We're done ......almost

It's the Tuesday before we have to post another entry.....I need to have this done by tomorrow am......boy....life is soooo busy at the moment.....but somehow I always manage to get everything done.

Well.....it was worthwhile, it was valuable.

I would have liked to gain more confidence with the IT side of things but it will take practice & persistence.....& to be honest, I haven't really given it much time as I'm a tad time poor.

We'll all get together in two weeks to have a good debrief about it -that will be good....

Have to get a babysitter though as Ari is at a seminar......I've rsvp'ed already so will just make it happen somehow....

Ann's been a great, consistent support.

More later.....signing off now.

Light at the end of the tunnel

Somehow the weeks have passed & I've submitted another assignment....the course is soon over.....& somehow I've managed to do most things required.
It will be however a relief to know it's completed as at the moment I've always got this feeling.....that I need to be doing something for the course.
This is how students must feel constantly during trimesters.....& I recall feeling like this when I was back at uni.....but then without realising...the weeks pass & the term is complete & somehow you get through.
I can't be on the phone tonight for the teleconference which isn't great but it's the exact time when I've got to bath the girls, get them into their pj's & read them a few stories & put them to bed.
Even the graduation isn't going to be easy...checked with Ari, he has an important seminar he must attend that night (of course).....so I'm going to have to get a baby sitter - it's difficult coz if I can't get one of their child care staff......it's someone they dont know which won't work.....
It's multi tasking between thinking, mothering, jni'ing, my other job.....it's quite full on really but we manage.
I've learnt a few things...the forums have been helpful....
The assessments have been ok...have I learned alot?...probably a bit in reality.....
I suppose I would have liked to learn more about the IT side of things which hasn't happened to the degree I'd like it too but I believe I haven't really applied myself & persevered with this all.
Anyway...it's been another learning experience where you take some things away in your bag of tricks & skills learned along the way.....
