There is a reason why I am starting a 3rd Blog. Keep visiting and maybe I’ll figure it out and post it one day. I used to have Broadband service but I shut it off during the summer because I just wasn’t using it enough to justify the expense. When I started school in September I said that I was going to turn it back on, but of course my bills jumped up and down and said “me first, me first!!!” So I put it off until my fiancé bullied me into hooking up the dial up service. Ughhhhh!!! I hate dial up!!!! It’s so freaking slow!!!! But you gotta do what you gotta do, right?
Now for those of you, who don’t know, my family is all over this net and I wanted to get back into the fray. Besides it probably the only way I can keep current with my cousin who fashions himself a recluse. You can check his website at: http://christopherscypher.com/MyThoughtsSimply.html
My sister also has a Blog site that I have been negligent in reading can also be reached here: http://theleoparddiva.bravejournal.com. She’s better at updating her Blog than I am so check her out!

I thought that I would be at a disadvantage since I haven’t been to school in over 8 years. But lo and behold I aced all my classes and made a bunch of friends in my first semester. It was almost too easy. I am on break right now and it feels excellent. I have a sense of direction and purpose that I didn’t have for so long. They say having goals is healthy and it’s true, I’m not so angry anymore and I drink a lot less now too. Next semester should be a breeze too because I registered late and all I could get was a psychology class and a math class but hey I want to get all the electives out of the way now so come September I can focus on my RT classes.
So I am almost done with my Christmas Shopping and am looking forward to spending the holidays with my crazy ass family. Before I had kids Christmas wasn’t a big deal form me. You know, once you grow up and get clothes and stuff, plus not being old enough to have a job to by gifts for everone; it kind of lost its magic for me. But once I got my own family and apartment a real job, Christmas became fun again. My sister tracked down all the old soul Christmas songs my mother played when we were kids. Not the traditional stuff played in department stores but classics artist like the temptations and four tops, Carla Thomas. My fiancé cringes when I play it but I play it every year while decorating the tree. My whole family converges on the
