So, today was quite a long day in some respects.
I forgot that today is my wife’s goofy schedule day, so I didn’t get up till 8am, which is when I meant to be at work. Oops. I got ready and went down to UNM’s hospital, as my stepdad was receiving a PET scan. [...]

After just a few weeks of classes, I’m losing some focus. During the summer, it was easy - three courses, five days a week. I really like that model.

So I finally finished summer school today. It feels like this huge burden has been lifted from my shoulders. The classes were tough, but I feel like I did well. I know I got one A, and I think the other two are B’s, so that’s awesome.
I’m so thankful to have a [...]
