Obviously if I am posting, I must have time off from school. Indeed!! I have officially passed nursing school and I graduate Friday night!! It is sad that you can't really tell that from the photo - no nurses hats for us! They don't allow them anymore and they don't require anything white except the jacket. No explanation for this because none was offered to us. I am so relieved and ready for a break from studying! It will only last a couple of weeks because I start classes at UW this summer - but a break is a break! From what I hear, the summer classes I have are a breeze compared to what I just finished. My husband and children can once again speak in normal volumes in our home and dare to speak to me while I am holding a book in my hands (I plan to do A LOT of recreational reading the next couple of weeks!!)

Campbell County children are going to school until June 4 due to the 5 snow days that we had. I figure that gives them about three weeks of doing nothing but driving the teacheres crazy, watching movies or playing outside. Not quite sure why they bother making up the days - grades have to be turned in on the 28th of May (or at least that is what I was told). Oi!! Gotta love the system! Otherwise, kids are great. Husband is great. Life is good. We are blessed!
