Semester to bed

Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Exhale.

It's done.

It is only now, lounging before our blog with a yummy grown-up beverage and an empty plate of what used to display pumpkin pie that I realize how stressful it has been to complete 48 units of school while caring for a new baby.

For what it's worth, I remembering saying at the beginning of the year how impossible this would be. I was only doing it to be obedient to what God had, at that point, reassured me was, in fact, possible. Now I know it was. He was right. :)

In the meantime, I am plotting all the ways I can get out of nursing school in 18 months! I need to hurry up and become a best-selling author or stumble upon some long-lost inheritance from a relative from long ago. If anyone knows of any dead relatives from a prior century who left vague instructions for some future great-great-great-great-grand niece to inherit a sizable fortune (that has also adjusted for inflation) let me know.

Sorry....this is morbid humor. And probably not even funny. But I'm not really joking! I'm comfortable! I'm lounging! This must continue indefinitely into the future!

So, here's the update:



Oh! That's what I need to do. I should quit blogging and get my essay written so I can send off my application this week. That will be a whole new blog post. I must sound rather confused at this point.

So, this last week also brought a few other exciting developments.

I GOT TO KILL ALL MY MICROBES!!

Here is a picture of the little critters:



And here they are dying a gruesome death by bleach.



And my hubby totally kicked my butt in Scrabble, which was a first, by the way.



Which is totally awesome. :)
