...aaaaand we're back.

Poor, poor, neglected blog.  Fear not, we have returned

We've been busy the past few weeks.  We took a trip to Nashville for vacation/school open house earlier this month.  There is a nurse practitioner program I was interested in at Vandy, so we spent a day over there taking notes and making decisions.  I've settled on getting a one-year accelerated RN from another school, getting the required two years of experience, then reapplying for Vandy's Emergency NP.  The NP program is 95% online, so wherever we are at in three years I can continue the program.  The rest of the time we perused the shops and interesting areas of Nashville and did our usmost to not think of anything related to school or work.

We just got back from spending about a week at Gal's parents near St. Louis.  By some random alignment of the planets, my fall break, Gal's work schedule, and my father-in-law's work schedule all lined up so that this little trip would have a lot of good family time.  Except for a trip to the St. Charles community northwest of St. L, we mostly vegged around the house and got caught up with the family.

Now we're back into the swing of things.  The office I work for at the university is putting together what amounts to a telemarketing campaign to announce to former Ag students that we are putting an Ag Business undergraduate degree online.  4,000 emails went out; 1,600 bounced.  Guess who gets to call those 1,600 people and share the good news with them.  Me and another graduate assistant.  We're thrilled.

Gal is getting ready to move from ER to OB.  From crying, whining adults to crying, whining babies.  Babies are right up Gal's alley; matter of fact, she was extremely close to going to OB when she first started working here a year and a half ago.  She's going to do great and have a good time.

Gotta go. The lab printer just spat something out.
