Coming to a close

Cannot believe the end is finally here. It seems like this term has went especially quick. I am sure having the holiday's mixed in helped!! I think that I have learned a lot in this class. I believe that my writing skills have improved. At the beginning I was not too sure about this whole blogging thing. But honestly, now I see how much it can help. Not only does it get you writing more and thinking more, but it also gives a non formal way to "blow off steam" and discuss concerns with others that may be feeling the same way. Again, something I will continue to do from time to time. Hope others will do the same!! I am glad to have a break for a week. Yet, excited to see what the next term will be like.

Looks like I may have to have surgery to have a ganglion cyst removed. I have had one now since early in the last term. The first time, I went to my doc and he was able to aspirate, this time, he wasn't able to do that. He just shot it up with some steroids and I think I actually came out with more pain than I went it with. He said, if it doesn't shrink with the steroids I will have to have the surgery to remove it all together. I probably should have just went ahead and done it yesterday or at least scheduled it but now, I have to wait a couple weeks to see if it shrinks. Then of course, I will be into a new term and won't be able to do it until my next break!! I will just have to do!! Hopefully, I won't be in too much pain!!

I wish everyone much luck in this class and in future classes!! Thanks for a wonderful term!!

Almost There

Well, this week I think I will just take the opportunity to write. I have to be honest, I have felt quite stressed!! I procrastinate a lot when it comes to projects anyhow. This week I have two due on Tuesday!! Honestly, I am only about half done with the one for this class and still haven't started the one for my other class. I feel like I work better under pressure though, so this has something to do with it. Also, there is a lot going on in my personal life at the moment. My husband has been gone since right after Christmas and has been home for the weekend so it has been important for me to spend some time with him!! I am glad that the term is coming to a close and have had a great time in this class. I can't wait to have everything turned in and be able to take that sigh of relief. I wish everyone well in this class and in all others!!! Good luck all!!

Blogging in the Future

Will I continue blogging after this class?? You know, I think I will from time to time. Even if only to vent to other students who are probably going through similar situations as I. When I first read that question, I was going to say that I wouldn't continue. The reason being, I have Facebook and Myspace accounts and like 3 different email accounts, so I already blog, but on a smaller scale. However, being that through this blog, I have contact with many people in the same situation as I, I will probably use this as an outlet from time to time.

Comments~~ I have been please thus far with the comments I have received. Usually I receive anywhere from 1 to 4 comments which is plenty for me. Everyone has been very respectful and most have been able to relate in some respect to what I write, which is comforting. Speaking of which...I would like to thank everyone for wishing myself and my family well over the holiday break. We all got over our little bug and moved on to have a great holiday!! So, thanks to all those who expressed their concern and compassion!! Have a great week all!!
