Back in College...

WELL.
Last week I started my first COLLEGE class since 2002.
(Hold your applause)
 I am taking American Literature II at night here in Kosy on Tuesdays. Its a really fun class, but I love literature, so maybe I am a little biased.

This morning my online classes opened up. I am taking Nutrition and Geography online. Sooo, I go to the Nutrition class homepage and about fall off of the bed! (yes i was being extremely lazy and taking FULL advantage of not actually having to GO to a classroom so I was in my PJ's on the bed surfin' the net....GUILTY.) I was reading the syllabus and realized ontop of chapter quizzes and chapter test and mid-term and final....i have 13 labs to complete by DECEMBER!!!!!!
DID YOU HEAR ME?!?!?!?! 13!!!!!
I am beginning to realize that I am going to be completely loaded down this semester.
3 college classes=10hrs, Lit class on Tuesday nights, I teach club*dance on Wednesday nights, do all of Connection!'s choreography for  homecoming, high school tour show, and christmas show, and somehow in the midst of all that retain my sanity as a wife and mother!!! LAWD HELP ME!!!!!

On another note-
I am really loving this cool weather. Not hot and not cold is perfect for me!!! Its the extreme of either one that sends my body into a tizzy and makes the pain unbearable. Dr. gave me a trial of Savella to try but that stuff is $82/mo and insurance doesn't cover it because there is no generic form!!! UGH. So that got exed out quickly!!! We simply can not afford $82 a month. NO WAY. So, even though the very thought of COLD weather makes me want to break down and cry, I will just have to live off of mobic and aleve and scalding hot baths. 
Its funny though-considering i am in pain 99% of the time during late fall and winter months...Fall and the Holiday Season are still my favorite times of year.
Ironic?
