Drawing 1. Class went until 9:00, after this it will go until 9:30. We took 2 hours drawing a table full of “stuff”.  I think the class will be both fun and good for me…the instructor talked about the difference … Continue reading →

the child psych class required a service learning project in a school…during my work hours. So I dropped and took a “fun” class…drawing 1. It starts tonight and meets on Mondays and Wednesdays.

And this is the photo Tom wants for the outside of his dorm room. what can I say…there’s just no figuring this one out.

My weight bumped up a little bit at home (must be TOM, sorry for the TMI).  hopefully my last one. My pants are looser.  Everything is a little looser. My “rules for the new me”? wear makeup every day (whether … Continue reading →

I need to find some different ones.  All the ones that we discovered together…just hurt. For right now, I’m listening to music when I walk.  And reading while I sit. I can listen to C.S.Lewis.

I’m registered for SP102 (again) and developmental psychology. If a better class comes up, I’ll drop the Spanish. Update: Student Loan app is done. dropped Spanish and picked up “Art for the Elementary Classroom” filled out electronic promissory note

it’s not good. Two weeks after her surgery she cannot stand on her own or even lift her legs off the bed.  The folks who are there daily won’t talk to Dad (and Mom won’t ask) so he doesn’t know … Continue reading →
