THAT WHICH WE PERSIST IN DOING BECOMES EASIER FOR US TO DO; NOT THAT THE NATURE OF THE THING ITSELF CHANGED, BUT THAT OUR POWER TO DO IS INCREASED!!



I am just sitting here (at my father-in-laws house) studying, waiting for Dallas to get off work so I can go pick him up and we can drive back home. I'M starting to fill a little up to my ears in the Perineum (don't ask, its anatomy) when I look up and read this awesome quote they have hanging over their dining room table. Yes, the quote has been there for a very long time, and no I've never actually stopped to ponder its meaning. What an awesome quote!! It was so perfect for my state of mind!! It always amazes me how things just seem to inspire us at the perfect moments in our lives!!

I can conquer the perineum!! It really is the hardest part of the body for me to learn. I've struggled with it in the past and again it is here to haunt me.
Side Note (I have to conquer it by Tuesday! AHHHHHHH!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALEB!!

Today is Caleb's birthday!! He's 2 years old!! Time sure does fly.....................

Time

Time does funny things to Dallas. He can't seem to keep it straight:) For instance in the last post he mentioned our trip to California, TWO WEEKS AGO!! The funny thing is we went to California over the 4th of July which was just last weekend.

He also was so very wonderful and fixed the dryer, although it really only took him maybe 1/2 an hour. I know because I was watching the clock... I was really hungry.

On the other hand I have been sick for an entire week!! Monday morning after our trip I woke up with a scratchy throat and it has only gotten progressively worse. Now I have this annoying cough!! Not only is this annoying for me, but my fellow test takers probably aren't too appreciative either!! What ya going to do??

He's going to be really mad at me for ruining his story, but really, get your facts straight love:)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Life is in one of those weird "slowly fast" stages where days seem like they will never end, but then you realize that the summer is more than half over and you have to go back to school soon, and you wonder where all the time went... yeah, one of those. Natalie is studying like crazy, and I am working like crazy, and there hasn't been a whole lot in between.

I finally got the house (or at least the downstairs) put back together from our trip to California 2 weeks ago, and added to my list of manly accomplishments: I fixed our dryer! Bwahaha! It started making an awful noise about 2 weeks ago, so I took it all apart and fixed it! The belt had come off the track, and it only took me 2 and a half hours of kicking and cursing at the dryer to figure it out!

Natalie has her next big Anatomy test tomorrow, which marks the halfway point in her awfully awful Anatomy class. Not only has she been studying for this test basically every waking minute, she got sick sometime last week and hasn't been able to get rid of the bug. Turns out you still have to go to class and take the test even when you aren't feeling well. Not very nice if you ask me!
