Crazy first day (Post #1)

Today is my first blog entry for my Comp 101 class. One of my assignments for this class is to write 50 journal entries, each 100 words long, by the end of the semester. Today I guess I will write about my day. This morning I woke up at 6:30. I didn't want to get up, but I knew I had to get Danny up or the whole family would be late. If he is late for school it is like a domino effect for the rest of the day. I manage to get him out of bed by 6:55. He takes a quick shower, eats a little cereal and the two of us are off by 7:10 to make our daily trip to Wareham High School. If our timing is off ,even by a few minutes, I will be stuck behind every school bus in town. Even when I time everything perfectly, the usual 10 minute drive, always seems to take 25 minutes. I rush back home and Paige, my youngest daughter, is usually showered and dressed and ready for breakfast. After she eats a little cereal the two of us dash out of the house by 7:55 in order to catch the school bus. A little hug goodbye and I am rushing back into the house. By now it is about 8:05 and Jenny, my oldest daughter, is waiting for me. We both go to CCCC and we car pool together. She is enrolled in the Dental Hygiene program and her first class is at 9:00 so if we are not in the car by 8:15 she has a heart attack. So even though I have been up for the last hour and a half, I haven't done much to get myself ready. I learned to get everything ready the night before so I wont forget anything. My first class is at 9:30 and I have classes until 1:45. This part of my day is the most relaxing. It is kind of nice not to have to concentrate on anything else except learning. Since Jenny's last class ends at 3:30 I will hang out at the computer lab (writing this blog) and finish up an assignment for computer class. We will probably leave the school around 3:40 and get back to Wareham by 4:05. Danny and Paige will already be home waiting to be fed. My husband gets home around 4:15. The two of us will take the dog for a quick walk, go home, eat dinner and then it is off to cheer leading practice for Paige. I like when she is at cheer leading because I get to relax a little. I can watch her practice, take a walk, read, or do some homework. Tonight we should be back home by 6:30. Then, I will probably take my mother on some errands. (my mother lives with us) By 8:30 I am usually done for the day....hooray!!
