Well it's that time again. The first tests of the summer semester is on Monday. I despise first tests. You never know how that particular professor is going to test, what style of tests will any particular professor use? You don't know what to study so you study EVERYTHING and it's hard to remember ANYTHING! I stress so much over the first test that I nearly become ill. So I have two tests with two different professors on Monday and they are both the day after Father's Day.
It's so hard to allot your time so that everyone gets attention and you spend enough time studying. Not only do I have to schedule study time but I also have to do the housework, mow the yard and I so need to do the laundry. There just isn't enough time in the day!
Freddy is a wonderful Dad. He has two boys, Wayne and Scotty, and we have Nicole. The boys have grown up to be great young men and Nicole is growing into an adult. Where did all the time go. Wayne and Scotty were 11 and 9 years old respectively when I came along. They are independent and have their own homes. I hope they have the life that they want. Nicole is still in school and I really hope that she likes digging in the dirt since she has been studying horticulture for the past three years. I don't know what is in the future but it sure has been a good ride with our kids.
Freddy is so patient with me and going to school. I have taken full loads every quarter or semester since September of 2006. I can't believe I've been in school this long! Three years! I took all college level classes at Coosa Valley Tech and had 71 hours invested there. Then I didn't like the Vascular Technology program after I got in it. In January of this year I transferred to Georgia Highlands College and became a freshman again. After checking my advising transcript today I found out I am now listed as a Sophomore. I still have two more years to go before I finish school. I so appreciate Freddy for sending me this long.
I hope that most days in life Freddy is content. He has such a stressful job! He is the Engineering Manager at Sara Lee here in Rome. There is always some kind of mechanical problem/project going on or some kind of issue with employees. I know though that he does a great job! I'm sure that though the sacrifices he makes to work at such a high stress occupation keeps him so busy we are glad to be able to live in our own home again.
After twenty-seven and a half years of marriage, we finally know most everything about each other. I know what he likes and doesn't like. I know most of the time what he's thinking. I know what kind of clothes he likes. I know he loves photography. I know he loves his family. I know that he loves Lexi, our Yorkie. I know he loves to eat fresh strawberries. I know he loves God. I know he loves to pick his guitar and sing songs that he wrote. He also likes to sing in the choir. I know so many things about him, and yet, there is much I don't know about him. He can still surprise me after all these years. That's the best part of being his wife.
Life may be hectic, without enough time in the day to do all I need to do, but I'm privileged to be in school, I'm happy to be a mother and step-mother and I'm happy to be a wife. Living Life, wouldn't take anything for living in my zoo!
