So we're T minus eight days until we sit for the Bar. Frankly, I'm just ready to have it over with. I've had moments of stress, moments of hysteria, and moments of pure confusion, but when it comes down to it, I'm just ready to be done with it.
I'm ready to be more active again - the weather has gotten beautiful here lately and I hate wasting sunny days inside. There are hikes to be made and fish to be caught and yoga to be practiced.
I'm ready to start planning - we've got a house purchase in the works (knock on wood) and I have landscaping and painting and decoration daydreaming to be doing.
I'm ready to read for fun - I've ordered a couple new books as incentives for finishing up this studying business, and they've been calling my name ever since they got here.
I'm ready to finish the unfinished - I've got scrapbooks half-done and a baby blanket half-knitted and pictures ready for frames.
I'm ready to hang out with people again - this studying thing has made me into an incredibly boring person, and I'm ready to just relax with my family and friends for a while, and not have the nagging feeling that I'm supposed to be doing something hanging over my head.
And really, I'm ready to start spending quality time with my husband - ever since we met, we've been "in the middle of something," whether it's school or internships or wedding planning. I'm ready to be able to just enjoy him for a while!

On the bright side, we had a beautiful Valentine's Day! I made blueberry muffins for breakfast (from a box...it was the least time-consuming thing I could do and still feel like it was "special"), and then opened our gifts! My husband got me a fishing lanyard and some fishing tools, and I got him a picture frame display as sort of an early housewarming/V-Day gift. Then we took Noodle to the dog park up the street, and tonight we'll cut the studying early to grab some Mexican food and watch "Couples Retreat."
