Hi Everyone,
I am just checking in today. I have so much to do in both classes. I am really going to take advantage of the time off. Even though it really isn't for us. Meaning that assignments are still due. I just keep thinking about Jan. 7, 2009. That was my first day of school. So, one year down for me in a couple of weeks. I cannot wait to graduate. It seems like it is going fast; then it seems like it is dragging on and on. I guess I am just impatient.
Well, talk to you later. I have a lot of things to do.
Thank you,
Lara

CC2 unit 6 Q.2
Hey Gang,
School starts in an hour so this is a quick one. I have been busy all day trying to do one of those debt consolidations. I have it done, I just want to make sure I have everything I need to put in it, in it. If it is true, it will be a big, big help!
On to the question.
I have done these, formal papers in school, in almost every class it seems. In this class I was able to choose my own topic. The thing is, I chose a topic that takes a lot of investigating; I love that word! I will not even know all the answers by the time this unit is done, because no one else dose either. This is an unknown topic. What I mean is, it is not as if we know what to do about this substance, thallium. It is still used legally; however, people use it illegally to kill people. There is no conclusion.
We know Lincoln was shot; that is true and a conclusion. But did you know he was buried 10 times? It is one of my favorite stories. I wish I could do a paper on that.
Well, take care and see you in class in about half an hour.
p.s. I am doing a little better today, Rodger wise.

CC2 unit 6, here we go...
Hola!
Well, on to the outline now. From what I have read in DB, all of us may have a chance of doing it correctly. :-)... It is actually just an organizational tool, in my eyes anyway.
I am getting a little bit better from the loss of Rodger; I am still kind of numb though.
Question # 1.
I think you can see how my last week of school went. I am a basket case about Rodger. Other than that, it has been smooth sailing except for the quiz. I am such a horrible test taker.
I will get it all together though, I have to. You know why, I get really mad at myself when I mess up. That is not a good thing when you are already depressed about a big thing. I just need to have a big giant cup of "Get a Grip" tea. Have you guys ever heard of "The Republic of Tea"? I by all of my tea from them. I have gobs of it, and one is called that.
I am actually going to see if I can get a job helping someone take care of their twins in the morning. That will take my mind off of other stuff for sure.
Well, I have to go get ready now. See you guys tomorrow.
Thank you very much,
Lara

CC2 unit 5, end of week
Hey Everyone,
I lost the fight yesterday with Rodger. He collapsed, and that was it. I am so sick to my stomach about it; I can hardly think. I feel like giving up to. Rodger never left my side; I could not even go pee without him making sure I was going to come out of the bathroom okay. How am I going to go tho the bathroom now? I have to make it seem funny to just get by. I do not know what to do? He was a big golden retriever. I am going to get another dog. Rodger was my best friend and I had to sign the paper to say you have my permission to kill him. I am sad. I know he was so sick, I saw his blood work and x-rays, he needed a blood transfusions, probably surgery, and more than likely to no avail. I believe he had a bleeding tumor. Well, I always move ahead, I have too.
I will see you guys in class on Thurs.
By the way, I did lousy on the quiz! I think that 20 minutes is WAY to stressful. Maybe that is the point. To see if you can handle it. I cannot, I am a very stressed out test taker. I could study for a year, and still get things wrong.
Thank you,
Lara

CC2 unit 5 Q. #3
Beunos Dias!
I want to learn Spanish after this school. As soon as I can, I am going to get the Rosetta Stone second language course. I have looked into it; It is expensive. I just figure that knowing Spanish in my neck of the woods could only help. I cannot go any where in Havasu without hearing it. I think at least, if not more, a quarter of the population is Spanish. In fact my sons girlfriend is Mexican.
I finally took my dog to the doctor yesterday. He has some kind of infection in his sinuses and lungs. They gave him a big penicillin shot with an electrolyte drip, and gave me about two weeks worth of pain and amoxicillin pills to get rid of it. He has a high temp. too. I guess the best way to put it is doggie flu. :-( ...
Now to question #3.
The influence that I am seeing is that an education really shows. I know now that I was just writing before. According to the terms of the school, I'll bet I was plagiarising all over the place before and not realizing it. As far as the medical part, I think it is neat that when I go to a doctor now I can, almost, understand what they are saying. And I am able to see things at home before I really need to go, no panic mode anymore. I use to just sit there like a lump and believe everything I was told. They're the doctor sort of attitude. As far as math goes, I can see how it will help me to change what is needed for the best results of my business. I intend to have a home office for my Medical Transcribing; math will definitely help me to keep the monetary end of it in order; not to mention the office in a systematic working area. I think it called ergonomics.
Thank you all, see you later.

CC2 unit 5 Q. #2
Another day in LHC, AZ,
I am busy today with school! I had some things that I had to take of before the weekend, so it is catch up time. I hope you guys will have a nice weekend.
It is so cold here, to me anyway, 38 degrees this morning. You guys probably think that is warm. It gets up to about 59 degrees today. It is because we are still all rainy and cloudy out. Usually it would be in the mid 70's or low 80's.
On to school now.
I can tell you exactly what the challenge is with me in this school. It is not the work; I love to learn. It is the finance department. I was blocked from getting into this term because they could not find my paperwork. They finally found it, and unblocked me. I think the day before we started. Well, they are at it again. That was what I meant about having to get some stuff done before the weekend. I finally called Ginger Cameron, she is a Dean of Students for Health Sciences. She is looking into it for me. The finance dept. lost all my paperwork, again, and called me yesterday and threatened to block me out, again, because the cannot find their money and my loan, NICE!! They know more about me than I do, they have so much paperwork on me. I am even paying on my loan, what little I can, so I do not have shell shock after graduation. Other than that, I have no problems at all.
See you guys tomorrow...
Thank you,
Lara

CC2 unit 5 Q. #1
Hi you Guys,
I had the best news today. I have been working my buns off getting a re-modified mortgage for the last year. I cannot tell you how many people try to stop you in your tracks, and do not want to help you. What you hear on T.V. is just a lie. I went straight to my bank and said either you do this or you have another house on your hands. After non-stop calling (on top of school) I finally was given the number to the Vice President. I called and called, and then she actually answered her phone! She could not believe that I had been put aside (for 8 months) like that; I had my paper work and my own processor in two weeks. I have now been on a four month trial period with my new payment. Because I have never missed a payment since I built the house, I am considered true blue. I found out today they sent me my new mortgage yesterday! I finally won. I cannot believe it! Boyd, my husband, told me only 4.3% of everyone that has tried to do this has actually been helped; that is sickening!
Anyway, on to school.
After class last night, and reading it over again, I fit right into the free writing and brainstorming category. My mind goes a million miles an hour when I am thinking about stuff, and I write really fast. Then I go back and TRY to read what I wrote; then I make the list thing. I guess maybe even an informal outline too. All I know is that when I go to write my formal paper I use every aspect of my informal notes. I do not do graphs. I do not have the time for that. I like graphs in math. That is so fun. How everything meets up. I love math, I hate algebra! It should be against the law. Why don't they just say what it is? I can figure it out, but it is such a dumb waste of time. I like school all together, just not algebra.
Thanks you guys,
Lara
