I know I said I wouldn't have time

I know I said I wouldn't have time to post but today I totally need a reprieve from stupid school and school teachers.

Sara has had two basketball practices and we have seen an improvement in her ability to dribble. She even made three baskets independently which made her so excited she could hardly wait to tell her Dad when he came home.

Darrel is working and staying on top of his studies. We have to split time on the computer so that we can each get our work done, but he is putting forth great effort to do well so that he will get into his program. Hopefully we will know by the end of March if he is accepted.

I am 2/3rds finished with this semester. January 23rd couldn't come any sooner!! It only lasts three weeks but with the same amount of work that is in a 15 week semester. That is part of my frustration at this time. I actually spent the first 30 minutes of my lunch break this afternoon trying to get a teacher to take accountability and give appropriate feedback on an assignment. And I didn't even receive a poor grade. It was just the principle of the matter that we are required to be professional and thorough but apparently there is a double standard (as in every thing) and people flee when questioned about accountability.

However, I am really excited about my rotation placements in February and in May which is cause for celebration. The past two years seem to have gone by too fast and now I am doing the whole "hurry up and wait" thing. But that too will end and I can only wonder where I will end up.

I'll do my best to take pictures or attempt to figure out how to post a video clip of Sara playing basketball during the season. She is so proud of her small accomplishments that she has already made and I know she'll want a record of her childhood.

I now feel more relaxed since taking this small break and now I am heading to organize our common areas and get dinner started. YAY...;)
