Just when we thought things in life couldn't get any crazier....
they DID!
But that's ok. We just put on our big kid pants and started trucking away!
Tony got a 4.0 last trimester and is just starting another bout of school (sounds like he's contracted a serious illness.... careful everyone... it's highly contagious.....) He still loves his program and comes home everyday with new stories for me, new ideas, and a general fervor for learning and trying new things. He is attempting a special project right now, although I can't imagine where he is finding time between school, research, internship hunting, basketball, and keeping up with my ridiculous schedule. He is such a champ... he is even my patient every Monday for 3 hours! He (albeit rather grudgingly) lets me poke around in his mouth and pester him for weeks. I can't believe how lucky I am that he supports me so fully.
Dental hygiene.... wait.... I don't think I want to open this can of worms! In summary, classes and clinic are going very well. The curriculum is challenging, time-consuming, and sometimes tear-inducing. Luckily, I get to come home to my sweet husband every night and he reminds me everyday why I am going through this. Then volleyball workouts remind me why most schools don't let dental hygiene students play collegiate sports! Just one day at a time.....
The sun teases the east coast. It will shine exuberantly, then laugh at you when an icy winds cuts your bones in half. But every day is a little warmer :) We can't wait until summertime. Heck, we would even settle for leafy trees at this point!
