I decided it is time to do what I had started this blog to do,
become a contributor to”mamapedia tm the wisdom of momstm.” As I pulled up the blog to get the URL, I
felt that excitement that only comes from anticipation of what I know will be
great success. I start looking at my
blogs so I can give an accurate description of what I blog on…
So, I guess I need to get some consistency on this blog thing
if I expect to be able to contribute to anything.
Most people that know me are aware that I am a writer at
heart. Yesterday a fellow classmate
mentioned something about a writing group to my English professor, and when I
asked about it, he asked me if I did any writing. My answer was great for the professor, lousy
for me. Yes, but lately I only have time
to write for school or work. I liked
that last part, for work. Yep, I’ve had
some successful writing for work.
OK, back on track.
Currently, I have a paper due tomorrow that I’ve already asked
for an extension on. It has to be
good. My work this semester will
determine whether or not I get to go to Rome next summer, otherwise it would be
done by now. No pressure. Today I am supposed to turn in my thesis and
at least two references for another paper.
I managed to combine this psychology paper with research for the Rome
trip. Yep, I’m smiling and nodding now,
I just wished I had come up with this idea before the class period before the
references are due. I have a midterm
next week, a quiz today I haven’t studied at all for, and another paper due
next week. Oh, and I have to get my
topic (decided but not turned in yet) for the term paper in yet another
class.
So, yes, I’m busy, and … work isn’t giving me a whole lot of
free time. I have two jobs, one of which
is just about two jobs in itself. Actually,
considering how I have to fill out my pay record, it is two different jobs, just
for the same place. OK, so since this
has become somewhat of a whine session, I’m going to go ahead and finish out
the fuss. Now would be a good time to go
get some cheese to go with the whine.
I just found out that I will lose most of my VA benefits for
the spring semester, I was right about BA’s dad, he’s balking at the divorce
because he doesn’t want to pay child support, and, I’m feeling overwhelmed,
frustrated, and trying to sort things out.
Now would be a good time to let go and let God, right?
I have all these wonderful ideas running around in my head
waiting to be put down to keyboard, or would that be computer, or word, or,
well it isn’t paper. I have the tools,
some I need to become more proficient at (the getting published part), and now
all I have to do is make time to make it happen. This is step one; get the Blog rolling. I have a lot of great things to say, well at
least I think I do, and I need to get
started somewhere. So here I go with
some baby-steps in the write (yes I did that on purpose) direction.
