Rainbow Promises

School AHHHH....

So my weekend was good. Saturday we took a family trip to Wal-mart to get some stuff for Flyboy and Monkey to finish their Titanic model they are working on. Chubs is cutting teeth and ended up not being happy, but that was better because I pushed us out of the store before we could get into too much trouble!!
Sunday we had a b-day party so we took a family trip to Super Target to get a present. Well Starbucks was handing out samples of their passion fruit tea lemonaide. Well smart me said I will try a sip because I am sure my allergy is not that bad. Well before I even got out to the car my lips were swelling and I was having an asthma attack. I got in the car and Erik took me right to the ER (thank God we were next to the base). He dropped me off and I ran in and told them I needed an Epi pen NOW. The nurse looked at me then a corpsman realized what I said and pulled me into a room and gave me the pen. They actually repremanded the corpsman. Oh well I got the Doc to refill my script so I have 2 epi pens now. So much for a sip. Well I walked home and slept all day so then last night I couldn't sleep. 7am comes fast when you do not sleep well. Somehow I got the kids out the door and then got myself ready for school. I checked into my online courses and got all those assignments done. Then I packed up and went downtown for my Calc II class. I was really nervous but the instructor is AWESOME!! I talked to him for about 20 min after class and he just seems so laid back that I am sure this is not going to be as bad as I thought.
Well now I have to write my letter to try and appeal my financial aid. I have too many credit hours due to having to transfer way too many times. Hopefully they will help me out otherwise it is no biggie Navy Relief is doing a 0% loan so I am paying it off slowly right now.
I guess I better go help Flyboy with dinner he keeps looking over at me and asking how to make mashed potatoes. This from the man who usually does all the cooking. Oh well

Wow, I bet that was scary...and just a little sip!!

Are you enjoying your classes? I just don't think I would have the energy to educate myself at age 29!! lol

I have been in college for 7 years now, I have only taken 3 semesters (2 after Apple Juice and 1 after Chubs) off since I started in '98 right after I finished HS. The on-line classes are a lot of busy work, but I have taken them before. The only thing that is weird is they want us to do group projects and I just see that as hard when you only know each other from on-line.
