the next chapter...

my classes start tomorrow.  i'm nervous.  online classes take a lot of discipline--i can't slack off.  i'm working to make schedules and lists to keep myself on track.  I'm going to wake up at 6:30 to check the class and make a plan each day.  i'm putting aside 2 hours most nights to work on assignments.  my first paper is due 2 weeks from today.  it deals with chaucer's canterbury tales, which gave me troubles in high school. i've been giving the assignment some thought.  i've also been giving my final research paper some thought (it's due at the end of august).  i just want to be successful.

things at the apartment are good.  i've got a lot of boxes put away.  i posted a bunch of stuff i want to sell on craigslist this morning.  i haven't gotten any emails about my stuff. :(  i think most of the stuff i don't want will end up at goodwill.  i just need to finish up around here since my housewarming party is just around the corner.

things with J are going well.  he has his son this week so we won't see each other until next monday.  that seems so far away.

overall, i am very happy!  things have fallen into place and i've got lots of reasons to smile! :)
