Spring semester is almost over!

When did time start flying by so fast? Finals this semester really snuck up on me. This semester has gone by so quickly, I don't feel like I ever really caught up. I also have a couple assignments that I need to do in the next week or so. This semester has probably been my hardest ever and I had so much else going on too. And I just found out that summer semester starts three weeks earlier than I thought, so I only have a week off after finals before I start again, argh!

I applied to a master's program that starts this fall but even if I am accepted, I don't think I am going to go. I have really been thinking and praying about that one. If I do that, the program starts just a couple weeks after the summer semester and I need more of a break than that. Ben and I need a vacation! We haven't been on one since we moved here. Plus, my first choice program starts in the spring so I think that I would rather see if I am accepted there and if not, then I can apply to other schools later. I'm taking a risk and I may kick myself later but I think it's what I need to do. One of the lessons God has been teaching me over the past couple of years is to not take on too much and balance my time better, so I'm trying to do that but I forget sometimes. I'm already looking forward to the time off!

At least the summer semester will be a pretty easy one. One of the classes is one I have been looking forward to and another is basically just observation hours. The other two aren't bad either, at least I don't think so, hope that I am right about that. Maybe I will finally be able to get more done around the house. I have a few projects that are have finished or not started that it would be great to complete. Just so you can see the sort of thing we have been up to, here's a couple pics of the puppies "helping" us install the floor downstairs! This is the best they were all day. The floors aren't quite done yet, heehee, too bad they can't help more. When we get more finished I'll post some pics of the house.

It think it's great that you're blogging. Of course, I didn't expect you to have a pink layout, ;). But it looks great, and I look forward to getting lots of updates. :)
