Alright, so I lag...

Yes, my life IS hectic. Don't think that just because I run around at a frenetic pace, that I think I'm exempt from blogging. I hope y'all missed me!!!

Times, they are a'changin'... I have another child coming to live with me soon, so I will be single parent to TWO children now instead of just one--this does NOT mean double the parenting; it works in a compounded-interest sort of way. I am excited and extremely scared. There is not really physical space for three girls to be living in our limited square footage, let alone sharing a bathroom, but we'll make it work!

I am starting a five-week course at school here in a couple of weeks (that said, I should throw this in: 5-week courses at Cal Poly in the Summer mean that they pack 10-weeks worth of instruction into half the time. The particular course I chose to take is known for it's daunting courseload and subject matter at the 10-week pace -- what can I say, I'm a glutton for punishment!) I just want to juggle all the balls in my circus-of-a-life in an orderly fashion (is that a misnomer of sorts???) Once, again, I think I may be expecting too much. I just want to do a good job at all my duties. Once again, a little (or a LOT) of prayer here couldn't hurt a bit!

All that said, I just started a Research Internship for my first quarter to prepare myself as an undergraduate to have a stellar resume-of-sorts to send to grad schools so that I can pursue a higher degree (I plan to get my PhD. but what I work on is what will happen, God-willing)... I just have to do the footwork. So, now it's on to GRE's, grad school research (which I've been doing for at least a month now) and applications galore. Keep me in your thoughts and prayers!
