Luck!

Things that happened in the last two weeks:

  1. I won a prize in the local toystore's raffle!
  2. I was offered a graduate assistantship for the school year (yay for paying no tuition!)
  3. I got one of the ninety billion tiny scholarships I applied for (and I do mean tiny, folks, but hey, it's FREE MONEY!) , which was very nice news after receiving 89,999,999,999 rejection letters.

Then this weekend Dutch got sicker than she's really ever been before, and I ended up taking her to urgent care tonight, at the urgent urging of the advice nurse, and I became alarmed that my luck may be shifting direction. It's not, though - many hours and dollars later, we're home, reassured that she's fine. We got a free pedialyte freezer pop. Dutch is pretty happy, and my luck is holding! Here's to another lucky week ahead!

Make sure you bring that cactus game to PT - it looks like hours of family fun.

"Each player is constuct the cactus tree by adding or reducing a cactus stem."

I've never been a 'construct the cactus tree' before and I'm looking forward to finding out what that might feel like.

See you soon!
