giving some thanks

so i had written a beautiful and wonderful blog about some of the things i’m grateful and then my stupid computer (which i am not grateful for at the moment) decided to cut my internet connection. good bye beautiful blog. well, i’m here to try again.

Here’s a small list of things that i’m grateful for:

My Husband

 

Family

Friends

 

my Favorite feline

these are a few of my favorite things.

and i’m very grateful for all of them :)

busy as a bee…but we aren’t even halfway through the hive…

Have you ever worked

and worked

and worked

and worked

and worked

and worked

and worked

and worked

and worked
and…

(well you get it)

then you take some time to reflect on ALL that work you did and suddenly you realize that you’ve only begun to scrape away dirt from the mountain you have to tunnel through?

well…i have.

we have.

we are doing that right now. we’re up to our eyeballs in books and articles; i would not be surprised to see tomorrow’s headline read “WONDERFUL COUPLE HORRIBIBLY MUTILATED BY MASS INFLICTION OF DEEP PAPERCUTS”

granted that whoever wrote that will probably lose their job because the title is so long there will be no room for the picture, but you get the idea.

i’ve decided i’m going to order Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in French. i’ll read it out loud, that way i can practice my pronunciation as well as gain a better grasp on the language.

time to get back to the masses of paper.

wish us luck…

i feel dumb

ever say something in class that YOU felt was really relevant and everyone just stares at you like “Why is she still talking?”

just had that experience.

luckily i have a wonderful husband who understands my comments and sees their relevance. i’m not crazy! :)

DAMN DAMN DAMN!

i cannot find ONE online french 201 class without fully enrolling (as in taking a whole new bachelor's worth of classes) in an online school. the only french online classes Byu provo offers are PSYCHO hard. We're talking my Renaissance class all over but IN FRENCH! I can barely understand half of it and IT IS IN ENGLISH!

To top it off Jake didn't do so hot in his Korean test so it looks like we might be stuck here a lot longer than either of us planned. I love reading and learning, but I'm so tired of jumping through impossible hoops. i thought High school was all about jumping through hoops and college would be learning for the sake of learning. Nope. Now the hoops are on fire and there's a vat of boiling lava underneath it in case you don't jump far enough.

i don't know what to do. i need magic to *poof* me some solutions.

help...
