To Lucille

It is evening, and I'm glad that it has finally decided to cool off. I am happy to open the windows and have moderately cool air fill my apartment. I turned off the lights and Lucy jumped up to join me gaze out the window. She rested her head on my arm and I had one of those moments where I realized that the little creature I feel annoys me half the time, really loves me unconditionally. We sat there for awhile and then I went back to studying. It's the end of the second week of class and I feel as though I am managing quite nicely. I feel this way now, but ask me again how I feel after my test tomorrow. I was pretty down last week about school starting. I moped and just went to classes kinda glazed over. I don't know what happened to me over the weekend. I came back for Week 2 ready for action. I just hope that I keep it up. Now, I don't hope. I WILL keep it up.
I returned to work a couple of weeks ago. The pharmacy is still the pharmacy. And sadly, it will always be the pharmacy, which makes me really excited about the next 40 years of my life. All sarcasm aside, I am fortunate that I will have a successful career helping others. But right now, I'm just trying to help myself get through school. I'll make it. I have to.
Tomorrow is the weekend, and a long weekend at that. I am looking forward to a nice little break before I really buckle down.
