Hats Off To Single Parents

By ahmil | October 18th, 2008

Haven’t been writing for a couple of weeks.  I had signed up for a class which started a couple of weeks ago.  So between the long commute, working 4 days and trying to get a head start with the class, I’ve just been a bit too tired.  I really feel that I have no right to complain or miss any writing.  My husband brings home the bacon and fries them up too.   My kids are old enough that if we need to ask them to fend for themselves they could.  So my life is not that difficult.  I can’t image how any single parent can do it all him/herself.  If they are lucky and have a good support network of family or friends, they can get a break sometimes.  Still … I am tired just thinking about it!

Anyway, this is my first online class at a university and I am really excited.  It really gives me the flexibility that I need and let me think and do my homework properly.  I don’t feel the pressure of being in class.  It still has all the weekly reading assignments and homework but I can pace myself.  Except my pacing is really trying to stay ahead by cramping everything on Fridays and a bit on the weekends.  This class will benefit at work and if I do well I hope this will give me the confidence to pursue more classes.  Who knows maybe I can work up to getting another degree.

Now I just have to keep up with the class and get a good grade.  I do not want to have to pay my company back.  This class is not cheap!
