Holidays are still here.
I had a fabulous Thanksgiving. I enjoyed seeing all of my family. My child had a good time, and the best part of all of it was that she and I got to spend so much time together without school and work and shared parenting interrupting us. It was wonderful. Now my longing for school to be out is becoming insanely intense. Only 2 more weeks. This week I have a group presentation and an exam in Biology. Next week is all finals. I’m almost done. The light at the end of the tunnel is shining brightly, I just have to stay on my feet long enough to get there.
It’s funny, to think about, but I realized sitting here, just now that almost all of my time not in school is planned and accounted for. Whatever happened to down time? Seems like there’s not much of it left for me anymore. My daughter, work, school and now a Significant Other…….all of these things/people are quite demanding. Ultimately, I love it. I have not forgotten the time when I hardly knew what each day was for. I have healed through the passage of time, and I am thankful for that.
Maybe each time I post here, I will write something I am thankful for.
Glad you are back safely. You seem to have had a great time. We surely did. You mention school frequently. What are you studying and how far along are you. I went to school once, maybe twice, according to how you count. Everybody needs a “SO.”

Leave you with this passing thought, “Nostalgia is basically the ability to forget the
things that sucked.” Wish I had thought of that. From Up Country.
Merry Christmas.

So what is called when you don’t forget the things that sucked?
I do like that quote though. Very clever. Merry Christmas to you.
Have I told you that I appreciate your feedback?
I like feedback
