As much as I have dreaded school starting I must say that today was simply wonderful. If this is any indication as to how the year will be then I'm thinking it's gonna be fantastic. I got up super early today and had time to do everything that I wanted - and more!!!
Some of you may not know this but recently I have been diagnosed with Sciatica. Basically that means that my sciatic nerve will flare up and send excruciating pain throughout my entire left leg at any given time. It was constant for quite some time and more recently I have had more days without pain, but when the pain comes it's almost more than I can bare. I have been seeing the Chiropractor and believe that has aided in the relief that I have had thus far. I'm not quite half way through my treatment and am believing that God truly will heal me of this. I have been advised by my Dr. that when my pain flares up not to take meds but to get off of my feet for the day. I try REALLY hard not to take the meds that I was prescribed, but sometimes the pain is more than I can tolerate and I have to take the edge off. I do try and stay off of my feet though and that has certainly helped. Please pray that I will be healed of this quickly and that my body will accept the adjustments I am receiving at the Chiropractor.
So, with all that said, this morning was one of my worst days :( I did take some meds (i know, shame on me!) because I knew that I HAD to go to work and school. I cried out to the Lord and prayed for Him to take my pain away and get through the day, and Praise the Lord, HE did! YAY!
Anyway....... Today was Jarred's first day of 4th grade...... wow, how time flies!!! Hard to believe that my little guy is growing up so quickly. I know that he enjoyed it and I am trying to help him have a positive attitude towards school this year. I just have the greatest feeling about this school year. Like something great is going to happen and it will be the best year yet!!! Maybe I'm just excited, I don't know, lol.
I also started classes today. Which I was seriously dreading, lol! I'm taking Accounting I (was really dreading that class), Business Research, and Ethic Issues for Business Leaders. The latter two are online classes that I have orientation for this weekend. I have Accounting I on Monday & Wednesday morning, and I must say that I think I'm going to really like it. Another Praise!!! God's so good! Oh, one more shout out for the Lord, lol.... The cost of the Accounting book I needed was $200!!!! Can you believe that??? That's almost as much as the class it's self! Well, I had been waiting till after the first class to buy it, hoping that I could find something cheaper online and wanting to see if I would even need it. After class today something told me to check with the Woman's Resource Center to see if they would be able to get me a book. Well low and behold they gave me a book for..... FREE!!!! YAY!!!! God is so AWESOME!!!! I'm so happy about that b/c like most of us, I really needed the extra money!
I need to post some pictures of Jarred's first day, but that will have to wait. I am about to go read with him now. Just wanted you all to know how our school year is starting out ;)
Take Care,
j.
