Lazy Saturday in late Oct...

We are having a lazy Saturday morning! The ex called at 5:30am to pick up my son. I got up to get him dressed and had 'just one cup of coffee' before sending him off. Planned to go back to bed but it was quiet, there was more coffee and I wanted to catch up on emails on the computer. Started researching jobs, plants, a favorite author and you know how that goes. Several hours later you look at the clock and think "Have I really wasted that much time?" Yes, I did!
As if in answer to my question I heard a car door slam outside. I peeked out the kitchen window and see two Jehovah's Witness followers coming toward the door. I used to be a little rude to get rid of them but now I actually listen to their presentation. I find them to be intelligent and more in touch with today's lifestyles than they used to be. The one woman has been here before and was surprised that I could answer some of her questions about life. I guess having lived a few more years than she has might give me a little more insight on some situations! Anyway, she comes back every 2-3 weeks, talks about Jehovah and leaves me little pamphlets or books to read.
But they leave and I go back to the computer to shut down windows I left open. One of them was this blog. I didn't realize how long it had been since I wrote anything so here I am, sharing my Saturday morning with you.
I want to do a little bragging... I have been working to get all of my college transcripts to UNI so I can transfer after graduating from HCC in December. I called admissions and asked if they had received them all so I could figure out my status for registration. The woman told me I am classified as a Senior! YES!!! But now the scary part--I have less time than I thought to decide how to shape all of these credits into a 4 year degree. Academic Advising was my next call. I have an appointment on Tuesday. I hope she has her crystal ball polished so she can tell me what to do with all of this stuff!
HCC has been quite a roller coaster ride for me. From the time I started until present day, I've changed my mind at least twice about the direction to take in classes. I really love horticulture and love working at the greenhouse. I'd love to own my own greenhouse or work as a grower but I'm not too sure how to break into the market or finance my dream.
I took a semester off of Hort to get most of my Gen Eds finished up. Now I will graduate with an AA, AS, a diploma, and a certificate. I'm carrying 19 hours this semester and doing work-study, plus I was offered 1-3 credits on an Honors Project of my choice. I'm feeling the pressure of this load this weekend and need to get busy with homework!
After researching jobs in the Ag or Hort field on government websites, I'm a little worried about finding the right job after UNI. Some business classes might be a good idea!
I see it is now noon so my lazy Saturday morning is officially over. Time to get busy with something constructive.
