Day 4 and 5, August 4th and August 5th 2010

So another day I ended up missing.  I have an 8-10 page research paper due this Sunday and I was up late working on it.  I have almost 5 pages done, just 5 more to go.  I can't wait for this summer semester to be done and over with!  Ugh.  In one class I had 8 7 page papers due, another I've had 4 5-7 page papers due, this 8-10 page paper, and a special project, and a third class that has had 8 more papers of the same size as the others.  This has been the worst semester ever!  I know I'm going to enjoy my classes this fall though; I got my college books a couple days ago.  One class I'm taking is "Discovering Math Across Generations".  My books?...2 ELEMENTARY MATHBOOKS!  That class sure better be easy!  I'm also taking Family and Society, and Attachment and Separation (for child development).  I'm also taking Scene Support through a different college for the fire department.  To top the load off I go back to work in 3 weeks.  This job at Head Start has been the best job ever!  I work the end of August to the first week of June, with the same exact vacations as the school (and my child), including SUMMER! 

     This summer...I've been babysitting, working on all these papers, doingweight watchers...I've still had NO time for other things- like cleaning my house, hanging out at the beach (in my back yard), taking my little girlie places etc. 

So what pictures can I show today?
 

This is the beach that is in my back yard...rather the picnic area at the beach.  This pic was taken in March, before the leaves came in on the trees.  I have another pic I will put up later on of this spot with the green grass and the trees are in full bloom.  It is a really pretty site in the summer and this is where we are going to have our ceremony- weather permitting of course.

There is a great story about this pic!  The true idea of someting great coming out of something crappy.  This is the seat of my car (obviously).  I took my car to the tire/lube express at Walmart in May to get my oil changed before we went on our trip to Pittsburgh PA for memorial weekend and my bestest friend's wedding.  Well not to mention it took them over 3 hours to finish my car (and I was in a rush for a date with FH that night) I just jumped in as soon as it was done and raced home.  This is what I found when I got there- a mother effin rip in my seat!  I was hott!  I called drove right back to Walmart the next day and complained- this rip was NOT THERE when I came in; then the manager tried to tell me the rip looked "old" and I said, "uh...no its called my seat is dirty" lol.  So they sent my claim in and the guy just called me yesterday and left me a message.  They are sending me a $500.00 check to get my seat fixed! That's awesome!  We won't tell them that a new seat is only $180-$250 and I can put it in myself!  Now if my financial aid check would hurry the hell up and get here I'd be all set!
