics someday, right? LOL! It was a term that was HARD CORE, and I never ever want to do it again. I was very, very surprised to see all A's. I had thought for sure after my clinicals final that I had screwed it up and would get even a C. I jumped up and down for sure when I saw them.

Now on to this term. We are in week 2, and I played hookie today. I am just so burnt.out.of.school. I want to be done, and I want to be over. I am just so tired of seeing the same teachers every day, so tired of the daily grind of going, and the studying late into the night. I was up late last night getting some stuff done, and woke up on time today, only to say to myself: you can sleep 10 more minutes. Never say that, as I woke up almost an hour later. I got all ready to go..but stood and looked in the mirror and said, screw it. I want to play hookie. So I did. It felt great to make the decision. But once I emailed all of my teachers, I felt extreme guilt. It didn't stop me from going back to bed though, and I woke up after 10 am. Mike was just leaving with Matthew, and Kate was passed out in her crib. Man did the sleep feel amazing. I felt so refreshed! Now I am back on to my routine tomorrow, and I will only be missing one more day of this term due to K's heart appointment. So I got to get back on track!
Part of me says I don't want to go back. I know that is insane. I just can't take the sos of it all anymore! I want a JOB. But then I love the time I have with the kids too..so it is a compromise, for sure. I just want to be able to go to bed at night like everyone else and not have to worry about exams, tests, quizzes, and lectures. I just want to come home at night and not have to worry about work like the way I worry about school. I am so ready to be done!
