Standing outside the administration's office at my elementary school when I was in 1st grade, I had a conversation with the nurse, Mrs. Tanenbaum, about how life was so slow. Like yesterday I can remember her words to me: "The older you get, the faster the weeks go. Enjoy the time you have, Libby."

Prophetic words from my nurse (who happened to be Jewish, nonetheless!) that slow day.

I cannot believe, at all, that it is week 7 and that I have as much work left to complete as I do. I seem to go into denial every time I walk into my apartment - as if the homework disappears when I walk in here. I wish.

Here's to two more full weeks before I'm gone almost a week back to the East Coast for a wedding. It's gonna be a full two weeks - and quite frankly, I'll probably not have much time for this dear blog. :)
