Alright - all you little busy bodies out there - can someone tell me how I am supposed to keep up with:

• 4 classes - I will be in 4 classes until December.  In December, I am taking a break from school.  I am not taking any class in December - unless something I need happens to start in December.  I was sitting here feeling guilty for taking a month off of school - I mean, crap.  I have been out of school since 1999.  It's 2009.  I was off for 10 years!  Why do I need a break?  But I have been taking classes back to back since last August.  I should look at my Academic Plan - but I think I have taken 40+ hours since then.  Ok.  i just counted.  I have taken 43 hours - and that doesn't count the 12 that I am in right now.  That's decent.  Maybe I have earned a month of school.  Anyway, my point is, how am I supposed to keep up with homework when I have so many other distractions.
•  TV!!!Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty, Dancing with the Stars.  There are other new temptations that I would like to watch but I can barely keep up with those 3.
• Stewart and his little busy body homework and cub scouts and more homework life.  I am sometimes really surprised at the amount of homework that he comes home with.  Sometimes the amount is managable and sometimes it takes every ounce of patience that I have to get through the worksheets with him.  And then it's time for spelling practice.  He is a rockstar speller- but he takes after his mom and dad and is mathmaticly challenged.  When he starts to get frustrated, he writes his numbers backwards.  Perfectly backwards.  I have to channel every single ounce of patience I have to help him through his homework - and I'm not the most patient person.
• This weekend I need to do all of my regular assignments PLUS a 6-8 page paper (it's my literature mid-term) and I need to complete my final for yet another class.  That's a lot of homework.  i have got a jumpstart on my final but i still need to do the essay questions.  I'm not sure how I am going to write 6-8 pages on a story that is only 6-8 pages long.  I chose to write it on satire, in A modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift.  6-8 pages is a lot.  I'm not sure if I can do it.  Plus i know Bill has his own homework and we have kids that want attention .  There is never enough time.  Ever.
