The last two days were sort of panic attack, meltdown and shut-down all wrapped into one.
The photo today has nothing to do with this post. And everything to do with me taking a Photoshop break. A break that my professor (I’m sure) would not approve of. So, we’ll keep this between us.
Class was a bit overwhelming Wednesday.
And of all things, I sat there wondering if I was in the right class.
Should I drop the class? I cannot believe that thought went thru my head, but it did. Then again, I can believe it. As I recall, the very same thought went thru my head last semester during one of my early classes.
I was panic-stricken! And I felt myself shut down. And everything inside of me screamed “how am I going to retain all of that?”
I had to decide if I was going to take notes or pay very close attention. Since I couldn’t take notes fast enough, I decided to pay very close attention and follow along hoping to get some of it. Good choice, very good choice.
By the time I got the opportunity to relay all of this (and then some) to the hubs, I had semi-calmed down. But still feeling rather overwhelmed with everything the professor went over in that 3 hour lecture. Let’s just say “he threw a lot of words at us during that class”.
Then the hubs said to me. “The worst thing you can do is panic, just take that elephant and chop it into bite size pieces. You can do it, I know you can.” He mentioned that I can get all sorts of help on You Tube. And listed several ways that I can get a better grasp on the problem areas.
Allow me to say, my guy is the level-headed, smart, patient, calm and peace to my every storm. And I’m so thankful he helps to bring the best out in me.
Feeling so blessed as I chip away on my elephant, while I learn to take bite size pieces.
And really, REALLY delighted this is the hubs Friday off.
And extra thankful I have the laundry baskets empty and the ironing all caught up.
And truly looking forward to my extra special date with the hubs today. More on that later.
HAPPY FRIDAY!
