A Balance

I feel as though I have finally found a perfect balance between work, school, housework and other activities. Giant Eagle cut my hours at work to 24/week but Sebastian and I agree that it's okay for now, for I need time to do the things that he can't do since he goes to work and school pretty much 24/7. For example, I have time to do laundry, house cleaning, and cooking besides my own school work. I take care of everything else while he works his butt off for the both of us and I dearly, graciously love him for that. He never has to worry about whether he will have clean work clothes or not or whether he will have to get ready in a clean or dirty bathroom because I try my best to make sure he has what he needs. I make a pretty good housewife if I so say so myself! (lol) I am not perfect though, please do not think that I think I am. I know I am not. No one is. But I try my best and that is all that counts.

I am still sad that Little Grandma passed away last week. However, I am learning it is just a part of life that is hard but you can live through it. I have only ever went to two funerals before hers so I still didn't know what to expect last Wednesday and Thursday at the viewing and service. I did not cry because she lived a long life of 96 years. 96 years. I also did not cry because I have the comfort of knowing that one day we will meet again. I felt sad yes, I am not heartless, but I somehow felt like it was okay because she would tell me everytime I visited her that her time was coming. She would tell me that it was going to be okay and to not cry over her because she was going to see us all again. She was waiting while the rest of us denied it. We all thought she was going to live to 100. But she didn't and that is still okay. It's okay. She graced us with her presence and one day we will be graced by it again, along with God's grace too.

I did recently just get good news about my grades for my first two classes at Phoenix U Online. I passed Personal Finance with a B+ and Univiersity Studies with a A+! My goal was to get 2 A's and I was SO CLOSE with that B+ but I suppose I can still pat myself on the back for a job well done. I feel like I tried hard so that's what matters. I am now starting my next 2 classes which are: Composition I and Health & Wellness. I am excited for I love both of these subjects!

Sebastian's midterms at Mercyhurst Northeast will be coming up soon and so far he's doing excellent! He sometimes stresses out about having time to do school work since he has to work full time inorder to keep his 50% off tuition, but I try to help him the best I can. I help him stay organized and read his text aloud to him because sometimes that helps. I am deffinitaly very proud of him and what he is accomplishing! (And I love that he still finds time to make me dinner once and a while and suprises me with sweet little things!)
