We are just a few short days away from the start of school again, even though everybody else headed back weeks ago. LSU is the kind of fella who likes to sleep in a little. He also calls in sick a lot, or cancels due to bad weather quite frequently. Patrick only goes to school about three weeks in the Spring semester... cause he's out for Mardi Gras, Spring Break, Easter, and of course, Arbor Day, Grandparents Day, Secretary's Day... you name it.
Anyway, this is a significant semester in my mind. It's the halfway point. Patrick's been in school for 2 1/2 years, and now we're working on the last 2 1/2. It's really rather exciting to me. Everbody says, "Oh, wow, 2 1/2 more to go, that's a long time!" Well, QUIT SAYING THAT!! It's not! The first half went really fast. Now we're closer to the end than we are to the beginning. That's a good thing.
I don't have much to say today... lots of things to do so no time to write. Have a terrific weekend everybody!!

Posted by: Amy at January 16, 2004 03:47 PMThe second half seems like it would be the easier of the two just because you have a better direction/idea of what and where you are doing/going and more to look forward to.
