Yesterday was certainly a day fro work, I had two papers due and a 100 question test all in one class on the same day! GAK! Somehow I managed to do well with it all, I received 100% for both papers and 87% for the test, I walked out of the class smiling! LOL!
Before the test even started I turned off my cell phone, the last time I took a test the stupid thing went off three times! (had it on vibrate) it was a tele-marketer trying to call me! it COMPLETELY ticked me off and that was that for the test! I received a 73% that will NOT happen again! BELIEVE ME!
While I like the idea of taking classes for the summer session, I will admit that the work load can be challenging at the least, in the last two class sessions in one class I have written four papers and taken a 100 question test, and it was NOT the midterm! YEESH! but I'm making my way through it, paper by paper!
I have a Marketing Problems class today, there is a new product paper due (We have to come up with a new product), a presentation on a chapter in the textbook due, with external information (done in a group) and a case review on Starbucks (Done in a group, more like a PAP than a paper, its 15 pages long at the moment) I'm actually ready for it! what do you know! Life is good!
I see it is raining outside already, seems like it is that time of year? There is rain in the forecast on and off for the next 10 days, I don't think I'll be doing too much riding, a mist is OK, but rain is not.
I guess I should head off, the third cup of coffee is calling me already!
Later all!

A Sunday morning ride
I took the motorcycle out camping this weekend, while I do enjoy that I did find a type of weather I do NOT enjoy riding in! NOT at ALL! LOL!
There was quite the fog Sunday morning, I wanted to go to church so I finaly headed out at 9:15am thinking the fog was burning off, that was not the case, the 8 mile trip took me forever! I had to pull over 5 times and clean my glasses of, they were fogging over something aweful, then I only had the nerve to go 40 to 45 miles an hour thinking something might be in the road waiting for me to hit it! LOL! needless to say it took me a while to get home, I'm thankfull God is ALWAYS watching over us! what a different story it could have been otherwise.
I am still sore from the weekend, I am NOT complaining however, I managed to get three or four weekend of work done in just eight and a half hours, thank God for that! I'm all caught up for now!
So what will the week bring? WELL! I have two papers due Tuesday and a 100 question test also (All in the same class!) summer classes! SO fun! LOL! but! I'm getting the work done!
I should head off for now, I have to leave early for class today, I need to make a stop in G.R. on the way.
Later all!

A stinking busy nice day!
What a nice day it has been, but its been a busy one! I rode the bike out and picked up oil, an oil filter, sparkplug and the replacement choke cable for the bike. I rode back into town picked up and helped move a freezer to Mom and Dad's, then picked up and delivered a table saw to my brothers house, dropped of chicken to Moms (Forgot to do it the first time!) back to my house did oil changes on both Mom and Dads vehicles, the an oil change on the motorcycle, then replaced the sparkplug and choke cable on it also. A little later in the day my brother a friend and I installed front struts on a car (A couple of hours there) then went to my aunts house to work on her laptop (No luck there, BIOS issue)
Only after all this was done did I realise I hadn't eaten, lucky for me there were a couple of jalapeno bratwursts in the fridge, they tasted especialy good! LOL! Wonder why!?
Time to kick back and relax for a bit, no complaints or bragging here, I was able to get three or four weeks of projects done in eight hours, I can SO handle that!

being tired and the woodpecker
I am a bit worn at the moment an I could really use some time off...too bad for me though! LOL! that won't happen!
I am in the begining stages of a second redetermination with the state, I missed a waiver in the begining which caused me to be denied for extended TRA benefits, I went through one redetermination hearing and was approved, but when it went to the main unit I was denied a second time, that is where I am at today. I will end up having to appear at a hearing to defend myself and get those benefits back, I must admit, I am tired of fighting for everything! wouldn't it be nice if we didn't have to do that?
Between classes, hearings, paperwork, living life, trying to do a few nice things for people and keeping up with things I am wiped out. No giving up though, buckle down and deal with it, the outcome will be worth it!
So, early today I was watching a woodpecker beat the snot out of a walnut tree branch, there must have been one juicy bug in that branch! why else would it have done that? LOL! the bird was larger than the branch itself, it's not like it was making a new home! HA! silly bird!
Well, I guess I should finish this considering I started it HOURS ago! LOL!
Time to head out and see what the afternoon brings!
Three trips to the MichWorks office later and I'm spent, but still have clas......Its ALL good! LOL!

Silly phone line!
I figured out the other day that my phome was acting up badly, it would only half ring then hang up on people, after an hour or so of troubleshooting I figured out what the problem was! (what'dya know!) one of the DSL filters had gone bad! CRIMANY! at least it is done now! AND its working right!!
I had noticed that my internet wasn't quite as fast as it had been, but never gave a silly filter a thought! you know, come to think of it, that is the second one that has gone bad? I think I lost one last year? not sure when.....
The BEST part of all this you ask? NOT having to call the phone company in for a repair! CHA-CHING! LOL!
I went for a six mile ride today, it ic COLD when your going like 50, so I wore a jacket. That silly motorcycle was acting up something aweful, I went to the gas station to fill it up and put near two gallons of gas in it........it was running out of gas! LOL! it ran much better once the tank was full!
I guess I need another cup of coffee! LOL

Sitting watching rabbits and rain
Yesterday was certainly nicer than it had been in a while, even with the rain! I spent an hour in the morning watching two small rabbits playing in my back yard, they ran back and forth getting a little closer to me each time, so nice. I think they had fun teasing me!
I looked out the back door a little later in the morning and there was a woodchuck (grounhog) setting on my picknic table with its face pointed to the sun, unfortunately there was no sun to be had, the woodchuck was determined to get sunshine though and sat there for nearly half an hour waiting for even a moment of sun, no luck for the woodchuck!
All I have to say is YEESH! I guess I have been a bit busy (Or tired) lately, it wasn't till 7:10 last night that I realised it was Wednesday, prayer meeting night....DOH! I enjoy going to church! and when I can't go I miss it! aww stink! LOL!
Its been THREE days since I've been on my motorcycle an I am going through withdrawls! GAK! EEP! GASP!! I hope to get a couple of miles on it today, no rain in the forecast, hopefully I will se a little sun later on and head off for a bit. I guess I'm a little bit like that woodchuck, watching and waiting for the sun to make its appearance.
Not too much in the works today, I have a couple of hours of homework that I need to work on, I have to pick six stocks and then prepare a paragraph on each of them explaining why it is that I picked them. I have the stock picked (All technologies) but need to do research on them yet. The Introduction to Business class is a bit of a pain! but I do not give up! and I NEVER quit!
