Finals

Okay, everybody send up prayers thanking God!!! I passed my final exam for medical terminology!!! I could have done better on the test, but am just thankful that I passed, and am now onto the transcriptioning part of my college course!! I have finished the first 2 or 18 chapters, so have a good start, as long as I can keep up the momentum all will be well. Please join me in praying that I do well with this course as well. It seems the weight of my life rests on this course, as it will be my way to be able to stay home with my girls, and still be able to pay bills and such!!! My trust is in God, that this is something that HE wanted me to do, and so I am confident that HE will see me through to the end, but a few extra prayers never hurt either…*LOL*

All else is going well. Although I am having an issue with the girls not wanting to do anything around the house, unless I specifically tell them to, and basically watch them do it as well. I’m not talking about big things here, they have even stopped picking up their room, unless I tell them to. It is frustrating for me, but I am confident they will get back on course.

I also wonder….well okay, I wonder many things…but right now I am wondering if I am doing right by them, letting them stay up late and all….Really I see no problem with it, but it seems as if everyone around me is always harping about how they should be going to bed at a normal (9pm or so) time, and I have to admitt that when we have things going on in the morning, it is difficult to get them to go to bed, so they will be rested for whatever it is going on. but things going on in the morning doesn’t happen much around here….I’ve never been a morning person, as you can tell because it’s 2am here, and I’m sitting here blogging, and actually have acouple of other things to do before I go to bed. I’ve never minded the girls staying up late with me…some of our most cherished memories are during these late nights…But is right?? I’ve never let other’s opinions sway the way I parent, based solely on that…I weigh and consider what they say, and than decide if I like the idea or not, but am I wrong in this?? Should they be going to bed at 9pm and up at a certain time…have set hours for school…and God help me, have set mealtimes?? Would this really benefit them?? I don’t know…I’m confused on this, lost as to what is the right thing to do!!! Any opinions would be welcome!!!

Well anyway, I guess I’ll get off here and do a few things around the house, maybe study awhile, and with any luck, be sleepy sometime before daylight…I have to admitt that hasn’t been the case lately…I went to bed at 6am yesturday, and it was 8:30am the morning before….I don’t know why it’s been so difficult for me to get back into a routine of going to bed at a more normal hour (you know, like 2am or something…*LOL*)…Anyway, love and hugs to my friends and family!!! I welcome any comments you have to share!!!

Moving Services

I don’t know what it would be like to use any moving services. In all the times that my family moved, the most that ever occurred is the use of a Uhaul, other than that, we did all the packing, loading, traveling to our new destination, unloading and unpacking ourselves. We all became quite skilled at it. I was a champion book packer by the time I was 5 or so. Yes, we had restless tendencies, and really I haven’t changed in that respect. I have moved many times in my adult life, and invision a few more moves as well. I dream of owning my own house, putting down roots and all that, but than I wonder if I would ever be content to stay in one place.

Truck Accident Lawyer

Where did one find a truck accident lawyer she wondered to herself. It was a passing thought, as she walked from the hospital cafe back to the elevators so that she could return to her father’s room. Recovery was slow, but at least he was out of danger, and on the mend. She breathed as calmly thinking of when she got the call from the highway patrol, saying that her father had been in an accident. She had been so scared. Her father had been the only one in her life for as far back as she could remember, and she couldn’t bear the thought of losing him.

Home Theater Seating

Walking into the livingroom was somewhat like walking into a theater….Her Dad was a big electronics nut, so had a home theater system. You know, the huge tv, surround sound speakers, basically every imaginable electronic gadget, but it wasn’t a cold room. The home theater seating was very carefully picked for it’s warmth of colors and comfortableness. This room held some of her fondest memories. Sitting on her father’s lap, listening as he read her a story, sitting beside her mother watching her stitch the very intricate needlework that she did.
