About a week or so ago there was a thing that went around on Facebook showing someone's study reward system. Basically they had put candy bars after every chapter - which is pretty clever. Unfortunately since my classes are done online, and I have an ebook instead of a text book, I can't really do that. … Continue reading Rewards
Suicide Squad
I confess that I'm not a big DC comics fan. There's nothing wrong with Superman or Batman, it's just that growing up, my comic books of choice were Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - specifically the Archie Comics version - and anything to do with X-men starting around the time of Onslaught. However, I did watch … Continue reading Suicide Squad
Overwhelmed…
I apologize for not commenting on anyone's posts last week. I meant to, but then I got caught up in school work. All of the classes I'm enrolled in are fast track classes - so they're shorter than your average class. One is 8 weeks long, the other is 5 weeks long. The 8 week … Continue reading Overwhelmed…
It’s Lonely Up Here…
Earlier this summer I mentioned that there might be a strike at Hubby's work in a few months. The union contract is coming up, and so far negotiations between the union and the company are iffy at best. Let's just say there's been lots of drama that has made me nervous enough that I've started … Continue reading It’s Lonely Up Here…
Pootastrophy
There's a story going around on Facebook about a roomba running into some dog poop in the middle of the night and causing a big big mess. Well, I'm here to tell you that you don't need a roomba or dog poop to have a poonami of epic proportions - you just need a 2 … Continue reading Pootastrophy
Ugh…
Our modem keeps rebooting itself this morning. I've tried unplugging it from every thing, sending a ping from the cable app on my phone - everything. Finally I admitted defeat and called the cable company, only to have the customer service rep inform me that our modem is possessed. Well, actually she had no clue … Continue reading Ugh…
A Little Break…
Last week, the supervisor who is over Boyo's therapy texted me asking if I wanted to bring Boyo in for an extra appointment. They had a training class that they needed kiddos for, so they can show the new incoming therapists how they do things. I said sure, because it would get us out … Continue reading A Little Break…
Herculaneu…where?
I'm really proud of myself this week. When I decided to change the setting of The Descendants, I thought for sure that I would have to go back and rewrite the chapters I already had. Specifically anything regarding Herculaneum. And then I had an epiphany. It occurred to me that I could leave all the … Continue reading Herculaneu…where?
The Terrible Twos
The Boyo turned two this weekend. Two! It feels like just a few weeks ago he was this tiny baby. And now he's this little boy who likes dragging me around the house by my finger, shrieking at the top of his lungs, climbing on things, and giving me gray hairs. We celebrated his second … Continue reading The Terrible Twos
The Other Side…
I'm feeling a bit better this week. Things are still rough here and there, but Mom is home from the hospital, the family drama has calmed down for now, and I had a lot of fun doing an interview with my good friend Jewel E Leonard that she posted on Friday. I also celebrated … Continue reading The Other Side…
