Final post!

So this is my final post for class!  I feel really relieved that class is over.  Things have been really busy for me, and I feel like I have just completed something on my list.  I learned a lot from this class and I know that I am going to use this information later.  Thank for everything!

Running Running Running!

That is what I am doing!  I am running for the finish line.  I only have a little bit of energy left.  My legs are weak, my head hurts, and I am dehydrated, but I can see the finish line.  I have to give it all I got.  Only a little bit left, two more classes, two more quizzes, and summer school is over!  I am already thinking about what I want to do with my son, my free time, and what I am not going to do with my time.  I will have a months rest until it all starts up again. I really don't know why I like to torture myself!

Repulsive Taste

Repulsive, nauseating, foul taste in my mouth!  How do I cleanse my pallet?  How do I over come this offensive taste? Sometimes you just have to walk away from the table.  And I think that is what I need to do  :(

Almost to the end!

I am one of those people that like to count down.  I enjoy getting to the finish line and completing things.  What I have to say is that we have 3 classes left.  So we are almost to the end!! I am excited because I need a break.  I am enjoying the fact that I wont have homework and I wont have to think!

First Open Water Divers

So I finished my first Open Water class!  Today was the last day of diving! My students have completed their final dives.  They are certified and I have made it through the first class!  It was a lot of work but I am glad that I have one under my belt. I learned a lot by teaching by myself, and I know that next time it will go smother. (there was a few small hick-ups)
All in all-I am glad my first Open Water Class is done!

My first Open Water Class!

This week I am teaching my very first Open Water Class.  I have been an SCUBA instructor for over a month now, but this is the very first class that I am teaching All-By-Myself.  I have assisted in several classes and taught sections of the class, and administered the open water dives, but because of scheduling I have not done a complete class all by myself.  So this is an exciting week for me. 
Yesterday was the first classroom session, and it went down with no problems.  Well maybe just one, my voice hurt by the end of class.  I am a talker, and don't mind doing it, but after three and a half hours, my voice was hurting!  I am excited for tomorrow night to finish the classroom, and complete the pool work Friday night, and be diving in Lake Mead this weekend.  It is a busy week for me, but I am doing something that I love!

Cabin fever!

My family cabin is very small, remote, and just a step above camping.  I call it camping because the cabin is basically, camping with a structure protecting me.  There is no power, we haul in our water, and it is such a remote valley, there is  no cell service.  When I am there, I feel one with nature.  I don't have to worry about what is going on in the world, or who wants to talk to me, I don't even care what I look like when I am there (meaning I don't put on my make-up or do much "primping")
The cabin is all about family time.  We go on ATV rides, play cards, and just sit around and talk.  I was fortunate enough to have my older brother come with his girlfriend and her two kids (for a short time), my little brother with his two kids, my parents, and my boyfriend was able to join us also.  All in all it was a good trip to the cabin and a good 4th of July.
