summer is almost half-over. time is flying by.

i finally forced myself to buckle down yesterday and begin preparing for this school year. i've been dreading it since school got out. i'm really anxious about this school year and i don't know why. i know it's like riding a bike though. everything will be fine once i get back into it.

med school applications are RIDICULOUS! tyler applied to 29, yes 29, schools. do you know how much time and money that means? his primary apps are in and now he's working on secondaries, which means another 70-80 bucks and 3-4 essays, multiplied by 29.

i continue to fill my days with workouts and pool time. the wives of the reps down here are really social and do a lot of fun things together. i spend hours at the pool daily chatting about bachelorette and other equally important things.

speaking of bachelorette, we didn't bring our tv down here and it's been interesting. i miss it a lot and then i feel ridiculous for missing something so unimportant. so i've been forced to read. yes, i'm an english teacher and i don't like to read. i struggle to watch some shows on our painfully slow internet. publishing this post will probably take several minutes. and i cook and clean like a good wife.

i think the thing i cherish the most about summer break is sleeping in. oh how i do not miss forcing myself out of bed at 5:30 a.m. every morning.

life's good...

Did your husband apply to VCU by chance? Good luck with all the applying and interviews. Luckily Ben had already applied and got accepted to Med school before we were married!

Love you Jodi. Thank you for being the wonderful companion and support system for Tyler that you are.

I just went down to visit my sister in the summer sales world and I swear it's like the dorms! So fun.
