Christmas is around the corner, and after a couple of years out of academia, that means Christmas break again for me. I have one more exam on Thursday until I'm free for a couple of weeks. I'm quite excited for a break, and I've mostly run out of energy for studying. It's been a busy, but good semester. I took Health Assessment and Pharmacology. Pharmacology at Trinity wasn't anything to write home about, so I've really enjoyed this class this semester. Health Assessment was also very interesting. I now know how to do a full, very detailed head-to-toe assessment. Unfortunately, I don't know what to do with most of the information I gather from the assessment :) I have common problems next semester, so after that I should be feeling a bit better about actually seeing real patients!
I feel like this holiday season is flying by. Maybe it's because school was so busy; maybe it's because Thanksgiving was so late. I have so much to be thankful for, and I haven't done a very good job of actually sitting down and dwelling on that statement. We have a warm house; we have plenty of food to eat; we have a Christmas tree with presents under it for each other as well as for other family and friends. The bathroom remodel is almost complete, and subsequently, the dusty atmosphere we currently call home will clear up for good soon. I have a great job that gives me a good amount of flexibility, and both of us have passed all of our grad school classes so far!
I could go on and on, but I do need to study for my exam...last one before I can bake up a storm :)
