Stress, stomachaches, uncontrollable nerves, stress induced IBS, inability to eat, insomnia. Sounds great right? These are just a few of my issues as I prepare for and begin finals.
As I was attempting to prepare for my first exam this morning, all three kids felt compelled create a chaotic atmosphere. This did not facilitate the retention of the study materials I was reading. First the fighting, then the yelling, the hitting, the running from room to room, "mommy can I...?", the dogs, the interruption of meals and nap time, etc. There's a reason why this blog is called The Griffin Zoo.
Anyway, I sit down to take the exam and I draw a complete blank. What I was able to remember was what Madison ate, the movie she begged to watch, and the reason Jake visited time-out. Not at all helpful in passing the class. I did my best but my best isn't going to cut it.
This insanity can't be over soon enough. Rant over.

(((HUGS))) I hope you did ok! I can't imagine trying to study with my 3 kids. My house feels like a zoo most of the time too. I hope you get a nice break after finals!!
Hope things go okay. I can't even think about trying to study with anyone around.
Good luck! Just think of how wonderful it will feel when you're finished.
hope finals went well, keep us posted )
I hope everything went well and you are getting a much deserved rest.
