How In The World...

...am I gonna survive this semester? I honestly have no clue what I was thinking taking 9 hours this semester to be a full time grad student! Oh yeah - graduating in May!!! Or at least that's the plan. I'm going to see if I can take the comprehensive exams instead of doing a thesis. A thesis was a nice dream. But I am so ready to be done.

Then I can spend more time with this munchkin. He loves his sunglasses in the car. Or more accurately, he hates the sun shining on him in the car, so he tolerates his sunglasses. The sun doesn't bother him when we are outside walking, just while in the car. Go figure. :-)

This past weekend, James spent 2.5 hours putting together our new computer cabinet. I am so excited about it! Hopefully we can keep the kitchen table clear now.

Ian was thrilled to see the new jungle gym that Daddy bought him. ;-)

Well, I am off to bid for my work schedule, write a lesson plan template, start research on my language and gender variation paper, fold some laundry, write a grocery list, and see about switching the thesis to the comps. Please check back in May to see if I am still breathing. Just kidding! Well, sort of kidding... Deep breath...here we go! The semester is officially in full swing!
