Summers Come And Summers Go

The most dreaded countdown of the year has begun.  There are only 3 more days left of summer vacation.  And this back to school season will be extra stressful.  Not only am I coming back to my two jobs on the 4th; I am starting my first semester of the Rutger's University Online MLIS Program the day before!!  Don't get me wrong, I am extremely excited to start the new school year; but I wish everything wasn't being thrown back at me all at once.  I almost wish the MLIS program started a week earlier so I could get myself on a study schedule before going back to work.  Oh well.  I am ready.  I am motivated.  I have a ton of support, and it will all work out!!  Besides, Fall is my favorite season.  The crisp cool air, the gorgeous colored leaves, and the smell of apple cider, pumpkins, and fresh pencils and notebooks!!  I just want to go for long hikes in the woods, carve a pumpkin and make apple pies.  Something tells me this will be a Fall I will never forget!!  

One Small Step At A Time!

For the first time in my 24 years of life, I spent two nights in the house all alone. I admit I was nervous at first, especially when it got dark. My head would go through all the worst case senarios and make me jittery. But I worked through it and made it through. I now believe I can live by myself in my own apartment!.
