Good News, finally :)

So, enough negative family crap.
I'm going to be working a Chrysalis Journey with Amber this January. This is similar to a "spiritual renewing/retreat" for youth ages 15 to 24 (or 25)I'm really excited about it. It will be extremely tiring, but it will be worth the effort. I was asked to do an inspirational type of talk at the Journey. I have found that preparing for the talk has helped support me in my own personal spriritual needs. I'm looking forward to Halloween and deciding on a costume to wear. My music class, which has been extremely busy, is now slowing down (thank God LOL). I'm passing the history class and my job is going well. I have no complaints and I'm so greatful that my kids and their husbands/boyfriends are all doing well.
I had a Bone Marrow Biopsy done last Friday and will get the results on Oct 27. It wasn't nearly as bad as I had pictured in my head, which is a good thing. I did start to lose consciousness because my blood pressure fell to low, but all ended up good. I'm really not worried about the results at all. I'm pretty positive I don't have anything major going on and I'm hopeful they can tell me what I do have going on. If they can't find anything,then at least I know I don't have a major illness, just some type of inflammation disorder. Life is good.

Crazy Family

I have decided that with the exception of a select few (you know who you are) that my family is totally and completely insane. They run their lives purely on emotional responses. They don't take responsibility for their actions and expect others to "help" them out when they choose to live their lives selfishly with no consideration for others and then they end up screwing up. I have great difficulty believing and accepting how some people make the crazy, yes CRAZY, decisions they make. I understand all the psychology behind their actions, but not the logic. I also am tired of people calling the "Fajardo" bank every time they make a bad decisions then getting pissed at us because we didn't bail them out. People need to be responsible for their own lives. Family member's should help each other if emergencies happen, but not because a bad decision was made (drinking, drugs, rash spending) It is so, so sad. I really miss being a young, naive, person who seen only the good in family, having great times singing, playing games, cooking out, laughing. I so very much miss that part of my family. I miss that family so so much!

Busy, busy, busy.

Well, my mom left yesterday to visit my little brother in Florida. She and her husband appear to be taking control of their lives and this has relieved me of much stress. Nothing has changed regarding her problems, but it is a good thing for people to take responsibility for their own lives. So, regarding busy busy busy.
I'm taking two college classes this fall. This normally would be no problem for me, except I'm working and this basic "music 101" is so darn busy. I have a 2-3 chapter test or written report due every week. This is in addition to the twice a week classes. I'm also taking a European History class, but this one is online and no assignments (yea!) I just read the book, watch slide shows and take the tests. Now, this should be very easy to do, except that I'm working fulltime. So, it is all ok, but I'm tired of my every mement being school work LOL. In the meantime though, I'm quite satisified with myself for both my grades and my effort to continue my education. I do have a bowling league once a week, which is quite fun, so I get a little break. I've also been quite healthy and feeling better, so that is good :) That is all. Off I go to study again :)
