I got a 38 out of 40 on one paper (it was returned today) and turned the other two in. The paper for Abnormal Psych really psyched me out. I didn’t notice, until almost too late, that all my research articles needed to be peer-reviewed. Uh…none of them were. That was 3am yesterday. Then I realized,around 5pm tonight after finding 5 others, that they ALSO weren’t reviewed. I went with a book and one of the seminar articles but kept my list of long websites on the reference page. At least I turned it in. That’s half my battle sometimes...okay, most of the time!!! I got a 46 out of 50 on the first test, and this class only really has 3 items that are graded - midterm, final and paper. This is only my 3rd psych paper since returning to school, so I'm willing to accept the learning curve. :p
I'm not ready for Thanksgiving....wait, it's past.....I'm not ready for finals...they're in two weeks....I'm not ready for my birthday...that'll be in 2.5 weeks. Can we just start the year over? Guess that happens in a month, huh?
Someday I'll catch up with myself. I think I'll sleep then.

The deliberate torture...
The college I'm attending starts registration for spring classes next week. It's deliberate torture, I tell you, and here's why - I'm just now finishing the second of three tests in one class, have 3 papers due in two weeks, finals are in a month...and they want me to start thinking about next semester?!?!?! Huh????
I did survive my Anthropology test, and feel I did well. I hope to work on the two papers Friday and Sunday (with Saturday devoted to my Abnormal Psych test, maybe - that's the class that's on the web so it's easier to fall behind!)
My dad seems to be continuing an uphill swing while Scott's dad continues to swing downward. At the same time, Timothy now has 7 phone numbers memorized - more than Hannah! This was his whim, not something we even encouraged, really. If I tell someone my cell phone number, he'll point to it on his paper, or say "That's mommy's number." He's an amazing child.
Hannah is also! She's doing so much better in first grade than she was in kindergarten. I think she likes school more, right now, too, which is good.
If you have the National Geographic Channel, keep your eyes open for the "ManMade" series and their show on "The South Pole Station." One of the evil people that comes to the South Pole at the end of the program is Scott. Look for the interesting sweaters! We still don't know if it will ever be on DVD, but we've watched it twice with family and friends.
