School has been going alright now that I am going to the correct campus. And I have not done the wrong homework for awhile. Silly classes taught by the same teacher with very similar coursework. At least it was going pretty well until this last week.
All the sudden on Tuesday I had numbness and pain in my right foot. We were supposed to have a class field trip that day. The professor and I spent a lot of trying to figure out how the field trip would work so it won't be too much walking before I had to drive again and then I wasn't even able to drive to the field trip. It is good I didn't try to drive because my the end of the day, I wasn't able to put any pressure on my foot without a good dose of pain. Thankfully, the professor is going to go overview the highlights with me tomorrow.
But my MS decided that it needed to interrupt my homework schedule even more. On Wednesday, my right hand was in so much pain it felt like my fingers were broken. No idea what caused this. Sometimes I still have hand muscle cramps from over use but it wasn't like that. It just hurt if I moved my hand at all. This pretty much through Friday so I really wasn't able to get any homework done. The super bad fatigue didn't help either. I managed to just barely finish all my homework by working the whole weekend. It looks like my workload is only going to increase from here so I hope my MS will start behaving a bit more. I'm so grateful that most of my classes are online otherwise I would be crazy behind right now. Right now it's all A's and I'm keeping up with the coursework.
I have news about my last brain MRI and neurologist appointment. I'll post more about that later hopefully with some sweet looking pictures. I have some other exciting news that I'll share soon as well. In the meantime, enjoy this video. http://work.failblog.org/2012/02/24/job-fails-tigger-dougie-summer-job/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+MthruF+%28Monday+Through+Friday%29

First day back
I certainly hope my first day of school was easier then my first day going back to school. I don't remember anything about my first day but somewhere their is a goofy picture with me and a backpack that looks giant on me. It very well might have been a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles backpack.
Back to the land of 2011. Err 2012. Don't worry I'll stop 2011 on things in a few months. So I went to school early to pay tuition. It was a nightmare, they have overcharged me three times right now. After a brief lunch I went off to find my classroom. I'm a nerd so I always arrive super early so I can sit right up front. I went to the A building where my class was and room 120 was a small lounge area filled with vending machines. Didn't quite seem like the right place so I walked the couple blocks back to the main building. My schedule did say main building a120. Walked around for awhile and discovered that a120 was the where it said conseling. I was even more confused because I had no clue where my class was supposed to be and shouldn't the sign say counseling not conseling? Against my instincts I went in and asked for directions. Yep my schedule said main building a120 alright but in Oak Creek. I was in West Allis. And class started in 10 minutes.
I quick got directions and hit the road. I got totally lost. I may have entered Illinois briefly. No clue where I went or how I got there. I frantically called the hubbie. Luckily I caught him during lunch and he picked up (apparently I have a habit of getting lost and calling and needing directions right when he is in the middle of a meeting). With directions I was on my way again until I ran out of gas. It's ok I pulled into the gas station just in time. I made it to class and I was only over an hour late. Google says it is a 20 minute commute.
It was a rough first day back. I was exhausted and in pain from all that wandering around trying to find the write room at the wrong campus. I was ready to just go home and skip the class. It was really making me question whether or not this going back to school thing was a good idea. At least I didn't really miss much in class. The rest of the class worked on a get-to-know-you-partnership. I had to do a short write up instead.
