Back to school

Been off class for a couple weeks. Its been nice. I think maybe for now I should finish my next semester and postpone my college days for a few years. Missing kids and my father is an ass about me being away from the kids. I love class. I just need more time. I hate my constant fatigue. I wish cocaine wasn't addictive and bad for you or perhaps speed.

Pinch Pots

I have to finish my last Pinch pot tonight. I took my clay home so I could work on it. I just didn't feel like it last night, mostly because of exhaustion. I think I will try to start some Coil pots at home too. I need the Pinch pots done by tomorrow so that I get credit for the assignment. I have to finish my Cup and Bowl assignment on the wheel too, but I think I have at least another week. I will get on that in class tomorrow. I really like Pottery. I just wish had more time to spend on it, like 20 hours a week? I love art. I have so many ideas an designs in my head. I hope it works out. I hope I can impress my teacher with mad artistic skills even though my pottery is beginner.

Skull lab

My first paper is submitted as of 11 pm tonight. I think I did pretty good. We had two classes where we analyzed eight casts of human skulls with different genus. With a lot of pictures, online research and cleaning I finally finished. I know what you're thinking
Why cleaning? Well I could not concentrate until l had a clean spacious place to work. I finally cleaned and organized half the family room and opened some windows for fresh air. Life is good when I can concentrate. I usually get about 1 to 2 hours a day of consentration. I really need to have a sleep study done.

Getting my leg's waxed

Owe owe well not that bad
Had a pedicure and Kristin is getting her nails done. The off to the hillbilly picnic we go

All in school

The last week was hectic but we survived. I still wasn't able to get my school work done until Sunday. Luckily for me it was a Holiday weekend so we had another say to spend together. My daughter is doing good in school! My son I am not so sure. He got in trouble once for booing a teacher. He was talked to and I made it clear not to follow other kids and if it happens again he will be grounded. He seems like he is doing good but I am not sure on all his work. I will have to talk to his teacher. So hard to keep track of the kids progress in school if they don't help you. We went to 2 movies this weekend. The smurfs for me and Cole. It was great! Then on Monday it was Family night at the dollar movies so it was $0.75 a person but the concessions killed me 23 bucks. No more concessions. I only bought them cause I yelled at Kris felt bad and so wanted to spoil them. I gotta keep a lid on my big mouth. Well the second movide was Green Lantern; now Cole wants everything Green Lantern and he wants to be Green Lantern for Halloween. He wants Posters the Ring, Lantern and everything.

On my Anthropology Quiz I sucked 70% was my high, I had just read the chapter too. I guess I am not understanding the subtle differences in things. I hope its not because I have an international version of the book??? Now I'm worried.

I have school tomorrow but it is also my daughters birthday. My boss is off so I can't ask her for it off. If I don't have it off I won't see Kris on her Birthday at all. I'm going to try. Wish me luck.

Kids back to school

So my six year old started 1st grade this morning. It was very cute. I drove behind him and his best friend on their bikes. He knew right where to go to park his bike (thatnks to his friend). It was so cute. I didn't want to leave. Hope it goes good. His firat full day of school with lunch.

I took my teen to get enrolled in her class as online schooling fell through. It was simple and she still chose her classes :-). I'm at work thinking I can't wait to hear about their first days in a new school.

Trying to get homework done

I didn't have much homework this week, just to read a chapter and take a Quiz (noted in previous post). I did however have a hard time getting the reading done. Class was Wednesday and I didn't get done till late.

No time the first night but the second night I got about an hours in after reading my son a bedtime story. I finally fell asleep reading (my book is not going to look pretty is I keep falling asleep on it). The next night I was on a Team retreat, I tried to read when I got home but was bombarded with kids wanting attention. I then had to re-shower and go out with the kids shopping. Then came home changed and went to my Aunts Birthday Party with my mother. No time that night. Saturday was working till 3:30 to make up from Wednesday and then took my son to The Smurfs because he did his laundry. We had fun and got some stuff for our new Kitten at the pet store. We got home late and then I tried to rest but got in an argument with my teanager who now wanted me to go out again to another movie. Yeah no way.... too tired. I did go to the grocery store and my daughter left to the movie on her own. I had to wait till 12 to pick her up and watched Dexter while waiting because I was to tired to read. Next day is family day and we spent the day at gateway. We ate lunch at Happy Sumo and had Dragon Scales, Miso Soup, Sushi and Teriyaki Chicken. It was great except for the 2 times we spilled. Good thing we were on the patio. We went to Sur La Tab and got free coffee from the express machine demonstration and my son played in the fountain while I read my Assignment. Kris went shopping on her own. We left around 7 after grabbing the next book in her series and went home. Kris started an argument on the way home and I tried to let it go. I took my quiz then. Then of course the teenager didn't let it go and now I am a bad guy and everyone hates me. I was reasured I was not loved.

Is this normal behaviour for 14 going on 15? Or do I really suck at everything because I won't give my teenager everything she wants right when she wants it. Oh well I am used to being hated.
