Can't Focus

Friday morning my mother had gastric-bypass surgery, so yeah... that's giving me lots of anxiety.  I wish I could just skip ahead a year so I know that everything turns out okay.  She's doing well now, but it's just the start.

I'm making my way through the first Lord of the Rings book rather slowly.  If only I could read the series without actually having to spend the time it will take to read the trilogy.

I can't believe it's already the end of January.  On Wednesday  every junior in my school has to take a state writing exam.  I'm sure it will be easy, but it's going to be a waste of 90 minutes.  My American Lit teacher said that they only grade based on the traits of writing and how well you get your point across, so we can lie when it comes to statistics. Like we could say, "Over 75% of high school students in Fremont, Nebraska have an after-school job," without knowing if it was true.

Anyway...
Best Wishes
Kate
