June 5: Lots on My Mind

I am back in school and trying to figure out a schedule.  Funny part is that one of the classes will be over next week and I still have know idea what kind of schedule I have.  My Business Law class is only one month long but meets 8 hours a week with all exams taken online.  My Consumer Behavior class is an 8 week online class that means I have to focus and remember to do the work.  Did you ever have that nightmare dream where you failed a class because you did not even remember you had it, so you did not graduate and there were no do-overs?  I am having it.

We did finish putting everything back in order after our Shop Open House and rummage sale weekend.  It was a fun and profitable weekend, but ohhhhhhhhhhhh the exhaustion!

Dad only has a few appointments this week, and since he got the new hearing aids we have seen some very positive changes for him.  More jokes, more laughter, and more interest in everything.  Guess we all take our hearing for granted until we see just what happens to someone who can once again hear.  We bought him a "Happy Hearing Day" present today.  He has all kinds of CDs that he use to play all the time, then he just quit because it was getting so hard to hear all the words.  Tonight he was downstairs listening to Mel Tillis and singing along with his gorgeous voice.  Made me a bit teary!

Our daughter is having some medical issues that concern me, but I do not know enough to understand what it is or what needs to happen.  Internet research is always scary, so I made a list of questions for her to ask at her appointment with the specialist next week.  She has her own list, as well.  Anyone know anything about Chiari Malformation?  Seems to be what is causing her migraines and constant headaches.  Prayers are requested!

Jon and Aleah have once again cleaned out the basement of their home.  There was a lot of rain, a poorly planned sewer system and sewage involved.  This is the second time!  Can't even imagine!

All of these things run around in my head and wake me in the night, but in general life is great and the weather is to my liking.

Life is GOOD!
