Life with the Two Crazy Dogs

I am so ready to call it quits with this class.   The course I am taking is Principles of Management and there is a lot of work to it.  This is an accelerated course and I should know from previous experiences that accelerated classes are tough and require a lot of my free time.  I have free time right now and I’m blogging. 

Why?

Because I’m so tired of watching the videos that came with the book.  I took as much notes as I could and I now need to summarize them to a 1.5 or 2 pages summary.  There are 10 videos to view and each video is 40 minutes.  I have till July 25 to complete these videos. 

Don’t get me wrong.  I find this course to be very interesting.  Forming an organization, managerial hierarchies, ethics and diversity, globalization, control, planning, leading, and resources - all these sound so familiar to me.  I am fortunate to work in a corporation that has the exact formulas within the organization.  I am particularly interested in mergers and acquisitions.  I assume there are great deals of processes to follow that intrigue me.  

With summer around the corner, which I think with the heat and humidity we have, summer is already here.  I tend to spend my summers out on the trails or just working on my scrapbook and jigsaw puzzles.   I told DB I usually slack a lot when I’m in a 16-week class and I work a lot harder in an 8-week course. 

I know I need to get my credits in to get my degree quicker and that’s why I signed up for the summer class, but now I am totally kicking myself in the ass for doing that.   However, I will be kicking myself even harder if I didn’t sign up this summer.  Either way I’m stuck.   I suppose I simply need to sacrifice a little for something more important. 

That is life……
