New Challenges!
>> Monday, July 27, 2009
Well where does one start?? I guess the saying goes "Your never to old to Learn new things" I have made the choice to go back to school. This experience will be awesome!! Not to sure how I'll like having homework again, but it will all be worth it in the end. Our family was sitting around talking about this and Anthony said to me , well it will be fun hounding you to do your homework. I laughed at him and said yeah we can do ours together!! He starts Grade 10 in September. He's majored in cooking, He loves to cook!
Around the home we have all been very busy. Anthony Love's his job at the gas station, he's doing everything in there including handling the til and takes on all the jobs without any problems. He Love's the pay cheques, all kids do!
Hubby has been very busy at work, and it's all going good. He loves his job and its nice to see a man get up in the morning in a good mood and head of to work.He's been putting in the time and is looking forward to holidays.
I have been putting in a lot of hours, in the last 5 days I have already worked a total of 90 hours! I have been working night shifts,clients hubby is in the states, He should be returning within the week sometime. I haven't seen much of the family while working these hours, Hubby's at work by the time I get home, then I'm off to work before he returns home. Anthony is working, out hanging around with his girlfriend or sleeping......oh that's so a typical teen!
We are getting ready for our trip West, It will be so well deserved! Sad to say we do have to put Hubby's dad in his final resting place and that won't be easy. I'm so looking forward to Mom ( Jackie) She is a awesome woman whom I've really be blessed to have in my life.
Hubby and I are looking forward to camping, This alone time will be great, and we really do need it. He's been really good about me and the choice's I want to do, In fact he's kinda been pushing it, saying you need to do something you love doing. Go to school , get your degree , you can do it! This is great that I have total support from him. Our alone time will be good to go over things we both want for our future, and its great that we are on the same page.
I am also busy with Child Family Service's , I really enjoy the job and the challenges that come with it. There are a lot of families in crisis, when going out on a case, there is one thing I have learned, NO two cases are alike! This makes the job very interesting. I guess that is what made me choose the course that I'll be taking, its a 1.5 year course. Ten different subjects to obtain my degree in Applied Counselling. If I really enjoy it I can then use the credit's from this course to go another 1.5 years and then have my Bachelor Degree in Social Work. That is the long term goal.
Well thats what's new in my world, It's a nice day out and I'm going to enjoy it before going to work tonight. I wish all of you a GREAT day!!! :)
