I'm almost finished with three weeks of Spanish homework which is due tonight. This is part of why I couldn't sleep last night - I was worrying about this homework/test nonsense (yeah, we have a test tonight, too, fun, fun). I will be relieved to have it done. I'm really hoping that we only have to do the workbook, though, because I haven't touched the lab or video manuals. Also, I have this fear that I'm supposed to print something out for it (but why? the teacher can access my scores online... it makes no sense) to prove I did it and there's no printer here. Maybe I'll have the money for an inexpensive printer in a month or two...
Blech. I like school but the stress lately has been so insane that I haven't been able to concentrate at all. We skipped class the week before last because we were tired and stressed and had no childcare for Zack and then left early last week because we were too tired/stressed. I'm worried that this test is going to be really hard for Brian (I don't think he's had ANY time to do the homework or study - he had another test and a programming assignment due today, poor overworked guy) and that he'll be all demoralized by it. *sigh* I hate it when he's stressed out. I want to soothe him and make him happy and usually I can't really do much.
Last night, he tore the place apart looking for a bill so he could put it in his organizer (he was going to pay his bills while at school today, yet another thing on his LONG list of things to do) and was berating himself for not putting it in his organizer... only to find, once he'd given up looking for it, that he had put it in his organizer. My poor sweetie! Stress and exhaustion make us do some silly things.
In other news, I'm starting to feel like, maybe, you don't all hate me. (Remember, stress = silly things? Paranoia is mine.)
