Comps are over!

Five, four-hour exams later and my comprehensive exams are over! It has been all-consuming to memorize enough material for each exam and I still won't find out if I passed for a couple of weeks. At least my proposal is done so that I can defend both at the same time.

Each morning before I took an exam, life seemed to throw me a curve ball--my son forgot his lunch one morning--my husband's car needed to go to the repair shop another morning--it was never a straight line from here to there. I guess life is never as simple as we think it should be. I'm just glad this chapter is over.
