See, this is the problem with starting a blog...you have to update it once in a while! I am thoroughly enjoying my Spring Break and the beautiful weather, although feeling somewhat lonely since Andrew is off camping with his Dad. It's hard to believe that this time next year we will know where he'll do his residency! It is still a little weird to think about being married to a doctor, but I am so happy to be partners with someone who will have the chance to be a positive influence on so many lives. Being a doctor is a little like being a teacher I guess, although you can't exactly say that teachers deal with life or death situations on a daily basis; I guess pathologists don't either (which is what Andrew intends to do). Still, it's nice to know the chance to do some good is right there in front of you, if you'll just grab at it.
Read an amazing book, "The Secret Life of Bees" over the break (finished it about an hour ago). Very well written and once I sat down and got into the meat of the book, I couldn't put it down. I think when I retire and when the children are all grown, I want to do nothing more than read and scrapbook every day. There is something about reading and forming your own images of what is happening in your book that will never be replaced by watching film adaptations of books. I almost never like a movie that is based on a book if I read the book first, it is always best to watch the movie first, and then read the book.
OK, enough rambling...off to find the next book to devour before my break is over!
