Well, folks, I am stressed. Or at least I was. Its easing up a little. Let me give you some background. I am a married mother of 2 (boys). My husband travels with work and I work full time and have returned to school. So...with finals coming up and my husband being gone, its a surprise that I have any hair left at this point! (but I do!) Also, Christmas is just around the corner, then the new year and a new semester. My husband either travels to car sales or he guides duck hunts with his friend who owns a guide service (which is a long story in itself!) Right now he is doing some guiding.
With all things considering my study time is not what it should be and I have to pass the classes I am in with at least B's. So needless to say, its been tough. I am not complaining...no one ever stated that life would be easy. But it helps to discuss my issues. This week has been especially hard because I had a huge test last week I studied my bum off for and now I want to relax, but I still have 2 test left! I have no time to rest. On top of that it seems my youngest son is trying to push his bed time back. I will make it clear, I can not study w/ my youngest awake. So with him doing this I am getting less time in. Next semester shouldn't be too difficult, thankfully, the two classes I have to take are on the internet...so its just making myself do it! But lucky for me I should have my laptop soon!
Also, Christmas, which is a fave holiday of mine is just around the corner. I am super excited, but I have one child that refused to leave ornaments on the tree and another one who keeps begging me to put presents under there. First, I do not have any of them wrapped. Second, I have a box that was sent, its presents I ordered thru the internet...my son will NOT leave the box alone and keeps trying to open it. Thus I do not want wrapped presents under the tree--wrapped presents are a LOT easier to open than this box. lol! But the fun is when we are all in the car driving home every night. Both my boys LOVE the lights. My youngest squeals with delight, while my oldest likes to point them all out! It makes my drive home a TON more enjoyable than it is w/o the lights! I love lights too so we generally take longer ways home to view them! Its fun quality time!
I will leave by letting everyone know that I will be seeing Jason Aldean in concert in January! I am super stoked! I got pit seats--even better. Also, I will be in the drawing for the meet n greet! However, my oldest son is obsessed with Jason Aldean, I tried putting a Christmas cd in the player and he did NOT like that...lol...he wanted the Jason Aldean cd in. Also, last night while giving him and his brother a bath he was singing away. About 2 wks ago he was singing a Jason Aldean song and I asked him if he was gonna be a singer. He said "Ya, a Jason Aldean singer" too cute!! I couldn't help but laugh! So I am a little sad I can not take him to the concert, but I just don't think he needs to be in the concert environment just yet. Although, I am sure he would love it---once Jason got on stage. The waiting around and stuff, though, would kill him. He has my patients...which is almost none. lol! Anyway, this will be a fun concert. I am going w/o my sister this time and that's a little sad, but I am going with a girl who has never seen Jason perform so that will be fun!
