April 18, 2012: just rambles

i sometimes wonder why i bother with somethings. went on a field trip today with my Foodservice IT class. we reviewed a great POS (point-of-sale) system for a restaurant, but my gripe was i wasted gas to go there when we could have easily reviewed it and several other systems online. granted it was at a food/restaurant supply convention here in San Anto, but we got there at 3 and it shut down at 4. not cool. and then, this morning i realized when i got to school, i didn't have a portable hard drive, my notebooks for class, or my earbuds. why did i bother getting out of bed. then i find out i was supposed to be in uniform for the field trip. not a cool day. lol... but at least i have my concert to look forward to on Saturday. leaving for Houston on Friday, so i'm so gonna skip class :) 
alex and donovan have science projects due tomorrow, and alex just doesn't get it. mom says he doesn't understand the timer that they are using, he doesn't get that you have to wait for it to go off. i worry about alex being able to get though school, to understand some of the higher functioning concepts. he understands math right now and does really well with reading, he has a little difficult with spelling some of the trickier words, like music and daddy, and some of the bigger words like father. but he does eventually learn them, just takes a little extra work. he is loving is new AlphaSmart writer. we are slowly learning how to use it. 
i'm actually sitting here in between classes while i type this today. my semester ends june 15th, but i stuck with a dilemma. my kids have asked me to take the summer semester off to spend time with them and take them to the zoo and stuff. stuff we missed doing last summer. but i am afraid that if i take off the semester, i won't have the get-up-and-go to go back in the fall. and i am so close to finishing. and my dad is coming down to visit this summer, and i don't want to say "sorry, i can't spend time with you because i have class". that would suck. i did contact my adviser to see if she can help or if she has any suggestions.
well, almost time for class, so gonna cut this off and pack, then head to class.

big smiles and Blessed Be everyone :)
