278, That is how many days until I graduate from ISU. I can't believe that time has gone so fast. I am anxious to get started with my field base. My only worry is that there will be so much to do in the coming semester and making sure that I give enough time to each project. I think that once I know what each assignment will be it will be better.
So I only have one more paper to finish and I will have my early childhood endorsement. Everyone tells me that the more I have the more marketable I will be. I guess we'll see when it comes time for me to get a job.
So here is a little up date. My grandfather is doing really well. He is starting to go up stairs and soon will be able to get rid of the hospital bed downstairs. I am heading home at the end of the week to stay with my grandparents. Next Monday he has an appointment with his oncologist. I am a little concerned about what we might find. Just before he left the hospital his IGG was 2170. Normal is between 583-1761. With the type of cancer that he has he will never be cured and the only thing we can hope for is remission. He could have a bone marrow transplant however with his age and blood type the likelihood that it will work is very small.
I can't believe that I did this but I have joined eharmony. I have done this in the past but lately it seemed that every time I turned on the TV there was a commercial about it. So I said why not. So far I have been contacted by a few guys. I am not real sure how I feel about doing this but where can you meet a nice guy that has some morals and values and doesn't just want to into your pants. At my age when all of my friends are married and have children or there are my school friends and I love them but they are 21 and 22. Not really ready to settle down and still think that going out several nights a week and getting drunk and making "bad life decisions" is the way to go. Don't get me wrong I love going out and having a good time but I am the "mom" of the group. The one that wants to make sure everyone gets home safely.
So back to the web dating. How do you really know what you are getting when you do this? I know that I am being as honest as I can be. I don't want to give it all away or there would be no need to meet them in person. Then there is this: discontinuing conversation based on statements made and never meeting the person. I have to say I am guilty of this but I don't think I can go out with 20 plus guys in a short time just to see if what they are saying is true. Oh well, I'll let you know how it goes.
So here is a little up date on the ex. We had not spoken in almost a month, then the other night he texted me. I guess it is easier then actually calling me. He says he is doing a little better. He actually asked me how I was. Shocker!!! He NEVER asks me that. So, this is the deal, I am not and will not be contacting him.
I think I will leave it here for now. I have a paper and a presentation to complete.
Until next time.......
