Overloaded And Torn

Well...Summer Quarter started on Monday. As if last quarter wasn't bad enough with the work load, I log on to just one of my classes and it says my assignments, that are due by this Friday, is to post an introduction about yourself in the discussion forum, read 3 chapters, do those 3 chapter quizzes, and take some kind of survey. I'm thinking this is just great. The other class was Business Writing, I had to read a chapter, do a quiz, post my introduction, upload my resume to the forum, and review one other person's resume by Friday (today). Well, it was a struggle, but I got it all done. This schedule is killing me though. And I feel like it's taking away from spending time with Dalen. It's summer time, and I'm at my computer trying to do all this work when I should have him out in his pool or playing with him somehow. Plus, it's been hard on Travis and I not spending much time together. When he is home for the past 3 months he's been on his computer doing his homework, and I've been on mine. I really hate to give it up though. I love the challenge and will love to have that accomplishment. But I'm wondering, is it worth it? Am I being selfish? And I keep thinking, Dalen will only be this small for a short time. Won't I regret not making the most of this time with him? I am done with all of my homework until Monday night, so I'm going to make my final decision over the weekend.

Dalen and I have started walking with Angie and Rylan in the mornings. It's been alot of fun! Dalen won't take his eyes off of Rylan, he just will sit and watch him go beside him the whole time.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

My iPhone

Last Saturday, Travis and I got new cell phones. I got the iPhone. I have been doing nothing all week but playing on it...it's addictive.

It's so easy to browse websites with, get e-mails, update my Twitter, get on Facebook, check MLB scores (yes, I love baseball), and it has some really cool apps. It syncs with your computer through iTunes, so you can upload your address book thought Outlook, and you can even add pictures to your phone from your computer.

I got this one today called Puri!Lite. It does really neat templates and has stickers, etc that you can add to photos. (Yes, I love stickers too). It was free too.

My Little Reds Fan :-)

Have a great weekend everybody!

Dalen's Pool; Mule

I just wanted to stop in and let everyone know I'm still alive lol. School is almost finished for this quarter. I've only got one more assignment to do tomorrow and that's it! I'm not sure if I posted before or not, but Travis will for sure be done in August. I'll pretty much be on my own though for the two months of Summer Quarter because he will be on campus after work three nights a week. :-( I'm really dreading that. We've both got a week off in between quarters. We're hoping to go to a Reds game during that time at some point. Plus, Trav wants to go fishing too.

Dalen is almost 9 months old now. We got him a little swimming pool to play in this summer. He loves it. He has two bottom teeth, and is working on his four top front ones now. He is working on crawling, but is mainly scooting himself backwards.

Dalen had a big day on Sunday when he went to see his Grandma and Grandpa McCoy. We took him for a ride on Grandpa's Kawasaki Mule. He was asleep before we made it to the top of the hill.
