Change Is Hard

…but change is certain.

Trying not to be afraid

My big project for one class is due Monday.  The practical web design final is Tuesday, and the theory related written web design final is Friday.  Next week is going to be rough.  I wish it were two weeks from today, I’d be graduating tomorrow.  Given, I guess, that I actually pass the web class.

I need time to work on web stuff, to gain some confidence with it, try to understand a little more, but I have a lot of hours of work this week and next, and group work that has to be done for the project due Monday.  I’m starting to feel stressed, as I knew I would.  But I”m trying not to be afraid.  Trying.  Sometimes it’s hard to think, and that’s never good during a finals week.

Today on my drive to AA I heard there was a closure on s.b. I 75 down near Monroe.  A semi truck involved with a “small red four door” car, as described by the traffic copter guy.  He said it was hard to tell what the make of the car was because “the car was crushed from the back up to the front seat.”  That’s exactly what dad’s red car looked like, hit from the rear.  Today there is an accident investigation under way, which means someone is either dead or seriously injured.   I wondered, for the rest of my drive, whether the family knew yet.    I’ll be thinking of them today as they face a world changed forever.

Makes those pesky finals seem not so important, doesn’t it.

I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.
