I am enrolled in school! I had an awful start to the semester but with a little schedule wrangling and a late drop/add I think I am going to be okay.

The world in my head is not the world I live in. For example, I had an idea of what online classes were and then I experienced reality. Head canon: online classes are like taking a seminar. Check in for lecture once a week and do the work.

LOLOLOLOLOL

I had to drop my English class because I didn't check in until the end of week one and I had already missed about five graded things and a quiz. I tried like hell to recoup while on vacation, but it was impossible. So drop/add. I must say, I did better than the first time I tried college. I just didn't drop anything then and never went to school so I walked around with a lot of Fs. So right now I'm taking college success for 8 weeks, and in October I'll start the English class. It's going to be crammed full in an eight week course but I won't start out by missing a whole week. Surely I can do this?

Gastrointerologist appointment tomorrow. Seeing a different person as my guy retired. I'm hoping he'll have more answers or solutions because I'm really tired of living like this.

Go YOU! Ooof, that would be a rough start, but so glad you have wrangled everything so that it hopefully works for you!

Everything feels very overwhelming at the moment. But I'm sure it will improve

Understandable! And I hope Friday's diagnostics help!

Do you have a major/certificate program -- find out who "your" librarian is. No major yet? Find out if there is a librarian for undeclared students. Trust me on this.

Pace yourself.

And yes, you are wise to not attempt to play catch up in an English class.

I hope your new doctor is a good one.

I do have a certificate, I will find out that librarian and see where it takes me.

I have a partial colonoscopy this Friday, so he's already better
