This doesn't feel like summer.

Sorry for the absence.  Now that i'm back in school, my anatomy class has taken over my life.
This is what i've been up to.

This mega binder was just the material after the first exam.  It's as full as it would normally be at the end of the semester.  Madness.

Just. So. Tired.

I'm trying to stay positive and count my blessings to break up all this studying.  Just a few:

My sweet ballet girls.  I volunteer with an adaptive ballet class for little girls with special needs.  It has been my favorite thing to look forward to every week, and I always leave in a better mood because of them.  They just performed in the company recital and a city-wide talent show.  I'm so proud.  This is the class at our recital with their wonderful teacher, who also happens to be in the fabulous profession of OT.

David's birthday.  It was a low key day but we managed to both have the day off, which was quite a nice treat.  Ignore that the birthday pie is store bought.  That is just my life right now.

My crazy dog.  He's half husky/half lab, meaning he's normally fluffy and sheds a lot.  We had him shaved for the first time this week and I died laughing when I picked him up.  He looks like a skeleton!  At least a cute skeleton.

My hope is that your summer isn't as hectic as mine, but if it is, I hope you find the little things like these to break up your day and count it all joy :)
