1AM Pillow Talk

Pillow talk...
Hehehehehehe. He. Hehe. He. Hehehehe. He. *wipes eyes*
It's 1A and I am still up.
I'm becoming delusional.

I'm gonna pay for this tomorrow, that's for sure.
Errr, later today. :/

Did I mention recently that I went back to school?
I can't remember if I mentioned it... 
I think I did 
but then life overcame 
crashed,
practically drowned me
and now
I'm catching up with school.

And 4 things I am currently grateful for since I went back to school:

1) Professors who are sympathetic and give you extensions when needed.
I tried, desperately, to keep up with my English class the first few weeks. All while my Poppy was in the hospital. And the week he passed away, I still did my work. I forced myself to push through. I was already behind in my readings. But I could keep up with the assignments, I told myself. Turns out, the next two weeks, were so incredibly slammed with the funeral planning and entertaining of family. There was no way I would get week 4 done. So I emailed my professor and explained the situation, asking for an extension for Week 4. And bless her heart, she gave me not only an extension for week 4 but week 5 as well. I didn't know it then, but that extension for week 5 was definitely needed as well. I am so grateful to her. And I finally finished both weeks tonight. Only a week and a half late for week 4 too. Not too bad.

2) Caffeine
I'm trying to give up soda. I can't for the life of me remember if I succeeded today (or I guess yesterday now?) or not. But yea. I'm trying. What I so cleverly left out of the giving up category, was coffee and tea. And I have been making sure I get my share of both. Which may be the reason why I was up til FOUR in the morning last night, tossing and turning. And it may be why I am up right now. I need to look into that.

3) An easy toddler
She drives me nuts sometimes, but I am SO lucky. This child can keep herself entertained for hours if I asked her to. And will so nicely just lie on the floor and color while I try and catch up with bills, schoolwork and life. She is content with dancing around the house, talks all the time about her Poppy and loves visits from her Mimi and Gammy. Life is so simple for her. All she wants is her candy when she potties in the toilet and to laugh and giggle with mommy right next to her. I love it.

4) My Kindle
My wonderful M surprised me with a beautiful Kindle for Valentine's Day this year. And I never realized how convenient it really is.  Especially when you are playing catch up on your reading for your English class. Holy geez.

And with that, I fear if I keep blogging, I will incriminate myself with this level of tiredness.
So off to try and read for SOC class and get this proposal for my English Research Paper done. Research Paper, you ask? Yes, research paper. I'm back in college.
