Whoa there!

So, I haven't blogged in some time. Because I only have one follower, I don't see that as a big deal. However, I blog to let of steam or reminisce about my life. This particular post is to let off some major steam.
I recently graduated with a BA in psychology, and this week I started graduate courses in school psychology. I am so eager to get started. My first classes were yesterday, and I am already feeling overwhelmed. While I don't have much to do at the moment, the anxiety has set in for all the future work. For some reason I have enrolled in 13 hours. One of those hours was not by choice, but I was required to petition for "overload" coursework. That should have been a red flag, but I thought "Eh. I can pull it off". I'm just praying that I can.
A couple of my mentors are also suggesting that I do my own research. I believe this is a great idea for a multitude of reasons. I only wish that I felt more confident in the amount of time and effort that I'd be able to put into it. We have a meeting on Friday, and I'll discuss with them more about my work load.
More updates later.
Oh, my son's birthday is coming up. My baby is almost 5 years old. I cannot believe how fast time seems to progress after having a child.
