Back in school...

.....and already way behind!!

Seriously more than 400 pages behind! Amazing when you think school has only been in session one week! Do professors really think you can fit it all in somewhere...not just the time but the brain space?!! Honestly!

I am seriously the master of procrastination! In the first week I left an online exam til the night before (and SOME reading too!) all this despite all my lofty goals and good intentions for a new semester.
This is the last semester before graduation....it is sink or swim time and I have come too far now to sink! Let's do this!

where did it all go?

So I got a statement in the mail today that reads:

Capitol Federal Savings Annual Loan Statement for 2008

So as I glance it over I realize over the course of the entire year with all my on-time-monthly-mortgage-payments (which FYI are over $5oo/month) I have one knocked the principle balance down by $935.16 in a whole year!!!!! Don't even get me started on the fluctuating escrow balance....what ever that is!!!! Incredible....what happened to all that money?

I blame the government!

the obvious and the not

the obvious....so the mortuary came to pick up a body last night.... nothing usual but this mortuary employs... the grim reeper himself.... tall 6'6"-ish, lanky, old, smelled of years of chain smoking, long black trench coat, black hat, gray/white hair and beard....it was if it wasn't already obvious enough what he was there to do. God bless those people.

...last night I lived an episode of ER....true facts too graphic for public blog but saving a life did indeed happen....twice.

the not.....people's reactions, emotional status, and expectations.
