I FINALLY have gotten some feedback from my class--got an email that the LDL paper I did was "very nice". Thank GOODNESS. Then in class I got the first page paper back( 22 pages with charts, tables, diagrams--all things I had never done before) and got a 91% It's a B, but I was praying for anything that resembled a passing grade so I am happy.lol.
I still don't know if the extra credit paper I did got me anything at all--I don't know how I slipped in a 6 page paper on Celiac disease, but I did!
So in the next two weeks I have a 25 slide power point presentation to do--yup--never have done anything with "powerpoint" in my life. Oh my, school has changed! But again, if I am not "busy" elsewhere, my mind is "busy" about the sitch at home and it is sometimes SO dismal thinking about this stuff.
I am rather down today because yesterday Marina came over and was learning to play Rumicube with us. My H had a good one--my S said "Dad, you're RUSHIN' me"--and my H says without a beat--SHE's the one who's "Rushin/Russian".lol.
Anyway, my S says something about slapping her silly if she doesn't move quicker--I think I had a "look" on my face, but I am not sure--my S is 14 and of course dad has probably never had a "you don't hit girls" rant, because his dad will say the exact same thing. And of course dad sees nothing wrong with physical stuff "if it is deserved".
So I believe I will have a "talk" with my S, but I don't know how much to say--and in what way?? This stuff boggles my mind. I would also like to speak to my H's dad and say how I can't believe a CHRISTIAN man would say this stuff, even though I know he probably doesn't mean it (he is a smallish guy and has never hit a woman in his life--but his son HAS before!)
Meanwhile, Marina is in ROTC and is going away to Citadel for a week, my H and S are going to Canada for a week, and I need to find something for ME to do besides school! I feel really reckless--I may just book a flight somewhere. Gotta call my sister and see if she is up for something!
