Not a ususal blogger

I have never blogged so I am not sure why I feel compeled to do it now. I think I am reaching the age of not wanting to  reach that age yet. My oldest son turned 8 on the 16th and I am turning 35 in Sept. I don't feel 35. In fact I don't feel 32 and that age is gone with the wind. It seems so strange to me to think that I am the old one. I went out yesterday with my kids to get my scrubs and school I.D. and I couldn't help but to notice that I am probaly 10 years older than more than half my class LOL..O'well. I am excited to be returning to school, and a little overwhelmed at the same time. I thought I was starting in November and then my adviser called yesterday and said someone dropped the July class do you want there space? So I said sure when does it start and he said MONDAY. OMG..I only have 3 days to prepare. I am prepared as far as books and such go but mentally is another story. My DH is freaking out and keeps giving the lecture on how "serious this is" I am aware. I just took out a $40,000 loan so believe me I am very aware of the seriousness of this. I think men dwell on complexity, I know this is going to be a very intense 2 years but somehow if I don't react like he does he thinks I am naieve to the fact that this is not going to be an easy couple of years. I am getting my degree in respiratory therapy. I put off returning to school to be home with our kids, I am glad I did. I am not worried about the age thing because I would never change the past 8 years of being a stay at home mom. I have loved, learned, grown and even loathed on occasion every single minute. I am a fortunate person and I count my blessings daily.

Well on another note I have decided (like 50% of women) to lose 15 lbs. last night my 3 year old son was sitting next to me on the floor and punched me in the stomach, my husband told him to stop and I said it doesn't hurt and hes only playing so its fine; then my adorable little 3 year old said "it doesn't hurt because its like MEAT LOAF". Meat loaf UGH I will never eat meat loaf again. Needless to say my hubby and kids were craking up. I too got a good laugh but still meat loaf..guess its time to put my excersise ball to use.

Well this is it, my first blog. I think I will do it again. Its sort of like a diary only anyone whos interested can read.
