Tuesday

Again I have failed to write on here all week. I feel like I made a New Year's resolution and broke it.
This week has been really rough! Had to completely start over on my paper. I could not find enough infomation on my other topic to write my paper. Although I learned a lot from the infomation that I did get, it just wasn't enough. Oh well. I know there is plenty of information about Obama out there to write a paper on and that is where I am going. I am finding it hard to keep up with all of school work with all of the challenges that I have going on at home and I am getting a little flustered with myself. My mom has been out of town and my husband my husband works in Texas (we are in MS), and I have had sick kids, a child failing school (this is his senior year), Dr appointments, fund raisers for the youth, and I am overwhelmed. I really need alittle motivation from somewhere to keep me going.

Tuesday

Why do I wait til the last minute to do everything that is due on Tuesday night? I usually do not procrastinate.....why now with so much to do?
Been really busy with the youth at my church.....lots of fund raisers to send them to a conference in Gatlenberg in December. Very proud of our young people! They are working very hard! All of the kids want me to go as a chaperon but I really don't want to take my 3 year old with us and I do not have anyone that will keep him for 3 days while we are gone. We will see how it turns out.
I have been talking to a few people about my paper and have got a lot of information to support me. I have got a long way to go though. Trying to get everything in order has always been a problem for me. I will be in the floor with paper everywhere trying to figure it all out.

October 12

Okay folks.....this is my very first blog ever! I am having a little trouble deciding what I should write here. How much detailed info should I give? Anyway...I have finally decided for sure what I am going to write my paper on. I sent an email to Prof Dick and she really helped me choose the direction I want to go. I do not, however, have a thesis statement yet. I have got a lot of research to do. I want to do a lot of interviews for my research and not have a lot of stuff from the Internet. My paper will be about religion and suicide. This is going to be a very interesting topic for me because I have had several family members commit suicide, and I hate to admit it now, but I tried it once myself. I have 2 children now and 2 step children that need me and I can't leave them, and have accepted Jesus as my personal savior since then and now there is no looking back. Well I did get pretty deep there. Gonna go for  the night. I am kinda liking this blog "thingie" (as my 3 year old would say).
