Back in Class!

Posted by: beaner927 on: August 28, 2007

So I’ve been in class for the past 2 days, learning all about Leasing Agent “stuff” like the Civil Rights Acts, Fair Housing, etc. My brain is so full of job-specific knowledge! At the end of the day today, I had to take a 100 question exam. If I passed the course exam, THEN they would *let* me take the State exam to get my license. Well, I got ZERO wrong!! Whew!!! That was a BIG relief. Now I’ve just got to take that State test ASAP before all that knowledge escapes my brain! I’m very lucky that I’m a good test-taker. I always have been. Now, homework was another story! I can’t even tell you how many times I was in detention for not doing my homework!!! Oh well. I’m getting paid to do my work now, so I’m sure I have enough incentive to do it!

Dwight has been such a blessing to me the past couple of days. I’ve had to leave town before the kids go to school, so he’s taken them to school & picked them up again, along with the neighbor-girl that I watch for 45 min. after school every day. And he’s had to work from home for a few hours just to make up that time.  Also, he’s put up with a crazy house too!  Things have been a little hectic around here – I actually just made a run to Target & Kroger to pick up some things for the house so we can eat some REAL food & use Ziploc bags again for lunches instead of having to dip into the freezer bags like we did this morning!!! Just ask Dwight sometime about the dinner I made the other night. I had chicken, ramen noodles, and baby carrots in the house, so I made stew. I called it “Funky Stew” & it just cracked him up. It really wasn’t too bad – I added a little soy sauce to it too!

Oh yeah –  One of my other co-workers had to take the class too, so we got to spend a lot of time together the past couple of days & she’s really nice. I think I’m going to join her & another co-worker every other Friday for BINGO!!! It’s funny, but I don’t have ANY friends outside of my church. (Not counting Blog Church, of course!) It’ll be nice getting to know some new people at work.

Well, that’s it for me tonight! I am WIPED OUT! It’s past 11 & I should be in bed! Good-Night!

That has been one of the best things about tennis…I have so many new friends.

You sound so excited about this new chapter in your life. I’m happy for you.

Congrats on the 100! It sounds like things are hopping over there. I’m excited for you!
