Being Skooled (I know I spelled it wrong :)



So last night I spent 4 hours in a coffee shop working on a paper. I thought wow! It takes me a little bit more effort to get my creative juices flowing now as opposed to when I was in my undergrad.

Life was easier when I was in college and all I had to do was school. Now with working more then full time, in the process of moving, relationships and life and then SCHOOL on top of that ….phew!

So I was driving home, after working on my paper, and telling James that I am coming to a resolved that even if I don’t get A’s on all of my assignments that I am ok with that. Because something’s gotta give here or otherwise I am going to spontaneously combust. I said so far in my research/social work stats class I have gotten 100% on my first 3 assignments. But I had yet to be back my first big paper to see my grade.

So I said I will put this new me being ok with not always getting A’s into practice mode.

I walked in the door and there my paper was, waiting for me to open it, to see what my professor had given me on the paper.

I walk over

Open it……

And guess who got a 97% on her paper!!!!!


So I don’t have to be alright with not getting a’s, cause I got one!


Now this post may seem like I am bragging, but I am not. Well maybe a little I am J, but really I am just proud of myself and since I am not facebooking right now I wanted to share in a non look at me kind of way, so this is my outlet. Life has been crazy and its nice to know that after being out of college for almost 5 years that I may still have the hang of this being skooled thing.

On another great happy note when I walked out the door this morning, the peak looked absolutely beautiful as it was snow covered, and all the trees surrounding it were also.
Like a white blanket was placed over them.

I tried to leave my house in time to make to chick fil a for free chick n minis for customer appreciation week, cause they are like crack in my mouth. But alas I didn’t leave in time to make it there. Sad :(
But I did get to see pretty mountains instead and for this girl that even better. I love my mountains. I feel so blessed to live where I do.
