School starts a week from tomorrow. I was excited up until now. My attempts to get ahead in my schoolwork have failed thus far, but I'm not giving up. I am off work today so my plan is to get to whipping my brain into shape pretty soon here. I spent about an hour yesterday doing accounting homework. I made it through about 1/3 of a chapter. Yikes. Not sure if it's because I was so completely bored with the material that I had to re-read sections over and over again or if I really just don't understand it.
In my attempts to get my homework done, I went and sat at Starbucks. I went up to the counter to order my grande soy chai, and the guy looked at me all judging and said "Umm, you realize there is caffeine in chai, right?" I wanted to punch him in the face. Instead, I laughed and said, "Yes, and I am allowed to have a small amount of caffeine, thank you." Idiot.
Which reminds me, I AM working on cutting out the caffeine in the next few weeks. I think I've done pretty well so far. I am down to one small caffeinated beverage a day. Yay me.
As for the regular pregnancy stuff, I had my blood tests for gestational diabetes and anemia at my last visit 2 weeks ago. My whole arm turned purple, but I haven't heard anything from the doctor, so I am assuming that is good news. My next visit is scheduled for the 23rd and I get an ultrasound to determine fetal development. Hopefully, because I'm measuring way ahead, they will move my due date up. If not, I already know I'm going to have a chubby little baby. =)
Well, I suppose I should be off doing homework and the million other things that need to get done today.
Ugh I am getting so impatient to see this little baby. You must be dying! Ignore judgy people its something you you will always have to deal with as a mom. No matter what there will always be someone who thinks they know more than you or who thinks they can do a Better job than you. Usually people who don't have kids. You are doing just fine already and I have no doubt you will continue to do it. As for the homework maybe its not so much about being way ahead as it is just making sure you keep working on it every day. If you keep chugging along you will at least be on time if not ahead. A little everyday will get you farther than you think. Hang in there you are almost done!
