Hi everybody, it's a new year and I just realized I haven't posted anything. Well, so I am still here. Been busy but still here.
I would like to tell ya'll a little bit about what I have been up to. Going back to school again. I say again because I accidently forgot to get things squared away to get funding for last semeser in time so I missed out. Things have gotten better at home - in our little cabin. I don't have any new pictures to post but I will as soon as we get over this terrible weather.

Here are some little things that have changed in my life.
    Work is better.
     Co-workers are better.
    Hubby is better.
    Doggies are better.
    Going to school part-time and working full-time.
    Making better food choices to eat better. (Trying to and going to follow a diabetic diet eventhough I am not diabetic yet - I expect I will be if I don't do something now.)
    Son is better.
    Finances are better. (Still have internet to write this blog. lol)
    I can still make the best sweet tea in Arkansas.
    

I have so much to say and that I want to blog about that I don't know where to start. I think I will start with what I am doing. Going to school. Getting an associated degree in Paralegal. I feel like a professional student. I have a bachelor's degree in English and I have gotten a pretty good job because of it but it wasn't a technical degree. I think this techcical degree will help me out in pursuing a career that is better suited to me. 

Having this degree is just the first step I am going to take because I also want an associates in business with the emphasis in management and supervision. I never had any class in my four years at the university in how to manage others so I think this class will help me out a lot.

I am taking 3 classes online. One is a business class in Office Supervision and Management. It is pretty detailed but as long as I can keep up I think I can get an "A" out of this class. The teacher is pretty strict but since it is an online class I know I can take my time and learn on my own. Another class is called Torts. I had the teacher for a class I had last Spring called "Wills". I didn't do as well as I thought I would in that class. I had only gotten a "B" because I didn't know what to expect from the class nor the teacher. But I think this time for this class I can get that "A" because I am that determined to learn this stuff. And my last class is called "Legal Writing and Research II" from a teacher who I have had 3 previous classes from so I know what to expect from her. I have learned a lot because it is a webinar class and we have actually had to meet at a law library here in Little Rock. I love to do research and and the writing part is right up my ally.

I will try to get some pictures of things on here instead of all this typing and reading because I know you would rather see pictures. So here are a few from my facebook page that I would like to share.
