I dropped C ++ because the course format wasn't working for me and I just wasn't getting it. So now I'm down to Business Ethics and Finance. Finance is a very easy class and I am getting the material, much better than the last time. I can now comfortably complete homework without an issue. However, there were some developments with the separation this week, and was pretty out of it, so I went out with a friend instead of working on Business Ethics yesterday. I felt bad about it. However, I really needed to decompress.
Work is going well. I returned from leave after having bursitis for 2 weeks and I basically got a promotion. It looks like I will be hired by the company (I am currently a contract employee) and will probably get a raise.
Other than recent events, life is good.

Easy Term & Change Continues
The first two weeks of the term are completed and they are going well. I've had to drop back to 11 credits, but I picked some pretty easy classes (for me), because I can't handle the stress.
This term I am taking:
C++ Programming
Business Ethics
Finance
So only three classes, and I can probably do those in my sleep, so even though I'm working I might have a little more free time. This came in handy recently, when I developed bursitis in my hip and was laid up for two weeks. I received a Cortisone shot this past Monday and went back to work on Friday.
My return to work was just what I needed. I was told all day how much I was missed. I even got a bit of a promotion and will, likely, receive a permanent position and raise in short order. I felt so great afterwards, I don't think I've come down yet.
Another thing that has happened is that the friend that I had staying with me, and was helping out around here, had to move out of town, so I am now handling stuff on my own. This has been good in one respect. I am no longer the horrible housekeeper mentioned in a previous post. I think I have things organized enough to keep them that way. The boys' room is the only disaster area, but I can close the door on that.
So it seems the negative changes that have occurred recently have actually had positive consequences. Who would've thought??
