Let's see...assessment of life as it stands today. Today is my second and last PTO day. I took Friday and today off. No particular reason, but needed some time away from work and to get stuff done. Friday was nice - Todd was off also so we did some shopping, had brunch out, short nap, and got a doctor's appt out of the way. Saturday/Sunday standard weekend stuff plus took Kate to see Toy Story 3 on Sunday. Kate's behavior on Saturday was awful, but Sunday was a completely different child. So all in all, it was a fairly nice weekend.
I've been interjecting schoolwork - some here, some there - all during the week. I feel more caught up in this class than I have in the past two semesters. So far I am averaging an 85% - I can live with that for now. I am hoping to end up with an 'A' by semester end. I have one more discussion question and week 5 quiz to take today. Week 6 is less work so that is a relief. I am not looking ahead in this class at all. Just taking it one week at a time so as to not stress myself out.
We are still trying to decide on a family vacation (Disney or Disney cruise) next spring or a trip to Europe for me in the summer. We can't afford both. I really want to see Europe, but we've not had a proper family vacation in quite a while. We could combine our vacation with Kate's birthday - no gifts and no party.
We move into the condo July 9th. That is 2 weeks and 4 days away. I can't wait to have my own office with a DOOR! Also, the kitchen and our bedroom are on opposite ends of condo. No more worrying about kitchen noise waking up the other person. I am hoping for nice neighbors - maybe if we are lucky we will have someone who can watch Kate from time to time.
I see the eye doctor for a second follow up today. I think we've found a contact and strength that work for me. Unfortunately, since my prescription has gone down, I will also need new glasses - not cheap.
Ugh, here comes more rain. Gotta run - grocery needs me; lunch awaits; laundry to finish; and school work.
