Everything that could go wrong, did......
It all started with the fact that in both of may classes, I had projects due, discussion boards and some tests in my other class. That's all fine and dandy except all this fell on the week of Easter weekend. We had family in from out of state so I was running back and forth between visiting family and doing homework. Then on Mon. after Easter, my car broke down. So, that took a few hours out of Mon. to do homework and a couple on Tues. as well to get the car repaired. Then on Tues. before my project for this class was due, the e-book library was not functioning properly. I would log in but when I wanted to open an e-book, the page would loop back to the log-in page. I called tech support, but they could not fix the problem. Tech support gave me a toll free number for the library, but of course, no one answered. I had to leave a message. I know that it is partly my fault for waiting until Tues. to get my paper done, but.........on the other hand, if the e-library was working I would have gotten my project done. As it stands now, my project is late. I need to retrieve info for my references. I printed pages from the text that I needed, but did not print reference info. I figured I would go back into my fav's and retrieve that info later. I am so exhausted and have a killer headache, I'm just about ready to "chuck it all". I have been checking the netLibrary e-books about every 30 minutes. It is 2:30 in the morning and it still is not working. I'm going to bed.

Hi Michelle,
ReplyDeleteI am sorry this last week was so stressful for you. If it is any comfort, we all were kind of in the same boat about it being Easter and spring break and all. I had my daughter & granddaughter from out of town for 8 days and I had to keep working. I am still driving a borrowed car because my own was totaled in September. And I have worked all day to finish grading the 8pm class final project. Now, I am doing our class weekly grades. Then I can start on final papers for our class! Believe it or not, three other people were later than you. I know I will not get to your papers at least until tomorrow night and maybe not until Tuesday.
