Law School Begins......

So it starts......

Got my Orientation Packet from school. Has my first reading assignment and my first legal research and writing assignment. Is it sick that I am really excited? Orientation starts August 18th and classes start the 23rd.

I started the reading and we are researching a fictional case of discrimination against a disabled young man and his parents who are trying to purchase a home in a 55 and over community. Its interesting reading and I am looking forward to my classmates interpretations.

On the knitting front, I am about 15 rows from finishing a stole I started in Aug of 2008. Time to get it of the needles. Started a baby sweater for my guy's sister and have about 12 rows left on that. Also have a pair of socks I am working on but my brain is so overwhelmed with work stuff that I can focus on TsockTsarina Tsocks right now.

On the work front I am waiting for the outcome from a Loudermill hearing last week. Yes my boss is trying to fire me. I am still at a loss how this could even be happening. I have no history of discipline and no previous medical control problems. But now I am under a microscope and there is a good chance I will be fired. My lawyer seems positive we would win at arbitration but I am skeptical. I am determined to post a bit more often to journal my law school experience so I will update again soon.

Union, Graduation and Knitting

Someone pissed in everyone's Cheerios today and it is not fun!! Tried to help out a union member because I am on the executive board and it is my job only to find out I had been basically lied to, something I do not handle well! And whats worse is he doesnt see it.......

On a better note, I graduate from undergrad this coming Saturday! I finally will have my Bachelor's degree. Law school officially starts on Aug 23rd and I can't wait. Need to get my hands on the Nook my mommy promised me for my birthday/graduation so I can start some reading :-) Mom and my best ACO are traveling with me to MD for this event and I couldnt be happier about it. The girl's night on Friday will be awesome!!

I love my knitting. It is the only thing that is keeping me sane the last week or so. I am currently working on a cardigan in a beautiful purple Angora/cotton blend yarn that is working up awesome. Also have 2 Tsock Tasrina kits on the needles and a drop stitch scarf. Trying to clear some stuff off the needles but need to cast on a new project for graduation so I dont go nuts the 2 hour wait for our procession. Thinking a baby sweater.
