The last 6 weeks haven't been that bad. There are people that have had it harder than me I am sure. My daughter has found out that she is doing well. They found only one white blood cell that may be causing the cancer in her cervix so far. They have done the biopsy and we are now waiting for the results. She is also 3 months pregnant so we are hoping for the best. We have had some weather that has been wet one minute and windy and warm the next. The weather decided to play an awful joke on us on Sunday and uproute a tree and replant it on top of my camper. Haven't even taken it camping yet. Only bought it this year. Thank goodness for insurance. Oh well, I still have the tent :-). Maybe the next 6 weeks won't be so bad. My son comes home from Okinawa for a visit in July. That will be nice!! Time to get back to school work. Will talk to you all soon.

Academic Challenge
The one academic challenge that I have so far is writing papers. I have a big problem with them. They usually come out pretty good it is just getting started with them and putting them in the proper form. Citing usually is not a big problem for me it is just the writing portion. Putting things down on paper in my own words and making it sounds right. Making sure that it flows and keeps the readers attention.
School has been a big influence on me so far. I put as much time into it as I can. I tend to push myself, probably, harder than even the teachers would. I want to be able to retain as much information as possible and be able to get a good grade. So far I have a great grade average and I want to end this term with an A so that it stays that way. A degree will not be given to you, you have to work hard to earn it and that is what I want. I have been thinking about going back to school for quite some time now so if I am going to put all of this time into it I am going to make it worth the effort. Good luck to everyone with your papers. I really need to work on mine (ugh).

Tough Day
Hi everyone.
Worked out at the gym for awhile today. Wow! talk about sweating. My husband and I have been going to the YMCA now for almost 3 months and we really like it. I burn off a lot of calories on that treadmill!
I can't seem to get started on either of my rough drafts due in 2 weeks. I have the research done but just can't seem to get the first sentence started for some reason. If I could just get started I think I would be on a roll. I really need to get started REAL SOON. Time is running out that is for sure.
My daughter called me today and a pap smear came back positive for severe cervical cancer (she is 3 months pregnant). I told her not to panic yet and wait until the doctor performs the biopsy so we know more. Just the word "cancer" scares everyone so she called me in tears. We are going to stay positive.
I guess I will go for this weeks post. Talk to you all again next week!

Blogging
Hello all,
This is going to be a little difficult for me. Blogging I mean. I have a Facebook account and I am lucky if I log on once a week to see if anyone has written messages to me. I am never sure what to write about on these types of things either. Today it is raining out and I have been working on my school work which, according to my husband, is all that I ever do. LOL he still doesn't understand that it takes a lot of my time to get the type of grades that I expect of myself. I have a chance, this term, to be on the President's List again and that is my goal. My problem this term is, of course, writing. For me this is a difficult subject. I have always struggled with English and trying to write essays. I used the Writing Center with College Comp 1 and I will more than likely be visiting them again. This term I not only have to write a paper for this class but for my other class as well. YIPEE! I guess the Writing Center will really be seeing a lot of me this term. I have picked subjects that I have some knowledge and experience with hoping that it will make it a little easier to get through but we will see. That is all for today. Hopefully I haven't caused you all to yawn. LOL talk to you next post.
