Oh no

I work at a convenience store anywhere from 4 to 6 days a week and have for almost 5 years. I was never scared to work alone. I always felt safe for some reason until Friday night (4-16-10), I was working my usual shift which is 230pm to 1130pm and the store was robbed. I am okay, but even tonight when I went to work I was still scared. I kept thinking the guy with the gun would come back. I don't know why. I don't know how long it will take me to get over this bad feeling or this very bed experience but I am just very grateful that I was not hurt. It could have gone very badly for me and I am lucky that it didn't. I wasn't able to sleep at all last night after getting home. I do not believe that I will get to sleep a whole lot tonight either unfortunately.

Last week

Last week was a little trying for me. On Monday I had found out that my best friend's dad had died. It made my week go very long. I had forgotten to post on here last week because I was busy with the ceremony of life that was being held for him. Although on a better note this week things are going a little better. I have changed my topic again. I had wanted to do my paper on ADHD or on child immunization but as it turns out I was unable to find an argument in either that I could argue. So now I am going to do my paper on childhood obesity and the parents role in preventing it. This one I know I have the right argument for it and the right amount of information. I chose to do this topic because it is a big problem here in Maine with a lot of the young children.

Egg hunt

Today was easter and I set up an egg hunt for my son and my 2 nieces. They all had a blast. I think next year though I am going to do more eggs and hide them a lot better then I did this year. Lol it only took them like 10 mins to find them all. I was very glad that the weather today was great outside and that the whole weekend stayed really nice out up here.

Introduction

Hello everyone,

I am very new at writing a blog but here goes nothing. I am 25 and a single mom. I work a full time job which has me up late at night and up early with my son. He is 3 years old and even though he goes to bed at like 1am he is usually up by 6 am at the latest. I have grown to not getting more then a couple hours of sleep in a given night. I am trying to get my degree in Medical transcription and then one in billing and coding. I want to have both so that I know for sure when I am done that there will be a job for me in my home state of Maine.
