What a journey!

The last two weeks have definitely been trying. Work has been busier than ever and I don't think I've ever had so much paperwork due at one time! After working a lot of overtime, I came home to more paperwork, well school work that is! Out of the "11 weeks of craziness," I am in week 8. We are almost there!! I think I have 68 assignments left...and somehow that doesn't seem intimidating. Looking ahead for this week, I have three papers. I'm hoping to do them this weekend but we'll see how that goes! I know I get really frustrated with having to do schoolwork but I have to remind myself that so many things have happened to lead me to this point and I have no doubt that God has placed me right where I am. He has a plan for this craziness:)

In other news, a lot of friends are having babies! I now know of 7 people having babies!! I think I'm going to start buying baby gifts in bulk:)

Luther and I traveled to Lynchburg to hang out with some grad school friends. It was an awesome time catching up and playing games. There were definitely some "priceless" moments while playing catchphrase and while watching the random facts that came across the screen of the music channels:)

We're getting ready to pay off two more school loans...that's always super exciting:)

There's really no other news to share! Since I'm taking the GRE in April, I have a box of vocab words to learn (in all my spare time!) Here's the random word that I just picked out of the box

Inculcate (verb)- to teach, impress in the mind: Most parents inculcate their children with their beliefs and ideas instead of allowing their children to develop their own values.

499 more words to go:)
