Good Morning, Mr. Journal! (1/21/13)  I've actually been up since 7am, I've just been working on other things. Please don't feel ignored, Mr. Journal. I haven't written since Friday, so here's a recap of my weekend:

 Friday - Every Friday after class, I do deliveries for the farm. Today, due to some time-management issues that I won't go into (they don't involve myself), some of my work is getting pushed back until Saturday. I'm not especially happy about this. Saturday is supposed to be my day off. Lately, I've been feeling very peaceful, however, so I'm just going to go with it, and not let it get me down. I got back home around 9pm and went to my computer to finish some last-minute class assignments, only to discover that Blackboard (the online class portal) was down! At this point, I was freaking out a little, all peace thrown out the proverbial window. Thankfully, my Comp 1 professor is understanding, and extended the deadline by one day. 

Saturday - I got up this morning and left for my farm delivery. I felt a feeling of weekend relaxation, even though I was working. There's something about Saturday morning that just makes you feel at ease, carefree. I stopped at Subway for a sandwich and coffee, and had a nice breakfast by myself. When I got home, it was back to work on my Comp assignment. Got that done, took a nap, then watched a movie and had dinner with my family. All in all, a nice relaxing day. With how busy the last two weeks have been, I'll take it with gratitude.

 Sunday - Farm store day today! Spent the morning helping get ready for the noon opening, then took a couple afternoon hours off before closing time and bringing home pizza for the family. Today was a day that I felt like I could have accomplished more.

 And finally, today. Woke up at 7, got some coffee and a slice of pizza, and got to work on schoolwork! I'm a little behind schedule in my work for my SS course, so I'm trying to get caught up in that. I'm looking forward to starting my first essay for Freshman Comp this week! As I conclude this post, it's about 10:15, and it looks like I'm going to be making a trip to the store for some supplies this morning. Have a good day, Mr. Journal! Your friend, Oliver
