Work, Work, Work

Does it really matter

Such is life

I for some reason can not seem to be the person that I expect my children to be.  I have my son do his homework every night and make it a point to show him how important it is for his life.  Do I do this for my life and my future?  Of course not I have been the biggest slacker and procrastinator I know.  I have not been reading, studing and just getting the C instead of working for the A.  What is it that we have done to ourselves that we expect excellence from our children but show them that we do not work for excellence.

Thanks Giving

For Thanksgiving I went with my family to the Cayman Islands for the holiday week.  We had a great time playing with the ocean wildlife.  My daughter and son got to play with sting rays, sea turtles, and snorkled to see other cool fish.  We did not get to just lay on the beach because we was not there for long enough.  I also thought the side of the island we stayed on was much windier.  We did have to drive to the other side to many of the activities that we wanted to do.  Overall it was a great week but it did not make me feel less stressed because of all the work I have to accomplish in the next two weeks between school and work.

What is wrong with politics

Okay I have just learned that congressmen, and senators are able to legally do insider training.  They have shown now that they are the best stock brokers.  That hedge fund analysts have nothing on them.  They say that they do not know what they are talking about, they would not have done something like that.  I cannot believe that they would have something legal for the government officials but illegal for us americans.  I just keep seeing what we are doing with government and am completely disappointed.

Social Life

Something exciting is happening this weekend that I always enjoy.  Upward basketball and cheerleading is doing evaluations.  This is exciting for me because I have been apart of it for 3 years now and enjoy seeing the kids that came last year to see how big they are getting.  I really enjoy to see the positive sports experience with GOD the focus.  I enjoy working with the kids to show them that they can play sports and show GOD glory through sports.  I hope that they take that onto their future sports roles:)

Student Life

Okay it is starting to get down to the wire for school work.  However, now I have work that has many due dates that are soon.  I am working nights and weekends that I have no idea what I have been working in and taking much less time to work on the mass of papers that are due.  I am trying to burn the candle at both ends and feel like I have little patience for social issues.  I am trying to know my limit on committments with outside influences. 

Week 6

Lately I have been wondering how I am able to access a spreadsheet on different computers without having to email it to myself or remember a jump drive.  I was saying to myself there has to be something on the internet where I am able to access a newtork and update a spreadsheet from anywhere without wondering if I have the most current with me.  The worst is when I am using my laptop and I do not have an updated version of the spreadsheet I use daily for work.  This makes my life so painful because I do not have the notes or any changes.  Well today in class it was eye opening because on Naomi bringing up google docs.  Holy crap this is what I have been looking for a place where I can access change from anywhere.  Thanks Naomi for bringing me into the light.  I was going to google it this week but she saved me time.  What a relief, but the only problem is when I need a new version and I have no access to Internet.  Guess one bridge at a time.
