First Day of Class

It was another busy day at work, but I did get a chance to eat some lunch today. The next couple months are going to be busy busy busy!

After work I stopped by Pet Supplies Plus to get some food for Zoey and Harley. Then I came home and we ate dinner (leftover night). Towards the end of dinner I told Parker and Zac that if they finished eating really good they could have a special dessert tonight. Parker said, “is it the Honey Badge that you told to us last night?!” I said yes it’s the Honey Bun that I said I would bring home! They were so excited. Parker said several times, “thank you for remembering daddy” and “I’m so happy you remembered”. If he knew how bad my short term memory is he really would be surprised I remembered haha!

After dinner the boys got their baths and then they went downstairs with Nicole to play. I logged onto Canvas, NKU’s Blackboard replacement, and got ready for my first class of Grad school. My class is Strategic Leadership for Informatics. The online structure is interesting and a lot different than the online classes from undergrad. The format is that there is an actual class that you can go to on campus from 6:15-9:00, or you can log into Canvas at that time and do a WebEx session and interact with the professor and others in the class, or if you can’t make the class time you can watch the WebEx online later. So even though I’m taking the class “online” I could still go to campus and go to the actual classes if I wanted. It was a classic “Syllabus Day” where we went over the course and our projects and deadlines. We also introduced ourselves to the class. I’m actually pretty excited about this class and the professor is highly recommended within the program. One day down!

The class only lasted about an hour so that gave me time to play with the boys before bed time. Zac and I played “horsie” with him on my back and me on all four trotting around the house. I need some knee pads now that the carpet is gone! I kept stopping and saying the horse was too tired, so Zac would put some pretend batteries to give me more energy 🤣

Tonight’s just been a relaxing night and will be an early bed time…trying to get caught up on sleep.
