Unexpected day off

Very nice.  My class today was canceled.  Perhaps I'll actually manage to get a little writing done.  I managed to completely go over my whole series of stories, making little changes to the punctuation, etc.  I really want to conclude it within the next 2 weeks.  I don't like that this story has been hanging undone for so long.  I never, ever intended to put out a WIP! 

Of course I still have homework to do.  Not that I wouldn't have had it anyway.  Need to take the final for one class that is up and turn in the final assignment.  Then I'm down to 4 classes to deal with.  One other is done save for the final--well 2 but the second one requires LOTS of study for the final.  The other 2 I have some homework left for.  Hopefully I'll get those done today (well for one I have to it is due tomorrow).

I need to work on my middle daughter's room today, too.  She will be home from college in 3 weeks.  We've kind of turned her room into a storage area.  I have less than 2 weeks to get it (and everything else I want done for Christmas) done.

Procrastination

Wondering if I'll ever learn not to procrastinate?  I've been supposed to have been keeping a notebook for transcription all term.  It needs misspelled words, words I had difficulty finding when I transcribed it, etc. in it.  Unfortunately, it is one of those things that has been pushed off.  Now I am scrambling to "create" it.  I think I have about 18 hours left, lol.  Have to finish my review by class tomorrow too.  I can't believe this term is almost over!  The final is a week from this coming Wednesday--should be my last final of the term.

Not to mention I have just 2 weeks to get all my decorating, shopping, etc. done for Christmas. I have 4 days following finals to do it all.  Unless something unexpected happens.  Part of me wants it to but I can't imagine the consequences if the unexpected did happen.  Oh well--back to my notebook.

Lazy day...again.

It was a nice day.  I stayed in, out of the rain, and did things on my computer.  DH had gone a couple hours away to the University where our oldest daughter attends.  It was "Dad's" weekend and the big feature was the football game.  Talked briefly to our middle daughter (also at college--unfortunately it is difficult to visit her university for any kind of parent/family events because it is too far away--24 hours away by car).

I did all the online quizzes that were due tomorrow for business communications as well as the remainder that are due for the term.  It will be nice next Sunday to not have quizzes due.  It is all about Outlook.

Now I need to try to work on disease processes.  I love the topics but don't really like the homework. :P

Writing

I want to write!  I'm so tired of not having time for it.  Unfortunately, when you are in school full-time it leaves very little extra time.  I'm lucky enough not to have to work out of the house.  I simply can't imagine working and going to school at the same time.  I'm busy enough as it is with my studies and my duties as a wife and mother.  That's another thing I can't imagine--going to school (especially full-time) with little kids.  My youngest daughter is a teenager and my older two girls are both in college.

Luckily, vacation is coming.  I hope to get at least a little writing done over my term break.  Unfortunately, I have something big looming for my break that is going to make my life much more difficult temporarily.  I'll probably talk about that in the future.

Oh, and for anyone curious--I write fanfiction about a couple television programs.  I've actually written for three different fandoms.  Two are past shows and one is still airing.  I've started a story for a fourth show but it has a ways to go (it is still on the air, too).  Plus I wrote one drabble (100 words) for a fifth show (it is also a past show).

Lazy day

Today was mostly a lazy day.  I worked on my disease processes homework a little bit--lovely endocrine system, but overall I goofed off.  Now I'm going to go watch Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice. :-)

So....

I'm trying to create a place I can bring the aspects of my life together in one place.  I've been blessed by God in so many ways.I'm a wife, mother, fanfiction writer, and currently also a student.  Hopefully I'll be able to refer people from the various aspects of my life here, rather than many separate places.

Carry on everyone, and have a blessed day. :-)
