Unit 8 Post
Hi Everybody,
Let's see, what can I chat about this time! Well, I do wish I would get more comments on my blog. I enjoy it. Will I continue with the blog after the term: Absolutely! I love it. It's like my own litte diary or personal journal that I can say anything or get something off my chest, plus, since I find myself talking to myself quite often, I can elaborate on here in hopes that someone will enjoy reading it.
Last weekend we took the family to Baltimore Inner Harbor to the aquirium, we had a great time! My oldest daughter is very interested in sharks and the science field, so she was in her glory. As we walked through the sharks we heard everything and anything we ever wanted to know about a shark! The dolphin show was great, it made me smile. The 4D theater was amazing! It sprayed water at you, blew air on the back of your neck, blew bubbles and even snow!
Then on Wednesday, my step-daughter's girlfriend works at Hershey park and got them day passes. They have never been there and they loved it. My youngest is kind of afraid of coasters and heights, not sure why, but her step-sis tricked her into going on the sidewinder which contains 2 loops and you go forward and then backwards. When she got off she was crying so bad and of course didn't feel good. Well, I had to say to Toni, It's all fun and games till somebody gets sick! I ended up picking her up in the middle of the night because she was pukin her insides out! OHHH the joys!
Well, I can't believe this semister is almost over. This was one of my favorite classes! Dr. M. you made that happen! Best of luck to all with your final papers!
Enjoy!

Unit 7 Post
Wow! Another week down. I feel like singing!! (love karoke) Another one bites the dust, another one bites the dust and another one down and another one down, another one bites the dust...lol ok..
I don't mind peer reviews at all. I find it helpful with what others have to say. I want to know things that don't sound right or misspellings. I don't find it hurtful at all, were all in this together and we learn from our mistakes!
Well, a lot of you know that my topic is on Gambling, well it hits close to home and I am involved in a relationship where he has a problem. When doing my research and reading all the signs of a compulsive or pathological gambler, they don't differ much, but I did the AH-HA !! The signs and effects are right there in front of my face. How could I be so dumb? Now, on my end, I have come to HATE gambling, casino's, lottery..etc, and to live with one, who does admit he has a problem and we have restrictions now as to when he goes, or how much he takes and the bank card and check book is left with me, but I don't want to talk to anybody or tell anybody because it is an embarrassment, I'm not proud of it at all. I guess that's one of the effects on how it can ruin a relationship emotionally and financially. Ahh that felt good to get off my chest! Sorry if I rambled.
Well, I was having a great day, I've had a sore shoulder for almost 2 weeks. I believe I have a torn rotor cuff, from doing hair for 17 years, but my fiance and I decide to play catch with a football in walmart while we waited for assistance on a bike. Long story short, I irritated it BAD. So, today, feeling pretty good, decided to clean...5 hours later.....I cant move my shoulder again. I got some flexerol, but that lasts for about 2 hours, mineral ice, ice packs, and 2 tylenol pm usually does the trick. It sucks because I have no insurance, if I did, I probably would've seen a surgeon!
Well, I hope I didn't bore anyone, I really like to talk. Have a great week, and good luck with your papers!

Post for Unit 6
Well hello everybody. I decided to talk about what I've been doing the last 6 weeks. I decided to do my topic on Gambling Addictions, and everytime I'd get started on it I'd have to put it down because it bothered me to the point where I couldn't go on. The subject hits just a little too close to home. Being that it is unit 6 and a draft needs to be done I decided to bang it out. I can't put all 12 lengthy paragraphs in my rough draft so I have to figure out how to shorten it for the unit 6 project. I took a deep breath and didn't let anything bother me while I wrote. I am hoping it is long enough for the final paper! I feel like it took me long enough to get it all together..5hrs is a long sitting period!
Anyway, my daughter celebrated her 11th birthday on the 9th, we had a family reunion that my fiance and I cooked and prepped a lot of food for. It was his family reunion, which includes a lot of italians. You say Tony or Anthony and half of them look!! lol. It was a lot of fun and I won 2 poker tournaments out of 3 and it included 5-6 men!! No money or betting involved tho! Just the hold 'em chips, play $. That's better and the way to go!
Well, Good luck to everybody with their paper and the rough draft.
All enjoy,
Dawn

Unit 5 Post
Hi Everyone,
I can say that I don't really prefer to write! I really enjoy comp II more than comp I because I know the basics and Dr. M is so helpful and interactive with us! A lot more than I can say for the professor for comp I, although helpful but not real friendly! Sorry. I do enjoy doing the informal outline to write to get my ideas together and have the paragraphs flow.
One thing with my academic challenges at this point is I'm not really enjoying Anatomy & Physiology II. It's really kind of hard and the professor is not interactive on the DB much at all. And for seminar she won't type anything, says she can't??, so it's all verbal. She want's us to respond but it's hard when your taking notes trying to get everything and participate. Oh well, I guess you'll have this.
Right now school has influenced my life in a great way. I love it. I had the option to go back to work full-time or stay a student till my unemployment runs out and I chose school. I didn't want to drop a class or quit because the sooner I finish the sooner I will be on my way for my new career. I'm proud of my accomplishments also, it makes me feel like a nerd but I'm on the President's & Dean's list. Why? I have the time for my studies and am able to be dedicated to the work and assignments that need to be done.
Well, I hope you all enjoy!
