One Step Closer

As this semester comes to a close, I'm satisfied with how I did overall with both of my classes. Turning in two research papers in one week put a high level of stress on me but I did all the work necessary and it showed through my grades. This takes me one step closer to finishing my degree. It also makes me realize how close I am to welcoming my second son into the world. Five years ago I would have never thought I would be where I am today. A wife, student, and soon-to-be mom of two under two. I wouldn't change it for the world.

Stress

As this semester comes closer to the end, I realize that there is still so much to be done; not only with schoolwork but life in general. After an A/C leak one month ago, the repairs are just now looking close to being finished. Therefore, I'm one step closer to putting my house back together. I have two final drafts for my classes to submit this week. Making sure they follow all the criteria isn't as easy as I thought for I seem to be mixing them up often. The exhaustion has started to kick in with only 7 weeks left before the arrival of baby no. 2 and what I am chalking up to as teething for my 17 month old. My motivation varies from day to day knowing that with the end of these classes, I'm one step closer to my degree and a job. At least hoping it goes that way.
