Gotta get into the groove..

The spring semester has started! I unexpectedly had to transfer to ECU. Let me tell you... that was nerve wracking! I know nothing about ECU, and much less about Ada. I was able to enroll in two courses online and two courses on campus.  Its the second week of class and while I am nervous, I think everything will be okay.

I think I'm just nervous because I know I have to do well this semester and I'm just not sure how that is going to work out.  I'm just going to take things one step at a time.  I think I'll feel better as the semester progresses.


Talk about progress! Luke has began walking! He's still crawling a little but he walks more every day!   Its fairly exciting! I hope that he enjoys walking and won't follow behind me and cry because I won't pick him up.  That happens to be frustrating.

I've tried to introduce potty training for 2 years, and Raegan is finally interested!.. She peed in the potty all week at school and over the weekend she peed almost every time, in the potty.  She has done nothing but talk about how she's a big girl.  I feel so relieved.  Potty training is frustrating to me, enough to make me not want to have more kids lol.  It can't be the most horrible thing in the world..

Raegan is at school today and daddy is at work.  Luke and I are enjoying ourselves at home.  I'm trying to convince myself to work on a discussion post before I forget the material I read this morning.  Its too early in the semester to be procrastinating. ;)

I think I'm going to like my classes on campus.  My first is an adolescent development class. My professor seems to be a very sweet woman.  I am also enrolled in Social Stratification.  The professor I have for that class is also a woman.  She's entertaining. I have to volunteer 15 hours this semester in order to pass my classes.  I spoke with the principle at Raegan's school who gave me permission to volunteer, mentor, read to, and tutor up at the school.  I don't know exactly what my volunteering will consist of but I hope it all works out well.

Luke went to his second day of daycare yesterday.  Caren said that Luke cried quite a bit, and only wanted to be held.  I'm sure he'll get the hang of things but its bittersweet because I'd never purposely hurt the child.  But I really do enjoy driving to class. 45 minutes in the car alone, one way.. with no screaming or fighting AND I have total control over the radio.  Now that is relaxing.

Sigh. Too many things distracting me. I gotta pee. so I'm going to end this.

Adios
