oh geez

So much has happened since my last post here but yet it feels as though nothing has. Sharon is still in Haiti (for now). Chad is still in Afghanistan (for now). My half of the family still resides in IN (for now). And I still feel like I'm losing my mind.

At the end of August I started classes back at WKU. Guess I was thinking it'd help pass the time while Chad and Sharon were gone... wow I was right. This past month has flown by and I feel like I haven't learned a thing. (yet here I sit posting on here instead of studying for my A&P exam tomorrow) 

I have been feeling ill but I'm struggling with deciphering whether I'm truly ill or if it's a mental thing. I would venture to say mostly the 2nd. Between work and school I only have Sunday's off. Due to mandatory OT I am working 37 hours a week and attending 13 hrs worth of classes every week.... Ugh.  So much for sleeping and studying. Oh, the life of the movie character who can only go to class and never has to work or study... lol 

At any rate I am busy. This helps but I feel like I lose a part of myself in the rush. (but the mirror tells me that is just my emotions talking).

Chad is soon to be coming home for his R&R this means he will get 2 weeks off to come home. I do not have a word in my vocabulary to cover the level of excitement and joy I have in my heart about this event. We do not know when exactly he will be stateside but he will be leaving Afghanistan in the next week and it will take several days for him to get to Atlanta. Then he'll fly on to Nashville.

This has been a nice rambling study break but I have to get back to A&P.... yuck...
