Quick note

This summer will prove to be a real lesson in organization. These two classes are throwing papers, quizzes and group projects at me left and right.... but I'm managing to stay afloat.

It is still only week #2. (total = 13 weeks)

In the next 10 days - between the two classes - I have 4 short essays (with 3 references for documentation), 2 quizzes (timed tests on-line), and one 5 page term paper.

Not to mention work and actually driving down to Miami to attend the class.

The girls have their dance recital tomorrow night. I'm still not sure if I have their clothes right. Olivia has lost some weight and I think that the skirt, that she wore for an earlier show, won't fit now.

Linda - I'm not sure if you spoke with Lisa about tomorrow night, but don't worry about it. We decided to just take all the kids with us. Paige will just have to sleep in the stroller.


Going next week to see a pediatric surgeon about Olivia and her spotting problem. I'm hoping that Dr. Long will be willing to sedate her (on another day) and scope her little private area to see if there is any polyps. Something is making her bleed and all the other test are coming back negative.

I'm thinking that this will be scheduled for sometime in June. I took off every Tues and Fri. so I can be available for the surgeon on those days.

Pretty much that is it. Taking the three older ones to the dentist today at 8:30 and meeting with some friends to study for this week's test after lunch.

Thanks to facebook several of us got to know each other before these classes started. There are 6 of us that are heading to anesthesia school in the fall and we are all taking these two summer classes together.

It is nice to know people before starting the full time program. I'm the only married one, only one with kids. Finding a balance is hard, but manageable.

When my classmates are complaining, I just give them a look. I trump all of them with BUSY (working, school, housework, family) and I just tell them to suck it up, if I can do it... so can they. We are turning out to be a good team.
