We’re a happy family again! My Joel is home and currently on leave until the end of the month. The trip back from Arizona was lovely and uneventful. We even got to stop in Fort Stockton to see my Aunt Nita. I hadn’t been to her house in almost 20 years. My sister and I [...]
For those who have had trouble, the picture links to today’s dictionary.com Word of the Day, obstreperous. But I wanted to update because I just got back from what is probably the most successful walk the dogs and I have ever had. This really is working, and I’m quite the proud mama.
I had another wonderful trip to Arizona. We are now under the one month mark until Joel comes home! I must say, if he had to be somewhere, that was a nice place for him to be. I certainly enjoy visiting. Unfortunately the med school in Tucson requires its students to be Arizona residents. If [...]
I have an exciting night planned, and most of it involves TV. The Biggest Loser airs at 8PM, which I will watch live while the Season 3 Premiere of LOST is covered by TiVo. Then, to pass the time I would otherwise spend waiting in pure agony, I will watch the TiVo recording of America’s [...]

The week went by quickly! It seems that when I post something short with a promise of more and then don’t follow up, I get a call from Joel’s parents. We had a nice chat though. I guess I just got busy this week. Tuesday was errand running and catching up, Wednesday was my rat/pigeon/fish [...]
The alarm situation happened again this morning. Not cool. We really don’t want this turning into a crying wolf situation and start not taking the alarm seriously. Something must be done. Oh and I got a nice violation and bill in the mail from last week’s incident, for not having a residential alarm permit – [...]
The MCAT is next Saturday! That means this week is all about preparation. I already took one practice MCAT; my plan this week is to take another one today, Monday, and Thursday, analyzing and studying in between. I’m less concerned about the concepts than being able to focus for such a long time (about 8 [...]
Long story short, Sarge was bitten by my boss’s German Shepherd on Sunday, and he had to have stitches. He was sent home with antibiotics and pain pills, which he only takes wrapped in lunchmeat. This morning before I looked over my notes for my final organic II exam, I put his meds on the [...]
