A Whole Day at the Ocean and All I have to Show For It Is These Berries

It is Sunday and the day was our oyster. The waves at Portland Headlight were crashing high from a hurricane. The air was so warm the thought of surfing could not be purged. It has been a long time since that has happened. It was on the other side of the planet that I surfed last.
Last night it rained really hard and everything was all wet and smelled rotty in a good way. We walked around the woods in Fort Williams park area for awhile. All those leaves almost got the best of me; I had several three stooge banana peel moments. Eliot somehow avoided falling for the most part. He got chased around by some puppies, guess they thought he was delicious the way they kept licking him. He found some new duck friends as well. They were quite interested in making his aquaintence too until they found out he only was holding the top of an acorn.
This evening has been the night of school again. Borders for studying, home for roasted chicken Ala Jess, back to the computer who was diametrically opposed to me and my paper writing work. I also think the blog and facebook have had their role in my study downfall this evening.

seems to me that i have not been in touch

Nursing school is underway. Catheters, IM injections, multipul choice exams with evasive answers are all about. I am so happily overwlemed at the moment. That will change in two weeks when I have my next exam. Every week I dress up as a nurse and do my thing. It is not unlike what I have been up to. The main difference is the assessments we do. Every class we are expected to write our assessments of the clients we are assigned. I have some work to do.

My little family has been thriving despite the changing of seasons, scheduals, and scholarships. The hardest thing about school still is not seeing Eliot every morning.
