First Week Of School

Yay! Pumpkin spice latte is BACK!
The day has finally arrived. I am officially a student again! It feels so great! I dropped Olivia off with my mother in law (Kellie) in the morning and I made my way to school. Walking to class I started to realize how old I am. These kids look like they just came out of the mothers womb. Everyone was waiting outside of class and I noticed the lights were on. I asked this guy if we were allowed in and he replied "I dunno".... Did you even try dude? Geez. Of course, being older and not caring, I walked right in and the professor greeted me. Immediately everyone else followed... Really people? I thought I was nervous and these kids were down right terrified!

The professor was and is amazing! It's a history class (Western Civilization) and luckily he is hilarious! I love history but if you get a dry professor it can make it really boring. I was going to take two classes this semester but with how much work this teacher requires outside of class, I had to drop my other one. On top of the quizzes, test, reading, homework and writing assignments, I have to still make time for my beautiful daughter! So I already have 100 pages to read by Tuesday for our first quiz. Getting used to doing this work on top of taking care of the house and Olivia will be a challenge, but than again it is only one class for this semester. Trying to ease my way back into being a college student.

My beautiful, exciting textbook...
Blake started his first day of his last undergrad semester! So proud of him! He is only taking 3 classes this fall, since that is all he needs to graduate. Ethics, Tax and Forensic Accounting... Sounds like fun? After this week he said his classes are going to be pretty easy except for tax. I just keep reminding him he has done a lot worse and it is his LAST semester. He is so ready to be done and I don't blame him. He ended up with no homework or reading this week, unlike me (lucky duck). Which is nice because he is helping me study for my up coming quiz. It's pretty cute that we are both in school!

Overall great first day and week for the both of us! Couldn't complain. When I went to go pick up Olivia from my in laws, Kellie talked to me all about my first day. It's so nice that she cares so much! She offered to watch Olivia for this semester since it is only two days a weeks for 4 hours total a week. No need in wasting $500 a month on daycare for that short of a time. So as of now this is a permanent thing instead of daycare, which I'm happy about. I hurried back home to get the hubby up (he worked until 5am) because he had a huge phone interview! But that deserves its own blog so I won't talk too much about that now. The rest of the day was a typical Wood household adventure; grocery shopped, read and cleaned the house. BUT it was the BEST day ever with great news! A new beginning for this family and I'm so excited what the future holds! Guess you will have to wait and see why and what! Stay tuned!!!
