My Business Law and Family Law classes are probably the most challenging classes I have this semester.  Not to say that Legal Aspects of Real Estate or Intro to Law are not challenging, it’s just that the instructors of the first two have higher expectations and it’s much harder to get A’s in their classes.

I started back to school at the beginning of the year and was both excited and nervous!  I was excited because I was going to be taking classes for a new career that would allow me to support my family.  I was nervous because I was probably going to be older than the many students […]...

As a busy mama to 3 boys, as well as a full-time student, my blog has received less attention than it’s accustomed to receiving.  The time I have to spend on it has decreased from what it used to be as I try to put my life back together.  It’s not intentional, but sometimes, I […]...

It’s that wonderful time of year – flu season!  Yuck!  Not only is it horrible for the child (or adult) who is achy, feverish, and throwing up, but for the parent (or person) who comes in to clean it up.  I’ve cleaned up so much vomit in the past few days that I’m starting to […]...
