My decision and other stuff.....

Well, I made my decision on whether or not to try and get that part time job I had an interview for or to continue in my class. I cancelled my interview that was scheduled for yesterday and decided to continue with my schooling. The determining factor was figuring out how long I would have had to work at that job just to pay for the class I would have had to drop since it is free for me this quarter (through WorkSource since Eric is not working). It would have taken me more than a month to bring home enough money to pay for the class and book for next quarter plus it would have set me back a quarter and potentially a year in the program. I do feel guilty but it just didn't seem to make much sense. I actually was disappointed because the job sounded really fun and was just around the corner. It was only 12 hours a week which would have been nice if I wasn't in class but wasn't enough if I was going to have to drop it. Anyway, decision is made and I feel like it was the right one. I hope I won't regret it later.
Class is going really well and I am enjoying it very much. It has been and will continue to be very time consuming and require a lot of studying but it's manageable and very interesting so it makes it nice. Our first test was yesterday and I did really well. Next, we have our bones test. Yippee!
The girls are doing marvelous. They both had their yearly check ups this morning and did wonderfully. Our only problem was when the nurse came in to give the girls their flu shots. Kennedy did great because she didn't remember they actually hurt a little. A little jerk from her and an "owe" and that was it. Madison, on the other hand, was in hysterics. She was screaming and completely panicking. I felt horrible for her but forced her to have one by holding her arms down while the nurse held her legs. Another nurse had to come in to help because she was crying so loudly. She was fine about 5-10 minutes later but it's got me seriously reconsidering my plan to get her one of her kindergarten shots every few months so she will have them all by next year. I only like to get them one at a time but I don't know if I can do this to her five times during the next year. Ugh!
My camera should arrive today and I'm excited. I feel very weird without one to capture moments as they happen in the lives of the girls. I wanted to take some pictures of them at the doctor's office today but couldn't. Madison told me when I mentioned it that she wouldn't have wanted me to anyway so I guess it's better that I didn't have it. Both girls continue to measure tall for their age (M 90% and K 80%). Both are very healthy and developing wonderfully. I couldn't ask for anything more!
As I read a few more blogs of people I know I am becoming aware that my blogs seem to be a bit more personal than most. I'm thinking I should stop using my blog as my personal diary and remember people out there (some of whom I don't know very well or haven't known for many years) are reading the personal details of my life. I don't really express things very personal to people so I guess this has been my outlet. I may try and censor myself a little more, it seems I have just felt the need to let it all hang out here and maybe that's not the best idea. I never know who is reading it and what they know and as things get more personal I am starting to wonder what/how much people know. It's easy for me to say now but when I'm sitting alone at my computer starting a post it's not usually something I think about so we'll see.
Anyway, enough of this long and babbling post. K is still up and wouldn't go down for a nap so I'm going to attempt a little studying with her awake but I'm sure I'll find out very soon that's not such a good idea.
Until next time.
