This past week

So the new year has begun and I can't say it has started off well. Two weeks into the new year I wound up hospitalized with an obstructed kidney due to the darn medullary sponge kidneys that I have. I was in the hospital for 4 days and underwent a procedure to remove the stones. I have been home from the hospital for less than 24 hours and here I am worrying about my school work.
I feel as if I am soooooo behind when I'm actually not. I was able to contact my professors while I was in the hospital to inform them where I was and ask for an extention of the work that was due by Tuesday. Both of my professors agreed to let me submit the work late but here it is one day home, still in a lot of discomfort and I am worrying about school.
The entire time I was in the hospital there were only 2 things I was worried about. My kids and my schoolwork. Ok so it really wasn't a matter of submitting work ontime. I knew my professors would grant me an extention. It is more a matter of "can I really do this?" as in complete the work for this term. I can't say that I am bored with school because I'm not but I just want to graduate already. Patience has never been one of my strengths. Growing up my mom used to tell me all the time that I had no patience. It doesn't seem to be getting better with age either. My patience level is soooooooo low and I get frustrated very easily. I want to get into the "meat and potatoes" of my schooling already, which would be the actual transcription part. I know that before I get to that point there are other classes that have to happen first but call me lazy or whatever but I don't want to do those other classes to get where I need to go, I just want to go there already. I have found that for some reason, during this term I am not giving school "my all" as I did in my first two terms. Part of that is my whole problem with patience and a bigger part of it is my depression. Sometimes I just get so down in the dumps that I figure why bother then I start to think about my kids and the end result of completing school and I move forward. I mean I definitely have the time to focus 6 hours a day on my schooling but when I sit down in front of this computer and open up the Kaplan website my mind goes off in other directions and before I know it it is almost time to pick my kids up from school and I'm like "what the heck, now I don't have any time to work on my schooling." I feel as if my priorities for school are out of whack and I have absolutely no idea how to go about getting them back on track.
