Guess how many tests I had this week?

This was the most ridiculous educational week in the history of me. I'm taking 3 classes. You'd expect maybe a quiz or even 2 per class, right? Maybe a test per class? This week, I had EIGHT quizzes due today, 4 more due Friday, and this is only for 2 classes. The other class has, umm, 6 quizzes and 2 tests next week, plus 5 quizzes and 2 tests for the other 2 courses. I'm totally overwhelmed!! So I'm grumpy and no one likes me today.

Lemuel had a good day. She made bracelets at camp, and is always in a good mood after a crafty kind of day.

Lily and Oliver (or as I always call him, Loliver) are mostly housetrained. Hooray!! They ran loose for 2 hours today and nobody went in the house. Now if they'd only learn to leave the cats alone....

Soon to come - a blow-by-blow recap of the deathmatch - Julie vs back-to-school shopping!!

Back to School Time!!

Lemuel and I are both going back to school! I'm taking classes at Lanier to get my CNA, with the goal of working in hospice or Alzheimer's care. Lemuel will be starting 4th grade, believe it or not! I'm excited about myself, but it's been quite a while since I had homework and tests.

Lemuel's not so excited. Her best friend has moved this summer into a new school district. They can still play, but it isn't the same. Since they were four years old, they lived 4 houses aaway and rode the same bus. This is just a year full of changes for us.

We have an exciting school shopping trip coming up next week. Ugh.
