First draft done FINALLY!

Well it took me a really long time to compile my research so I could write the first draft. It took me a while to get it wrote but I finished it last night and got it posted today. Now I just hope I did it right and get a good grade for all my hard work.

Finally handling everything at once

I guess I just let my mind wander and think of all the things I have to do in a days time. Sometimes it seems that I will never get anything done. Especially when it comes to schoolwork, I think to myself wow all this work has to be done and when will I find the time to do it all. Then once I sit down and start working on the units it seems that it goes very quickly and I have time to just relax and do other things that I thought I would never get to.

Dealing with other issues besides school

Well it is true that life takes us on all kinds of twists and turns. I never thought that I would have to go through so many hoops just to get through one full day. I was always told that God would never hand us more than we could handle at one time, but sometimes it seems like I get more then I can handle. I just get a stiff upper lip and take care of what needs to be done and then go to bed and get up and start all over again the next day.

Final paper topics

It was a very tough decision on what to do my paper on. I have several experiences that have happened in my life that would be a very good story to tell. I took all the choices I had and narrowed it down to two. One was bloodborne pathogens in the workplace, which I chose because one of my many jobs was working in a lab in Columbus, Ohio around several different types of specimens. I found that experience very challenging and rewarding. The other topic was regarding pancreatic cancer, which I have decided to do my paper on because before my mom passed away in 2000 she was diagnosed with this disease and if she had not passed away she would have had more suffering than she had already encountered. I hope I can get enough information to make it very good reading material and make the public aware of all the challenges with this deadly disease.

About Me

Well I am sure that all of you have heard about second chances! I was given mine on May 19, 2007 when I married my soulmate as well as my best friend. We were engaged when we were in our twenties and got into a big fight over something he did that I could not find in my heart to forgive him for, so we broke off the engagement and went our separate ways. Then after 30 years when I divorced my abusive husband I gave T.J. and call and as the old saying goes one thing led to another and we decided to try again. After one year of making him prove himself to me, he asked me to marry him and I said yes. We planned the whole thing by ourselves and had my kids and grandkids in the wedding and we have been happy ever since.
