Freedom

For the last 3 weeks I have been grad school free.

I can't even begin to explain the feeling that surrounds not having homework, papers, projects, readings or observation forms to complete.  It is freeing, but that doesn't even begin to describe the past few weeks. 

The last two weekends have been a blur.  Last weekend we left early Friday afternoon to head to my parents house to celebrate my graduation.  We arrived home late Sunday.  This week was testing at school and I've had a massive case of allergy issues.  Friday we left after school (that is after replacing my flat tire) to head to Tim's parents house for the annual Wix shoot.  We just arrived home an hour or so ago.  Shew!  Tired!

With that said, none of this would have been possible if I were still in grad school.  I think I keep waiting for the "next" class to begin.  It's slowly starting to sink in that this chapter is over.  Like so many others it has come and gone with only a few (many) tears.  :-)

I am so thankful that I can enjoy my weekends again.  I have a million diy projects that I can't wait to start.  New decor for our home that we've almost lived in a year (holy cow) and I have only partially enjoyed.  A hunt for a new car since mine is falling apart.  Oh, and spending time with my hubs doing things we both enjoy and haven't had time to do for the past 4 years.

Ahhh, life without grad school is going to be great!
