Light at the end of the Tunnel!

This semester has been by far one of the most hectic semesters I have experienced since I began taking classes at SWIC August of 2009. I think the worst part is that I only had 9 hours of classes this semester and 12 - 14 hours for the previous two semesters. This does not make sense to me, but I am so glad it is almost over. I am looking forward to having about a month off for the Holidays.

We have been doing more construction on our sun-room  last week and this week. I have painted the room twice because the first color I chose was a darker brown and Tim hated it. Now it is a light tan and it looks very nice. We are almost done with all of the trim and crown molding. In that room there are two large beams that run the width of the room. We wrapped those beams in cherry stained pine, and it is so beautiful. We are finally almost done with the construction stuff for a while.

I had an interview yesterday to start driving the school bus again. I start my refresher courses tomorrow. Prior to going to school I had driven a school bus for 7 years. I miss it believe it or not. I figure it is the perfect job for someone attending classes full-time. I only have to drive two hours in the morning and two hours in afternoon, and what ever field trips I take during the school year. The best part about the job is I get to be off in summer when the kids are off of school. This is cool to me cause I don't have to miss this time with my kids. However, next summer I hope to be starting the nursing program at the Belleville SWIC.

Well on top of all the construction, homework, studying, and stress this semester has been fun. I have learned a lot about the community I live in. It has some interesting history, and members. I hope everyone has a great week, and good luck to all on finals!
