So much has been going on lately that i have no time for anything, including this.
I just finished my fourth class. YAY!!! I am so glad to be done with it. I seriously think my professor hates me and idk why. I do everything just like she says and she still takes off soooo many points. It makes me so freaking mad. But what can ya do?!? Not a thing.
The kids are great as always. Dorian is so close to being potty trained, I can almost...well, i don't have a good expression, but yea. Today he went the WHOLE day with no accidents. I am so glad. Mostly because that means no more toddler poop that I have to clean out of underwear. YAY for me. He did so good today, and was behaving really well and then BAM! he threw up ALL over the kitchen. I have no idea why. He was fine all day and then I sat him down to eat dinner and he wouldn't eat. Then he got sick. I am hoping it was just a fluke. He was a little congested this morning so he could have just gagged on flegm, but I really don't think that is the case. We shall see.
Elena is walking so well now. Practically running. That girl amazes me. I mean she turned 11 months yesterday and she acts so big. And she is talking SOOO much. She said "duck" and "backpack" today. (thank you Dora.) She can probably say 15 words at least already. (Mama, dudu [thats what she calls Dorian], papa, uh [for uh-oh], duck, backpack, sock, chiche, this, that, yes, mine, bath, night, bye, hi...ok well thats all i can think of but thats 1, 2....16. Wow. Thats incredible. I really need to make some new videos of her and Dorian. She loves "The wheels on the bus" lately and if I sing it or she hears it she tried to do the motions. Absolutely adorable. That is def something I need to record. I will want to see that one day. I am sure of it. I did record her and Dorian playing the other day. They are so sweet to each other and I really hope it stays that way forever. I hope they always have each other.
So...school is going. I just finish my fourth class like I said. Literally, like I just turned my final project in before I got on here. I still have a few "loose ends" to tie up, but not much. And I am really glad its over. I start my next class thursday. Its basic drafting, which under normal circumstances would be great, but these classes are so fast paced that I do not know if it will be as fun as I hope. I cannot wait to be able to just do drafting all day for work. That will be great. But anyways, this new class is going to break me financially. I got $120 voucher for books each quarter (which is 2 classes for me) and the books for this class are $95 and $157. Are you kidding me. Which mean I am going to have to buy the more expensive one out of pocket, plus the supplies, which are costing me almost $200. And there will be no voucher money left for the next classes books. UGH! I didn't think that it would be this much out of pocket. These classes are only 5.5 weeks long, so I hope that I will need this stuff for every assignment and for future classes. I mean its ridiculous. The class Ijust finish, I had to buy $30 worth of art supplies out of pocket and used them for ONE assignment. I am going to complain about that on the survey for the class. I shouldn't have to pay all of this out of poacket, plus accumulate student loans for the school, so that I use the stuff once. Its retarded.
Well, on to a better subject. I haven't had any time lately to scrap!! I am so sad. But I have got some really great new stuff and a few crafts under my belt. I made these wall letter for a lady on the scrapbooking board on BBC. I think they turned out awesome. I am probably going to dor Dorian's the same way (when I have a chance). I also mod podged this trinket box to look like a treasure box. It looks so awesome. I will post pics of both things as soon as I upload them.
Rosvin is, if everything works out, which it NEVER does in the Army, going to Ranger school in a few weeks. When that happens I am sure that i will have many sleepless nights that I can "catch up" on all of the scrapping that i haven't been able to do lately. At least it will keep me busy, if this next class doesn't. I really hope things work out so that he gets to go this time and that he passes everything the first time. I hate that he will be gone, but they keep telling us he is going to this and that and then change their minds. I just want him to get it all over with so he can be here with us. If he goes he is going to miss Elena's first birthday and mine birthday. Plus, who know what else. We are going to have her birthday next weekend so that he will be able to be here to at least celebrate. He was in Iraq for Dorian's first birthday. The Army says they care about families, but they don't. They give you what you need to take care of your family, but that you away from them. It like they think they can trade a decent lifestyle for time that you can never get back. Its not easy I will tell you that much. But I won't get into all that right now.
I am gonna get off of here for now. My wrist is hurting from being on the compu so long. (I had to redo my entire project)! I will post new stuff later.
