Home

Approx. 115 days until we leave. That is just over 16 weeks. Leaving me ample time to stress, so why am I stressing so much right now? I need to focus on my two new classes. We are on week 5 and I haven't really sunk my teeth in yet. I am falling farther and farther behind. Every time I try to concentrate my mind wanders to all the things I have to do for the move and for Christmas etc.

I got my scores for the two classes I just completed. In the Internet: A practical guide class which is basically an introduction to html I got 99.8 as my final score, pretty good. For my other class, Java programming II, I got an A. The teacher only graded 3 out of the 5 programs I completed for the class, I got 100, 95, and 100 on those assignments and a 95 on the final. However, I am upset that two of my programs he never bothered to even grade. I did get an A in the course, but that isn't the point, I would have appreciated some feedback on my work. Am I on the right track? Is there a different way of approaching the subject? It is all very frustrating.

Lily seems to be coming down with a cold. She is fussy and has a bit of a stuffy nose. I am going to buckle down and get some homework done today during Lily's nap. Try to quit dreaming of the lovely house I want to buy. I have been doing so much research, I found a fema map showing which homes were flooded by Katrina. I found several good school comparison websites. When I find a house we can afford in an area of a good school, I check to see if that house was flooded and then bookmark the house. So far out of about 2000 houses I have found 10 that meet my criteria. But, one of those houses is my dream! It is so perfect! But it is so long before I move and with there being so few homes for sale that were not flooded by Katrina I am afraid it will be scooped up. No sense getting my hopes up, whatever will happen will happen. I just cannot wrap my mind around the fact that we are going to be home owners. Back to homework!
