A Week Off!

Well, I get a week off from school. I've had 3 tests and only have 2 to go!! I am so ready for this class to be over. I am pulling a B, but it's just barely a B. I'm trying not to be too concerned about it. After the 2nd week in December, I will get a month off before I start a VERY insane semester in the spring.

Lexi got her glasses and within 24 hours, they broke!!! I called Todd's office and they had Lexi come in. They discovered the lab cut the lenses wrong and so they had to send them back. So, hopefully we will have them back on Wednesday. I can tell a huge difference when she is not wearing them.

I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!

My baby's gettin' glasses!

For those of you who are here in Bentonville and are around Lexi much, know that she has had issues with her eyes. Both of her eyes drift off and on due to the muscles in her eyes not working properly. When she was 3 or 4, she had to have surgery for this problem. So, this week my mom took her to see Dr. Todd Hook ( our friend from church) and he said that she has to have glasses. This should help keep her eyes focused.

Lexi is ecstatic! Her mama isn't, but I also don't want her to go through all the eye issues I've had my entire life!!!

Dr. Todd told us she will more than likely have to have surgery again, but he wants to put it off as long as possible. We will probably wait until her preteen/teen years to do it.

On another note, I took my second test online and still didn't do very well. I'm pretty frustrated, but I only have 3 more tests to go. LOL! This class will be over soon and then I can move on.

Have a good week. I can't believe the holidays are right around the corner!

What have I gotten into???

Well, I started my online class (which I've never done before) and I think I've lost it! I definetely learn better by seeing and doing, not reading! I turned in my first test which was over 3 chapters (108 pages) and made a C!!! Grrr! I don't have a clue what I am doing! It's been a rough week for me anyway, so this certainly didn't help. Pray for my sanity! I guess we'll try again next week when I take my next test. The work load is actually not much for this class, it just helps me to talk about the material because I learn better that way.

Enough whining... Hopefully the next will be better!

1 down, and who knows how many to go!

Well, I have officially finished my first class at Harding. I ended up with a 96%!!! I am in the middle of my PE class (Ha! I still smile every time I think about it). Today, I signed up for another class at NWACC. This spring, I will be taking SPANISH!! Yikes! I took it for 2 years in High School, but we all know how long ago that was :).

Today has been a really rough day! Work stuff... It's along story that I won't bore you with. Anyway, I guess that's about it. I'll write again soon.
