First day of school!

Woo hoo!
Technically today (tuesday) is going to be my first day in a class room. But I started my online class yesterday. It's a math class monday thru friday. And tuesday and thursday evening I have a writing class, which I start later today. I had a lot of running around yesterday. I left my house around 11am to go meet with my uncle. He's my godfather and is really happy to see me going to school. We met for lunch and then went over to the college. He wanted to make sure all my financial aid was in order. Which it's a good thing we went because it turns out I didn't sign something. And thats why I haven't heard anything about it. But they said it was ok. So in the next couple weeks I'll hear more about that. Then we went to the book store. He bought what I needed for my math class and that was it. But last night I find out that there's another book I need. But it wasn't posted. Ugh. But its only $30. So I'm going to go get it later. I'm also probably going to get a backpack and some more notebooks and folders.

I also went to see a good friend that I haven't seen since september. It was soo nice seeing him. He had some problems a few months ago and was arrested and put in a halfway house for violating him probation. I sat there and talked with him for two hours. We talked about all kinds of things. Me going to school, my relationship with Elliot, my kids, how he's been, what really happened the night he got arrested. Elliot was with him that night but didn't tell me what really happened. So I'm upset about that.
But I'm happy because the place he's staying at is less then 10 minutes from the school. And I'll be there twice a week. So I can stop in and see him before or after I go.

I also bought a pattern to make longies and pants for my boys. I haven't made any yet, since I've been trying to get ready for school and everything. But hopefully soon. I even bought some really cute fabric.

So I have quiet a bit going on. I might be cutting back on my hours at work to focus on school and stuff right now. We'll se how it all goes : )
