Caden started first grade last week. I am so excited for him! His first day began a little rough for both of us. He didn't even want to step into his class. He was so shy!! I saw tears in his eyes when he took a seat. I thought of him all throughout the day. I remembered what it was like being in a new class with a new teacher. Being all alone in a room full of strangers. But when I picked him up from the youth center, he told me he had a GREAT day! He likes his teacher and there are several kids in his class that were in his kindergarten class. I wanted to cry, I was so happy! I guess the big-baby mom really is in me.He wasn't the only one who started school last week. Guess who else! ME! I'm finally back in the game. I stopped when my divorce started four years ago and I am finally at a place in my life where I am comfortable with taking classes and working towards my degree. And I am so friggin psyched!
I am pursuing my B.S. in Investigative Forensics and am about halfway there. I started my Intro to Investigative Forensics class last week and had a TON of homework. Oh my goodness. The reading, the conference discussions, the homework assignments and the brainstorming for a paper. All in one week. I love it.
So right now it is 1:32 a.m.. I've been working on homework. I have one more assignment that's due by 11:59 p.m. tomorrow night and then I'm done. This week I have to choose a forensic discipline I might want to work in and begin writing a paper on it. There are only A LOT to choose from.
Forensic pathology (dead bodies, cause of death, etc),
Forensic physical anthropology (skeletal remains, identification of corpses),
Forensic odontology (teeth, bite marks), Forensic toxicology (poisons)
and Forensic entomology (insects at death scenes).
It's challenging trying to juggle work, mommying, housework, pet care, AND school all at the same time. But here I am blogging about it so I guess I found a way to make it work. Yay!
Coffee.
It gets the homework done.
That is all.
