It’s been a few months since I’ve written a post. While I am not into excuses, life got in the way. One of the reasons I started blogging, I really felt it would help me to release a lot of feelings that I may not always be comfortable with sharing with close friends and/or family. However, I am not sure why I am comfortable with sharing it with the world. Maybe it’s because people you don’t know seem to be a little more honest than that ones we do. People close to you always seem to want everyone to think everything is great when in reality, we are all living in this dog-eat-dog world and doing our best to put on a brave face and survive each and every day. With so many school shooting, massing shootings, etc, it can be difficult at times.
My son has been home from school for the summer and he will be going back in a couple of weeks. While I love having my son home, it can be trying at times. I can definitely see the change in what type of young man he is developing into. He is definitely still trying to figure it all out and he believes he’s “grown.” Until he can’t figure it out, then he calls. LOL. At any rate, I am very proud of him and the man he is becoming.
I did finish my summer class with a B-. I really should have gotten an “A” but I did procrastinate and because of that, I fell behind. Once you get behind, it’s hard to catch up. I did manage to complete the course so I am thankful for that and now fall semester is right around the corner. I’ve decided to take 3 classes this semester but I would like to add a 4th. I’m so close to finishing and I really want to move on to university life. Honestly, I just want to be done with school so I can move on to the next phase of my life.
I had been seriously looking into volunteer work. I really wanted something that I would be able to use in the future and also gain some experience in the field I am studying. I am happy to announce, I have been accepted into the CASA training program. Upon successful completion of the training, passing background check, etc, I will be sworn in and assigned a child to begin working with. I am excited about this opportunity. I am seriously considering working with at risk children. Talk to me again in 4 years, LOL it may change.
Right now, this is where I am in life and I must say I am again finding my inner peace. I will make sure to blog at least once a week as I feel it does help me to relax. I love writing and inner peace is about doing things that you love and what makes you happy.
Until we meet again!
