Ups and Downs

Really life is going pretty well. Before I got married I always said that there was no way that I could ever do school and have a kid at the same time. Now here I am with a kid, going to school, and I'm pretty much working full time as well. It's not ideal, and it's not exactly what I want... most days I'd prefer to drop out of school and quit my job. But there are other days that going to school feels right, and working seems fun. I've often enjoyed a challenge. I wouldn't mind sleeping more.. But it's only one semester right? Besides all of my friends are at work, so if I stop working I won't have any social life, and that would be more sad. I miss Michael on the days I don't see him much, but that's kind of how it goes in school anyway I guess. Lots of time spent studying. I'm ready to be the stay at home mom in so many ways. But I also know that it's fair if I support the family for these first few years while Michael's in school... then he can take the long shift of doing it.

I still don't know exactly what I'm supposed to be doing with my life in the near-distant future... But... that's always the case I suppose.

In a few weeks, Michael and I will be having birthdays! The end.
