Whirlwind of STRESS!..and a brief break.

So life has been keeping me on my toes.

First of all, my good news is that I have been on a no sugar, no cards diet for two weeks now and have lost 17lbs. It's about time! It's been hard and I've been tested with Pizza for fight night, Halloween, and Mom and Jill visiting and eating what I can't wat right in front of me. Yea! HARD! But I made it and am still going strong.

So I have been struggling in one of my classes (I got my first EVER F on a quiz) so it's like Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat and Sun I am happy and then Tues and Thur is my afternoon from HELL! My class is Interior Decorating History...BORING! Plus, I have never been a good test taker and that's all that our grade consists of...grrr! Thankfully, I will still graduate next semester, but I ALMOST didn't since I found out that one of the classes I need was not going to be offered anymore. So it wasn't offered this semester and never again. AHH! (this is where the anxiety kicks in)So after MANY anxiety attacks and many hours, I was able to figure out a way to still make it. YAY!

So I have been VERY stressed with my class and with registration. The nice part was that Mom and Jill came to play for the weekend.
Us girls went shoe shopping (I've never enjoyed this activity, but I REALLY had a great time) all day, Jill changed her hair to be a blond, we enjoyed Trick-or-Treaters, went to the corn maze (lasted 20 min-constantly hitting dead ends-apparently there's only ONe way through-and then got hot (96 degrees and then add corn all around you!) and left), and then played games all of Sunday. It was such a breath of fresh air!
Then they left me to deal with my forgotten but none-the-less-back stress and anxiety. Now at this point, I am registered and have voted, and now needs to dive into my VERY messy house.
Oh joy!
I just keep thinking that I have four weeks left of school and then one more semester. I'm ALMOST done!!

Okay..I'm done.Thanks for listening.

Sounds like you have been TOTALLY busy. Just think how great it is going to be when it is all finished. I remember I cried with joy having to never take another test:) Sounds like you need a girls night. We all need to have one soon:)
I made the girls tutu's and Gracie's wings for their costumes. I'm glad you like them. They turned out pretty cute!!

I was unaware eating cards were a cause of weight gain. Do you prefer regular playing cards or cards of the "go fish" variety. ;p
