Happy Hump Day!

So many things have been going. I finally feel like my life is settling down for the summer. Its definitely time to take a deep breath before the final plunge. Finals were two weeks ago and before that it was test, test, test, all right in a row. I had three big tests, including my final, in a matter of 2 weeks. It really didn't leave much room/time for anything else, although I did manage to enjoy some margaritas on Cinco de Mayo. These were just a few of the study tools we employed to attempt to squish all the info into our brains for the tests. I was highly entertained. You should have seen the whole room. It was quite entertaining!






I'm pleased to say I officially only have one semester to go. Seriously, its been a long time coming. A very long time coming. I will be officially finished in December. There really is a light at the end of the tunnel. For the last few weeks, we have honestly not done a whole heck of a lot and that's mostly due to Garrett being on Surgery (last rotation of 3rd...almost 3/4 of a M.D. yay!) and also due to my finals. I'm ready for summer to truly begin!

I have started a summer project, but I am not going to post anything about it until its finished (mostly because I want to see how long it ends up taking us) I'm hoping to get it done by the time we...MOVE...again. We just can't seem to stay in one place for too long, can we?! Garrett counted it up and he has moved a total of 11 times in the last 7 years. Most of the moves were from Cape to StL, but the others were from apartments in StL to other apartments in StL. Its very entertaining. So, the weekend after Garrett is done with Surgery, we will be moving yet again. Bonus is that this will be the last time we move before the BIG move next summer to...wherever it is that we end up going. I'm very excited about that! There are several options there, sadly there are no Missouri options. So we will be saying farewell to Missouri for awhile in a year. (But more on that as the time approaches!)

Other plans for the summer include time at the cabin, laying by the pool (of course!), Marco Island with the family, hopefully a weekend with Claire and Amanda, Amanda's birthday float trip if she ever plans it, Garrett starts 4th year, and in general just relaxing and enjoying my last summer before I get tossed into the real world!

Hopefully, I'll have some fun posts!!

For the summer, I'm going to try something. I want to get myself motivated to post on my blog more. So once a week on Hump Day, I'm going to start what I'm going to call Hump Day Happy!
Each week on Wednesday, I'm going to find a good news article! Every day on the news we hear about terrible things, but once a week, I'm going to find a happy article! Or at least one that I think is happy!!!

So for the first Hump Day Happy: Just Click the Link and see my first article, courtesy of FoxNews.com

  2. Yay for only having a semester left of nursing school and it has been a long time coming! So proud of you for sticking in there through the ups and downs and cant wait to see your photos from graduation.

    And I love moving so I can't wait to hear where y'all be moving to in just a few weeks and then in a year. It's going to be such a great adventure for you two as a couple.

    And I love that the first article you chose for Hump Day Happy is on a woman who creates Ugly Christmas Sweaters!
