My Main Goal!

My main goal is to graduate high school. The steps leading into this would be being positive about going to school if I tell myself that I am going to have a good day and be there on time and stay motivated then I will do it. Secondly, I need to be more focused in class if I don't sit next to my friends then I won't talk to them and I would focus on what the teacher is saying that way I will actually know what we are discussing in class. Thirdly, I need to get more organized that way I would know what homework I had to do then I would want to study and do my work more if I was organized then I would get good grades. Lastly, I need to make school work my number one priority instead of my friends because I am always wanting to go out with my friends instead of doing school but I can do both I just need to manage my time better. If I follow these steps and goals then I should get through the rest of high school and BOOM.. graduate!

Think About This..

Think about if you got divorced how would you settle property, child custody, and divorce costs? Well, I would probably let him keep the house and I would probably move into a smaller place. As far as custody over the children goes I would want to keep them during the week and he could have them on the weekends and every other holiday.

What if you were a single mom how would you cope emotionally and financially? If I were a single mom I would cope with things emotionally by taking moments to relax after having a hard day at work. Financially I would pay for bills first and then we would have spending money left over.

Elderly parents wanna move in with you what conflicts and adjustments would arise? Well, I wouldn't be able to take care of them like they should be so I would probably put them in a nursing home.

You just got remarried how would you discipline the kids? How would you divide the chores? What would you want the kids to call you? What would you do about a living space would you want them to move in with you, you move in with them or get a new house together? Well if I got remarried I would probably ask my husband what he would want me to do if they were misbehaving just to set some guidelines but if we didn't discuss it then I would just wait until he got home so he could decide what their punishment should be. Dividing chores I would probably let the older one do the more difficult chores just because they could do things that the little ones can't and let the little kids do small things like pick up your toys, etc. Personally, I wouldn't care what they could call me just as long as they were comfortable. I would rather get a house together that way I wouldn't have to be in the same house where memories were made and same goes for him, I would want a fresh start something that was ours.

"Happy" After.

         In Family Studies we've learned how to build and maintain a healthy relationship.You have to build a strong foundation my grandma and grandpa have built a strong foundation by starting out by just being friends which I think is personally a good thing that way you know the real them and not who they are trying to be whenever you are just friends you tend to open up more so they know more about you. You tell them your secrets and they will always have your back and they have yours that's what friends do then it led to something more but things never really changed all that much since they are still best friends they just are married and have a healthy relationship. While they were just friends they learned each others interests and they are pretty compatible they both like the same things although my grandpa likes to go gambling and she doesn't so she usually stays at home whenever he goes gambling which that is okay with her. I have never seen my grandpa and grandma fight but they must have a way of apologizing.

"Happy" Before.

I think my Grandpa Jim and my Grandma Darlene have a great relationship. I believe they have a good relationship because they give each other their space when she is at work he'll go out and talk to his friends which is good that he makes time for his friends. He is one of the funniest guys I know and is a kid at heart which is why I think she loves him so much because he is always making her laugh and they can be themselves around each other. I asked my grandpa what is the key to having a good relationship is and he said always trying to make her smile because when she's happy I am happy.

Follow Me.

I decided to follow "Sarah MK" for this assignment because she has a lot of blogs about food and I LOVE food. It also tells you the recipe for it which would come in handy if I wanted to make them. She also talks about in Chocolate Chunk Cookies that the cook doesn't do the dishes which is the same at my house whenever somebody cooks you don't clean things up they do. If you cook it they clean it. She is also funny and that keeps me interested in her blogs along with the pictures she posts all the food looks delicious! She seems like a parent I would like to become one that can cook good meals for her family every night and try to be the best that I can be.
