Back to school

Well the kids are settled in their routine and seem to like their teachers. I think my daughter's teacher is going to be a bit of a hard-ass, in a good way, so that should push her a little more. She does extremely well in school and doesn't have to try very hard and I explained to her that one day, she'll have to. That day has come. As for my son, he's Mr. Helper at school--not at home though--and loves doing the homework in his agenda. I'm sure that'll be short-lived!

I started my course on Wednesday and it's great, a little scarey and a lot of work! There are assignments that don't seem too bad but there are 2 quizzes in this term/semester and they are worth 50% of my total grade. HOLY CRAP!! No pressure there.

I have realized that with this extra work load and the kids activities, that I can't do everything. I had to quit the Hallowe'en show for belly dancing but I'm still going on Sundays. I wish there was a way to do it all but this course means too much to me and there will be other Hallowe'en shows.
