I'm sorry for my long absence oh wonderful reader! I had great intentions of taking one semester off and acquiring 2 exemptions from my program while also taking the emergency first aid course.

I did none of that.

But I do want to finish this program! So I am registered in a new course for this winter. The Art of Eating and Dining. I took the first class this past Saturday morning. ( I need to point out what an incredible sacrifice this for me to give up my Saturday morning for 4 months)
I try not to think about it.
I tried not to think about it as I stood in the dark, in minus 1 million degree weather, while it was snowing, waiting for my bus at 7:15 AM.
My body does not register life until at least 9:00 AM.

But when I got on the bus, it was so warm and comfy. I almost forgave the school for scheduling my class at a sub-human time on Saturday.
I listened to classical music on my new iTouch (yes I am spoiled) and watched the sun come up as I settled into my nice, warm, soft seat.
Sunrises are beautiful.
I'm beginning to see the point of mornings......but don't tell anyone.

My class was actually the second class in the course since I was away for the first. I found out that I will have my first writing assignment and quiz due in two weeks.
No pressure, guess I'm hitting the ground running.
I don't have the text book yet. Haven't downloaded the notes yet...... kinda struggling to get up to speed.

January sleepies have got me, I just want to hibernate and plant seeds for my garden.

Probably get the textbook tomorrow.
