Update

School is almost over. Summer break is almost here. I'm so thankful I decided against taking summer classes. So, so thankful. I need this break in every way for every reason. My last hard week until exam time is now over. My borderline personality disorder paper is finished, turned in, and now all that I'm lacking in that class is the presentation and that isn't until monday the 21st (no exam thank God). My last essay in Old Testament is finished and turned in. I'm a bit nervous about the grade but I'll be ok. The last BIG test before exams is over too. We have maybe 2 more quizzes but I can get through those as long as I read throughly. I still have to do my presentation in Fitness..but thats almost a joke. Then I won't have that class the last few days (or so he says...in my opinion we aren't going to get through with our presentations in time to take those off). Either way, thats good. My western civ is killing me. The teacher told me he'd email me the quiz I missed the day Ben was bad off, but hes yet to email it--even after 3 emails from me. We have one last test in Psych and hes using that on the exam--so its just the last few chapters. The End. So recap--my only hard exams will be OT and Western Civ. But mainly just because those will cover the entire semester. Well I guess Fitness will be too? I have no idea.

Our outside dogs disappeared thursday (when I was in the process of studying and writing OT stuff)..It was extremely depressing; however, a woman called friday afternoon saying she'd found them and brought them home. She worked down the road and saw them on the railroad tracks and took them home with her....which somewhat pissed me off simply because they would have been home within like 2 minutes if she'd let them be. But she didn't want them on the tracks. yea yea. Great for her. I had to pull the puppy, Chester out of her daughters arms. She'd named him Chestnut (which is pretty cool considering its so freaking close to his name).

I saw Ben on Saturday. Friday was a great day for him. He sucked a melted popcicle off of a spongue thing (the one they use to put water in his mouth when its too dry). Pretty cool since we were told he probably wouldn't eat anything through his mouth ever again. It was also the first day since Monday he'd opened his eyes. When momma called to check on him before driving the 2 hours to see him (well 3 and a half or so from her work--which of course is where she was) the nurse said he'd been awake all morning and that she turned on TV and asked what his favorite cartoons were (Tom and Jerry)..which was what was on..so that was pretty cool too. When I was there friday momma asked him to blink if he remembered me falling out of the treehouse when I was 4 and him carrying me inside the house. He blinked. I cried--which was hard to not let momma see but I did it.

I saw 21. I went bowling--bought socks out of a vending machine (3 stupid dollars) then Amanda spent a ton of money in the stick on tattoo quarter machine to get the tattoo Alicia and I had been fortuate enough to get. Thats only about half of them in the picture.

We went to eat at Logans..and that was pretty much my weekend. Not really restful after the extremely stressful week last week. But still. Today they are supposed to be moving my Papaw to the specialty hospital a bit farther away than my school. That will be so much better than a nursing home for right now.

Momma is still trying to work out finding a neuroligist to take Ben on as a patient and come to our house so we'll be able to bring him home. Shes found the other kind of doctor he needs I think...so its all down to this. Bad thing is, we don't have any neurologists in this area...so. yea.

And I guess thats all. Nothing serious to report. Just stress I suppose. Or the calming down of it. Either way..yes.
