Everything is different and the same

So here I am almost a year later. Really getting a lot done blog wise. That is very clear. I have increased my reading of the fabulous blogs of my choice. Hard to get other stuff done sometimes. I get all wrapped up in the lives of others. People are such good writers. And so freaking hilarious. Love it.

So, you might ask what I have been up to other than reading blogsalot....

I got married. The whole thing went pretty well. Very pleased with the job we all did. Of course there were some things wrong. Even things that I have spent way too much time being bummed about. Just now am too busy to stress about it. AND, I haven't finished all my thank you cards. That is what spring break will be about. Must. Get. Them. The. Fuck. Out.

I am getting ready for another biggo test. The last 2 of my 4 national board exams. Everyone has said they are a complete nightmare. But even though, everyone seems to be passing. God I hope I pass. Wouldn't that just suck to be the only one to not pass. I would be so embarrassed and mortified.

I have been treating patients in our clinic. Man, do I like that. So much more fun than I thought it would be. And I seem to be pretty good at it. Or, people keep coming back anyway. So they like me (they really do.)

We are trying to get pregnant. We aren't yet. Not sure how I feel about the whole thing really. I have been pressing for this for years and here we are and I am letting stuff get in the way. Freak. That's me.

Time for bed. Must get up early and the time change is kicking my butt....

I don't seem to be blogging.

I guess I am not surprised. I seem to be doing lots of reading of the blogs, but not a whole lotta writing of the blog. I guess I don't even know when I would find the time on a regular basis to do it anyway. I would have to get up early or something. HORROR!!! Hard enough for me to get up when I have a place to be and people waiting for me.

Anyway. Enough of the bitchin'.

I have been busy. Got the wedding all planned. Mostly anyway. I am getting excited about it now that it isn't just a big ol' chore. Only thing left to do is make the invitations which I am not even going to start on until after a big test I have at the end of June. I have all of the materials to make the invites I just need to do the printing and cutting and putting together.

School is going fine now. I wound myself into a tight ball of stress the last 3 weeks of last quarter and didn't do a good job of destressing during spring break. So, I started the quarter off in HUGE resistance and resentment of my choices and of school and people telling me what to do and when. Hate that! But I have pulled out of it and am feeling mostly fine about the whole thing. A bit nervous about the whole Clinic Entrance Exam that I take at the end of June. It is over the last 3 yrs of school plus anatomy and physiology which I took 5+ years ago. But studying for it is going well and I have 2 months more to go. If I don't drop the ball it will be fine. It would totally suck to make a mistake and not pass the exam though. I want to be in the clinic practicing on actual people, please.

My house is rented to the woman that first contacted me about it. It just took several months for her to get her act together. There have been some strange things happening at the house. But, luckily, nothing that $500 and 3 plumber visits can't handle. Just a hassle is all.

Don't know what else is going on. It is begining to look like spring out there. We have had some nice sunny days interspersed with the rainy days just like normal. Yay, spring!

So very tired

I just came home from my rental house where I have been busily painting for what seems like weeks and weeks. It hasn't been that long really. Just feels that way. I have less and less stamina each time I go. If I didn't have my iPod playing either James Blunt or Aimee Mann I would not be able to do it at all. I have a trim coat and ceiling left to do in the one room. Yes, I am stupid, I am painting the ceiling last. How dumb is that! But at least it is due to the very cool reason of Will fixing the ceiling hole that was caused by a roof leak 7 or so years ago. I have a second coat to do in the other room and I am hoping I can get it done in the next few days. With school and obsessing about the wedding I am really busy though, so we will see.

Just asked for a sample of the invitation that I think I want. Can't wait. I am trying to do this whole thing classy and not super over the top at the same time. So, the invite is a DIY cool one with handmade paper and is very ecologically friendly. Very proud of myself. Hope I don't hate it. Hope Mom and anyone else I show doesn't hate it. Hard to fight for something against opposition from people I respect their taste.

I have a possible renter. Unfortunately she is in the process of a divorce and can't rent it until certain steps that seem to be slow get done. So, I wait and paint. I am trying to be patient. Money isn't too nightmareish yet.

I be done. Need to nap for awhile if I can.

Testing, testing

Is there anybody, out there.

Hmmm. Wonder what I am going to do here. I have no idea at all.

Who am I the invisible people might ask?

I am a graduate student who has been in school for 3 yrs and has 1 more to go FOR A MASTERS. Now that is a sucky thing. But, I like school in a whiney, complainy, lazy sort of way. I am almost 40. I am getting married for the first time in Sept. And I would like to have a couple of kids but we will have to see about that. Don't have any idea of my fertility. I tend to read alot of infertility blogs and mommy blogs to cover both sides of the coin.

That is it for now. Don't know if and when I will post again.
