So 6 months later in my life.....

Alright, I'm going to buckle down and get more consistent on this blog.

Summer vacation is over today and it's back to work tomorrow (I work in the school system). Ali has been back to classes at the local community college for 2 weeks already and has made the decision to go back to her original college next semester. Her dad isn't pleased because he feels that she has unresolved issues that made her turn to anorexia. I know what the college can offer her in the way of a teaching degree and I feel that this college has the best options. She'll come out with more degrees and be more marketable. In order to get back into this college, she has to meet with an admissions counselor so I guess I'll be taking a day off from work in the next couple of weeks to take her.

Sam left for London last week for a semester of studying abroad. I am forever grateful for Skype and a webcam! She was homesick to the point of crying on the phone one night at 3 am, but really seems to love it there. Today was the first day of classes and I can't wait to talk to her.

My summer vacation consisted of sleeping late and catching up on my reading. I was hospitalized in early June with severe anemia and needed 4 pints of blood. Needless to say, it took a while to stop feeling exhausted all the time.
