learning strategies

I went to the ceremony with Cam earlier this afternoon. He got to have an ice-cream sundae they way that he wanted it. I did feel a little sorry for the kid, he was the only male there…..our staff is 99% women.

I did get my 3 year pin…..it has a purple stone in the center. Mighty proud of myself for that little baby.

They were having a drawing for a "door prize", so they had all of us write our name on a piece of paper and then put it in the basket. Then there was an array of prizes layed out on the table, that the winner could pick out whatever they wanted. They had two video cameras, I would have loved to get one of them!

The whole hour I spent alternately bummed that I didn’t get a prize, and glad that I didn’t get a prize and have to go up in front of all of my co-workers. Strange day…..

I finished the first exam in my M.O.A. course earlier this morning. Got a 93. Not too shabby, but would have preferred to get 100.

Cam has gone down to spend a week or so with his grandfather.

Only oldest son and I in the house during the day. Ugh.

Aaron did bring me home something last night. He went to a yard sale, and found a necklace. The front of the necklace is a cameo, and the back of the cameo is a wind-up watch. I really, really like it, it seems to have found something that would mean alot to me.

Cell-phone bill just came in. Oy. $175 for a month. I know, right!

Also have to pay a seller on eBay for the Microsoft Office 2007 that I need for my M.O.A. course.

Okay, it’s 1:14 in the a.m., and I think that I may be tired. Gonna go add some Seroquel & Trazodone to give me that extra zzzzz time.

I’ve been watching this new show on USA, and it seems pretty stupid so far. "Psych". Not a fan.

Okay…..this is me going to try and go to sleep…..

Yeh! You Got your pin, finally! I am so pleased that Aaron got you that pendant/necklace.Perhaps this is his effort to reach out and let you know that he does loves you, despite both of you feeling out of step with each other. My relationship with my son was the same way from when he was 15 yrs old till he turned 19/20 yrs old. I pray that it gets better & bettter. ;D Czah!

Too bad you didn’t win one of the cameras, that would have been awesome!

Sounds very busy. Congrat’s on the high mark, 3 year pin. It’s expensive getting the software–just had to buy a couple for my office too. Once upon a time, this stuff came loaded free on computers. Times changed.
