Day 3

It's day 3 of my new adventure. I know I will have to leave the townhome Andrew and I are renting. It's a nice big place, but we just won't be able to stay...not more than maybe a month or two. I hope I can find some place new where Samson has room to run or near a park where they will allow dogs to run around unleashed to play fetch, etc. He loves to run! It's not good for critters to be cooped up.

My first "real" class for my graduate degree ends tomorrow. So far I have a perfect 100% so I hope it sticks. By now, even if I lost a couple points for some reason, I wouldn't cry about it. :) The next class starts right away on Tuesday. At least I know I'll have time to put in the best effort I can without wearing myself out the way I had been doing. I did, however, find out I didn't get a high enough score in that silly 1-credit course in November/December so they put me on "Academic Probation" -- after one class! A stupid introduction to online courses class! That was irritating. Unfortunately, they won't let me double up on courses until that probation crud is cleared up. My academic advisor says I have 3 more classes to go to prove myself to their automatic system before it will clear. I wonder if I can talk them into removing it sooner.

I got my taxes done yesterday. My friend Carol is my heroine!! She found all sorts of things for me to get a good refund. Thank God, too, 'cuz I can use it!

Well, I have a box to sort. Samson chewed through the corners, so the box is useless now. :p
