Okay, not really. While I'd like it if people did the right thing because, ya know, it's the right thing, I'm thrilled to see that money and threats can do the job as well.

I did it!! I just sent a final draft of my dissertation to my committee members. I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders and I'm happier than I've been in months. I don't want to get too excited as I'm sure they will come up with a bunch of changes they want made, but I feel like I've really taken the first step towards the end.

There is a light at the end of that tunnel after all.

Leave me a comment to this post.
I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better.
Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions. 

Inspired by Minxie's post of the same title, here is my cut free post and commitment to at least try to focus on the positives of life.

*I have a wonderful son. He's only four and a half right now, but already I can tell that, if things continue as they have so far, he will turn out to be a great adult as well. He's smart and happy and makes friends easily. But most importantly, he understands, at his young age, how his behavior can hurt others, and despite normal childhood pride, he hardly ever hesitates to apologize when he has behaved badly or hurt someone.

*I'm finally graduating. It's been a long path to get me here, but I can almost see the end of the tunnel. I'm going to finish in the next couple of months and will be able to move on with my life.

*I have a job. Despite the fact that this was a difficult job year and some of my friends, who looked much harder, are still unemployed. And it's not just a job; it's a good job for me, in a place that I think I want to live. And really, that's just a bonus.

*I sold my house after only two days on the market. And the inspection report just came back with not a lot of things to fix, so I think the probability of it falling through is pretty small.

*My husband is getting laid off. I know this last one sounds kind of crazy, but we're actually in a position where this is a good thing. He was going to have to quit soon anyway so we can move, and now he gets to take a severance package with him. And despite the fact that we are not in the kind of economic hardship a lot of households are in, that cushion, and any unemployment income he might get while searching for a new job will be greatly appreciated.

Now it is your turn. Stake your claim on the positives. Find five and put 'em in your journal - without a cut.

So today was the first day of showing our house. I don't know how I'm going to make it through this if it lasts very long. We had a 9:45-10:45 showing and had to take the child, dog and two cats and find something to do with them for an hour. We also had two hours of panic cleaning and fixing before we left. Then we were home for all of 20 minutes before getting a call for a 2:30-3:30 showing. More panic cleaning and fixing ensued. I don't know where all the things I keep fixing are coming from, you'd think I'd run out of things pretty soon, but that doesn't seem to be happening. Anyway, before we left we got another showing for 4:00-5:00 so now we had to find something to do with the child and the dog for two and a half hours (we decided we couldn’t work with the cats for that length of time). Then, when we got home just after five they were still at the house. We went over to the neighbors to hang out for a few minutes…Over 45 minutes later they finally left. Then, finally home, I found more things that needed to be fixed, mostly spackling and paint which seem to be my life lately. Arrgh, I don’t know how much more of this I can take. This house better sell damn soon. On the plus side, I don’t think I’ve ever had a house this clean before. Please, please, please let this be over soon.

End of rant…I feel much better now.

Now that it's over, I can claim my Snarry-a-thon fic. It's my first non-drabble Snarry and I was very happy with the response it received.

Have I mentioned that I hate moving? Well I HATE moving!! And to top it all off, we aren't even moving yet, just getting ready to move. I can't wait until all this is over and then I swear I am NEVER moving again (well at least not if I can help it).

Happy mothers day to all the moms on my flist. I hope you all have a wonderful day.
