Well, I did have to finish up my final exam, but it was the end of my summer class so that was a happy thing!  Now I have three weeks until the fall starts, and I&#8217;m just going to avoid thinking about how nuts our schedule is going to be then, since I&#8217;ll be taking a full 4-course schedule with at least two courses I know will be *really* brutal.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway though, today was nice (aside from a 5am start with an upset tummy and an unfortunately active Bobo trying to jump on it) we had an early nap at 8:30 and then awoke refreshed for a very pleasantly hot day.  I managed to finish up my final pretty quickly while Bobo played with his new cars, trucks and trains, which he loves.  We spent a few hours outside floating around the pool with Momo and enjoying the warm sun.  Then after a late lunch Bobo got to go out with Momo for ice cream while I got to *lay down and relax*.  It was amazing!  Tonight we just sat around, played and read books.  Might not sound very exciting, but for me it was a pretty great day, and well needed after so much stress and not feeling good lately.  \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I hope this week will be similarly low-key.  I have some home projects I want to tackle and a lot of Oracle stuff to redo and fix before the fall semester starts.  Hopefully there will be no more dentist\/doctor visits, but it looks like there might be!  The following week my Mom and Carl rented a beach house up at Hampton so we&#8217;ll probably go up during a few days that week, especially Saturday as it&#8217;s her birthday!
