Starting School

Published on: Sep 3, 2004 @ 16:22 – 
Well I’m just about to enter my 11th week. Things are going so good this week with it. I rented a Doppler from Babybeat.com, for $23.80 per month. I tried for the first time two days ago to hear the heartbeat, but the first try was a failure. I tried later that night, and within 5 minutes I had found it! It’s kind of confusing to try and find because my own heartbeat gets in the way. You can tell the difference because my heartbeat is slow, and the baby’s beat is very rapid. It was wonderful to hear. I rented this Doppler when I was having Chris too, and it was so reassuring every time I thought something was wrong. This device will keep me sane over the next 28 weeks.
I start school again tomorrow. I have a pre-algebra class to take once per week on Saturday’s. I’m enrolled in English 110, but that’s a completely online class, which is nice and convenient. I hope I do well. I’m still not 100% sure what I want to do with the rest of my life. I’d really like to be in the medical field somewhere, but if not, perhaps a teacher? Who knows…. I don’t really know what Im cut out for. I’ve spent a lifetime having fears about doing new things, and Im finally taking a step towards conquering it. That’s part of the reason Im a homemaker, that’s where Im comfortable. I freak out on the first day of a job with cold sweats, and racing hearts. I’m afraid of new surroundings and meeting different people I don’t know. Tomorrow will be a challenge. If I can get past tomorrow’s class, a whole world will open to me.
Will update on how my classes are going soon!
