How did I get so far behind?

I really wish I had a good excuse for being so far behind in my TIS class.  Maybe my brain was abducted by aliens.  Maybe I got too caught up in school and lesson plans.  Maybe I got busy with my grandchildren.  Maybe  I got over whelmed and blotted out how much I still had to do.  I do want to finish this course.  I am very interest in learning new things and trying them out.  I think I just need recharged and restarted.
