My practicum is done. I bound it on Monday and drove it to the campus office on Tuesday.

Today I just received my comprehensive exam. I have until next Saturday to finish it. It will be a 12 page paper (essentially) based on a case they have given me.

I haven't read the cases yet. I'm going to tuck into bed and do that now.

Wish me luck.

He's been running to his diaper bag and pulling out a diaper and wipes then running to the couch ( Read more... )

I need to sell my horse. He's a very wonderful dark bay thoroughbred. His name is Luckytobewithus or just Lucky. He's 11 and has been on unofficial retirement for the past 3 years.
