Travel

Law school is .... well I guess this is the year where they work you to death. My class, my new job, my AWR, the MPRE....I think in my house we just look forward to the next vacation and hang on until then. Pretty much every break we've gone somewhere, and we have an upcoming weekend out of town planned. Then a big Thanksgiving dinner celebration, the holidays...we will be out of school!

I can't wait to finally be on flex fridays and be off every other Friday for awhile. I'll be able to get back on a regular work out schedule and cook dinner at home for us...it sounds really amazing. In the meantime, I just have to get through the upcoming weeks. Thank god for google calendar, I'm not sure I'd know where to be and what to do otherwise.

We also just finally got my grandpa into a "senior living" place. It is so nice and he loves it, and it's close to everything...I am really excited for him. I think it'll be a really really good thing for him. Plus he seems to really like it so far too. I love making him happy and doing amazing things like that for him.

Things are good. Crazy, hectic, but between the boy and I...we work it out. We talk time on the drive home to talk, and stay connected, and our little life is pretty amazing....I can't complain. This is my own little busy, overworked slice of heaven. I love it.

Washington DC

So I spent fall break in Baltimore with my boyfriends family and kids, and it was amazing. We went to a wedding, spent time with his family, and caught up on sleep. It's a beautiful part of the country, and the leaves were changing from green to red and it was gorgeous.

One of the highlights was by far visiting DC. I got to see all the memorials and spend time in the Capitol, the White House, the Supreme Court, and the National Archives. I had an amazing time seeing everything that we've studied so hard. I loved it - it was a really impactful trip and a lot of fun.

Seeing the Supreme Court, and the statute of Marshall and all the quotes on the wall, the old desks and gavels was so amazing. It was a really awesome experience, one that every law student should have.

Unfortunately, now it's back to the grind. Almost done with law school! :)
