I did it! I survived and passed this semester! I'm not thrilled that I passed with 2-B's and 2-C's, but given the circumstances of the past 16 weeks, I will not complain at all. It's a totally different task to go to school having a 5 and 4 year old and finding out a quarter of the way through the semester that you're pregnant. All of that is fine but the sheer misery of morning sickness every day for 9 weeks is what did me in. So, over half the semester, I spent my mornings bowing to the porcelain god in the bathroom, or the side of the road, whichever was closest at any given moment. That's the reason I'm calling it survival.
Next semester will be different again because I'm going to attempt 2 classes during the first 8 weeks and then another 2 classes the second 8 weeks. I decided it was going to be best to do it that way because of my due date being May 24th and my kids tend to come 3 weeks early which will put me right at time for finals. I would rather have to make up 2 finals, or try to take them early, than trying to do that with 4 classes.
After saying all that, I'm going to kick back and enjoy my 2 weeks off. Right... I meant I'm going to clean the house, get the kids room in a better working order since we have put them in bunk beds and I will also continue getting the baby's room together :) Oh AND read my history book for next semester so I'm not killing myself with the workload of an online, 8 week History class. Just the combination of those words make me cringe. When these next 3.5 years are complete, I'll be happy that I dug in and got all this done!
