And so the seasons pass...

Its been forever since I've blogged, I know, I should be ashamed. In my defense however, I'm in school now, and I've been bogged down with work and homework. So let us offer up some of the details of my life.

About two weeks ago, I called a local school and inquired about their Massage Therapy and Bodywork programs. I started class pretty much the next day and have been very busy ever since, trying to arrange my work schedule and school schedule to work with each other.
On the bright side, school is better than any school I've ever even dreamed of. There are a couple of snags, like the first-aid class I cant get out of even though I have a higher certification from the ARC, a group none globally; versus the lower one I'm getting from an orginization I've never heard of before... Oh! The instructor is also totally clueless. He couldnt even assemble a face mask without help. "I pray for patience but they make me want to melt their face away" sounded really very loudly in my head when he told us to let him do it because he is "In charge of the class" Me and the EMT decided we'll just keep our mouths shut from now on.
Other than that class is amazing! There are about 7 of us in the full time program with a few that are only doing it part time. I actually know and get along with everyone in class, without trying! The teachers know us all too, its absolutely incredible.
Oh, Todd and I broke up, again. He decided that it was too difficult to only see eachother once a month (my schedule playing games with life) however, he was "So into" me that he "Honestly wanted us to live together." Well... I've discovered a few things lately: 1: the smoking wasnt because of drinking, but other drugs. 2: he cheated on me while on said other substances. 3: He has no drive nor life ambition. This all bugs me greatly. I actually almost dumped him again when he admitted 1&2. But wait! He dumped me cuz I didnt have time to drive down and see him at least once a week! Yet he still wanted to comitt to me... right, and he wants to get back together when my schedule permits. I dont think its gonna happen, I wasnt sure how much longer I wanted to be with him anyway.
Going back to that whole work thing... I had a talk with my boss today, and we decided that I should quit. She wants me to finish the week but I dont know that I will. I've put up with so much stuff from that place over the years and risked my health for it numerous times that this whole turn of events is well mildly upsetting. But its likely a blessing in disguise, I was burned out and ready to go anyway. Not even my swim team was giving me much of a reason to stay lately. Although one of my favorite kids did talk to me today and thank me for "Making me that fast and that strong." I've always said they'd all thank me for it someday, and there you have it. Its starting.
So now... I've got to buckle down and get myself a new job. Its time it has been for MONTHS I just couldn't really bring myself to let it all go... that place honestly became a part of how I defined myself and I dont seem to be able to let it all go and honestly rewrite myself. Now I have to.
