Sundry life events.

gateslackerWhew, these past few weeks have been a whirlwind. If you have been reading this exciting and thought provoking journal (snort), I told my sister not to have her baby till I was off work and she complied. Abigail Faith was born yesterday evening weighing in at 6lb 11oz. Had my sister gone to her due date, April 17, I suspect the child would have weighed over 10 lbs! Since Abby was early and my sister had gestational diabetes, her lungs aren't quite up to snuff, so the hospital erred on the side of caution and sent her to an NICU in Nashville. She is doing fine...just needed a bit of O2 and a little time. Hopefully, she will get to come home sometime in the coming week.
I am also seriously entertaining the idea of going back to school. I started the application process and have been accepted through the Regents online degree program, been assigned to school which was, fortunately, Austin Peay, and have been given the go ahead to apply to the graduate school. I hope it doesn't cost a fortune which is the one thing that has been holding me back. (Other than the idea of actually having to jump into the whole study/busy work fray). I am hoping to head to the school next week to see what other hoops I need to jump through as well as talk to the advisor.
Other than all of the above, not much new going on here. I haven't watched any TV in ages. Netflix is making money on me, so I better get busy with season one of the X-files. It is Brandon's Spring Break and our trip to Gatlinburg is off for the moment due to new babies and such. I need to search for some local fun stuff for us to do. Next weekend starts my new every weekend work schedule. But, first on the agenda, Groceries! I haven't been since way before the Oklahoma trip. There is nothing in this house...LOL!!!

Re: School pressure
Date: 2006-03-28 12:45 pm (UTC)I have found that lately I forego other shows for the Netflix shipments. I want to get my money's worth after all. However, I suppose the same could be said for purchasing dishnetwork each month. ;-) I imagine it would be near impossible for you to find the time what with your work and two wee ones.
