When shifting into 3rd gear for it grinds a little if you dont let the rpms fall.....but now it is getting hard to get into 3rd,4th,and 5th. It doesnt seem to be the clutch......it goes into 1st and 2nd ok.

First make sure that the clutch pedal travels fully and is firm. Verify the reservoir is full.

The syncronizer ring for the higher gears (3rd and 4th and then another for the 5th) may be needing replacement. An overhaul would be the best way of dealing with this issue.
