A long overdue update

So I always mean to update... but then I don't because I don't even know where to start. For that reason this is going to be a bullet point blog:

• Just visited Sterling in Georgia. Let's just say that the world is a little bit different on an Army base.
• I received another grant for this semesters tuition so all I am paying for my spring semester is $750. Awesome. So very, very awesome.
• My hubby isn't planning on staying in the army after his commitment. This means we will get to live together in only about 4 more years.
• Starting January 1st I will only get to talk to Sterling once every 2 weeks until mid-March. 
• Sterling will most likely be deployed in the fall of next year.
• Sterling gave me a brilliant idea of how to study. I record myself reviewing the lecture/hitting the main points and then I can re-listen to it while I walk Hank, go to the gym, knit, etc...
• Now that I can study and knit at the same time, I've offered my skills and I'm currently making things for three different people and making money for it... baller!
• I baked my first turkey today and it was delicious. Absolute success!
• I've gained weight :( boooooo... time to get on the running bandwagon again.
• Found out today that I have to take a graduate writing course this summer... along with 12 credits of medical courses. BOOOOOO.
• Tomorrow I am going out with a bunch of people from medical school for my birthday. Yeah line-dancing :)
• My house is extremely drafty. However, I bought material to make thermal curtains. Bonus!
• I have to get up early tomorrow morning to sacrifice mice. On my birthday. Booooo.
• I am praying to get closer to my family over the break. I sometimes feel like they have forgotten about me, just because I am so busy with medical school.
• I miss all of you. So much. Medical school is fun, but it really feels like I am back in high school and I have to try so hard to impress people. With you, it was just easy. Miss you girls.
• Time for bed... busy day tomorrow!
