Welcome Back

D'ya know what? I actually feel like a live, honest-to-God human being this morning! I've been sick for 2 weeks but it would appear that I'm turning the corner. And... it's sunny! This is a good day to get stuff done.

It's a good thing that I keep getting emails from my department about summer internships, because I've only applied to two so far, and one of those already rejected me. I'm also trying to find a job for the rest of the semester, now that I'm done with my hospital job. Also on the list is deciding what classes to take next semester. Somehow, I need to find time to do my homework and study for Tuesday's prelim, and celebrate my birthday!

Speaking of birthdays, it's that time of year again in my family. My grandpa turned 86 yesterday, one sister had a birthday over break, and my mom's is a few days after mine. I'm really looking forward to homemade cheesecake with fresh goat's milk ricotta for my big day.

Speaking of goats, we have 23 kids this year, including a set of quadruplets. They sure made break interesting! We took some of them to a local nursing home and they made the residents' days. There's nothing like a cute baby for bringing smiles.

Speaking of smiles, I'll feel a lot better once I get some work done. Over and out.
