Holy Purple Monkey Balls ~ What was I thinking!!!!

Yeah I Know I've been lax  posting here.... But I did a dip shit thing... Got my ass back to school. Yeah I graduated high school even went to college 20+ years ago but never really put my mind to it and became a stay at home Mom. A job I loved as I got two great kids out of it. Not really sure how me & hubby did that as we never had a clue to what we were doing. Just took one day at  a time and thanked God each night that they survived another day with us as parents. But I digress my blog is about my return to school and Holy Purple Monkey Balls is it hard. I am taking the Community Studies Program. The job options vary from RCMP officer (police) to a counsellor at a women's shelter and all points in between. But I tell ya doing courses like Psychology, Sociology ,Community Development , and Human Relations just to name a few make my head hurt.Not to mention the time factor which seems to be at warp speed like something out of a Star Trek episode or something.Don't get me wrong... I enjoy school and I have lots of new friends and its an awesome experience but HPMB I was not prepared for the extra work , the information overload and damn I'm so tired. Like I can't even bawl  at my 17 year old for coming home and going back to bed cuz' I'm doing the same thing. I got to have a nap everyday when I get home... anywhere from a 15 min power nap to a big dirty 1 hour nap.I guess school is exhausting ...it sure ain't cuz I'm 40..lol!!! Well thats my Blog and hopefully I will post again soon!

Driving Me Crazy

Berk's HighSchool Grad 2008

I have two sons. The oldest Boy #1 is 20 and Boy #2 is 17.Knock on wood I haven't had any major trouble with either one. But now comes the test of my parenting skills... definitely not my driving skills ( anyone who knows me knows I'm a nervous driver since the accident).That's another story and back to this one. Both boys are going for their License 's soon ( August 24 & 25 ) ... Boy#1 on his motorcycle ( class 6) and Boy #2 on the car ( class 5). Bring on the Prozac.  When Boy #1 got his License I was so non -chalant about it. Boy how things change ! Maybe its because I turned 40 but I'm more nervous now then I ever was. Scares the BeJeezus outta me just thinking about Boy #1 riding around on his Bike..and Boy #2 driving a car.... I just wanna bury my head under the covers...Don't get me wrong they are both good drivers Thanks to their Dad . But I spend a lot of time worrying about things I have no control over  right now.  But with their new Independence comes more Freedom for me. With the kids all but out of the house I have more time to do things I enjoy like playing Scrabble ( I'm totally addicted) or get more computer time so I can write blogs and the ever dreaded housework.
