free writing

today is wednesday the fourth english class and i must say it is getting a little easier last week i was concerned about finding my way around and that is not such an issue now i am really not sure what free writing even means but this is my attempt i am anxious about the paper but look forward to learning how to do it what ever comes to your mind i am very thankful to the girl next to me she has been very helpful as well as many others that makes things easier the end result what doesnt kill you makes you stronger i have a blank suddenly and seem to be struggling for something to type it is much better than the last time we did the free writing my hands were shaking so bad that i could barely type humility is something ive been feeling at lot of lately and i believe that is a good thing there are some good lessons to be learned from be humiliated and some great stories to tell from my experiences the grandkids thing its funny when grandma gets to go to the front of the class and sit by the teacher and i am learning to take deep breaths as i am becoming more aware of the fact that i hold my breath

The Story of an Hour

     This story is about a woman with a medical condition that was not always happy in her marriage. She reacted to the news of her husband's death with sadness and shock. After some time to think, she suddenly felt that a great burden had been lifted. She was still a young woman with many opportunities awaiting her, no one to hold her back. There would be times that she would miss him, but more than that she felt free.In the end, the surprise of her husband appearing at the door caused her to die of the heart disease.

Introduction

 




I was born and raised on a farm in rural Missouri . I was number three of four girls and enjoyed working on the farm.As a child some of my fondest memories are at my grandparents driving the tractor and playing with the animals. I married young and started a family. After having three children I moved to the  Springfield area in the late 1980's. I am now enjoying the " empty nest "as the youngest graduated college in May and bought a house.                 
I have been blessed with three beautiful grandchildren ranging in ages from eight years to six months. I spend as much time with them as possible,nothing warms my heart more than hearing their laughter. I also enjoy gardening, swimming ,traveling and baseball games.
After being laid off from the post office where I worked as a city letter carrier for nearly five years I have now been forced to make some major life changes. This is my first time in a classroom in nearly thirty five years and I am both excited and fearful. I look forward to learning a new way and working past my fear.
