anticipation

I start back to school in ONE week!  eep!  It seems like everyone else is starting back today, but we still have another week.  I’m sure that’s great for everyone else but I am SO ready to get started!   (shoutout to Shannon B, who is probably rocking her first day at her new gig!!)

I seriously feel like I’m a kindergartener starting school for the first time, lol.  I have nervous butterflies in my tummy and I’m just really excited.  I know I’ll rock my nutrition classes but I’m a bit scared about all the chemistry classes I’m going to be taking. 

I’m also a little nervous being so old, lol.  OK I’m not decrepit or anything, at least I’m still in my 20’s for the time being.  But I’m still considered undergrad right now so I’ll be in all the classes with the “kids” right out of high school.  yikes!  I hope I’m not the annoying old lady in class that asks tons of questions and sits in the front row right in front of the teacher.  (though in my defense I have really bad eye sight even with glasses on so I probably should be sitting in the front row just to be able to kindof see).

Anyhoo, as soon as my financial aid comes through and I get my refund moo-lah (which hopefully will be tomorrow) I’m going to go buy my books and time my drive to campus to see if I can find a way that takes less than 1 hr 10 mins.  The drive is gonna suck I’m not going to lie, especially because it’s a busy interstate and I’ll be going back and forth during rush hour most days.  And I’m such a dork that once I get my books I’ll actually probably start studying.  I know I know, it’s painful to be this much of a nerd!

Soooooo anyway.  Today’s breakfast was a rerun of yesterdays.  Leftover biscuits with a bit of strawberry preserves!

Then I went on a cleaning/organizing spree.  I hit the office pretty hard.  It’s been needing to be cleaned since May and I made myself do it today.  I’m going to need the space once school gets going!  And since I was already in cleaning mode I cleaned the living room and hallway carpet.  It’s been a while and it really needed it.  This afternoon I’m going to hit the bedroom- I need to change the sheets and tidy up a bit in there as well.

Right now I’m on lunch break.  I made little pizzas with an english muffin.  I toasted it up a little, then put on some leftover marinara sauce that we had in the fridge, then a sprinkle of cheese and back in the oven till melty and delish!

And a nanner.  I haven’t been getting in enough fruits and veggies lately.  I need to get on that!

Well, I hear the pupster whining, so I guess she’s done with her nap.  Yes, I totally put her down for a nap like a kid! lol!  I better go get her out of her kennel before she throws a fit.

Dinner tonight is baked macaroni and cheeeeeese!  Can’t wait!
