Onwards Towards a Beachbody!

Zara was dozing on my lap this morning. Very cute.

 

The boil order is lifted, so I can have COFFEE!

 

Got Beachbody set up on the Roku, but can't find my yoga mat. I should be able to get one at Walmart. (I love that I can have an exercise class in the privacy of my own home!)

 

The Tai Chi class recommends having a grid on the floor. I'm obviously not going to put one on the carpet, but I wonder if I could put one on the yoga mat. Need to investigate.

 

Zara keeps on snuggling in my lap. Happiness is a warm mommy, I guess.

 

Ate dinner at a new restaurant. it was pretty good, although the service wasn't particularly fast (but it's a coffee shop, so I wasn't surprised).

 

I ordered three library books on Javascript, so I guess that I'm working on it over Winter Break.

 

Got a new yoga mat. All systems go!

Zen and the Art of Word Problems

I have a busy lap this morning. First Mimi and then Zara were inhabiting it. I need to get ready for work, girls!

 

Zara wanted to climb on my lap or the back of the chair at dinner, but Mimi was right there going "Ack" at her. So she ran back and forth a few times. Goofs.

 

My boss bought a pizza for a library focus group, and there was some left over that he wanted us to eat. So I ate three pieces, and I'm calling it dinner. Free dinner!

 

I'm trying to figure out my subsequent classes at Heartland. I'm taking classes in the Adobe Suite next semester. In the Fall, I'm taking two programming classes. Then I was planning on taking Calculus I in the Spring of 2020. The B.S. in Computer Science at the University of Illinois - Springfield only requires one semester of Calculus, but other programs require more. Plus, I'm considering getting a Master's Degree in Data Science, which requires three semesters of Calculus for one of the programs. I'm thinking that I should just bite the bullet and take three semesters of Calculus at Heartland because it would be cheaper than taking it at a university. I'm also planning on taking Coursera courses in Statistics and R this spring to support some research that I want to do next summer. I'll have to take an official Statistics course at Heartland before applying to Computer Science programs.

 

It would be better if I took Calculus I in the fall of 2019 because the three-semester sequence starts then, but taking Calculus II plus two programming classes and working full time is on the short road to a rubber room. I suppose that I could take Calculus I and one programming class in the fall, and Calculus II and one programming class in the spring. And take Calculus III and Computer Science II in the Fall of 2020. That works :)

 

My life seems like a massive word problem :)

 

Mimi was going "ack" at Zara again before I fed them. I told her that she's a punk.

 

I'm tired, so I think that I'll pay some bills and then go to sleep.
