Thats a Wrap

Wow! We have been finished with school for about two and a half weeks. Sorry I gave up on the blog at the end of the school year...it was a CRAZY last week. Finals were not so bad for Ty, but he ended up having to help me to finish mine. Apparently finals week seems like the best time for arts and crafts to some of my professors. I was printing pictures and coloring them by hand like there was no tomorrow. Then there was the final 5-7 page paper I had to write in Spanish and the poster representing the paper.  What a chore.  We managed to survive the week and are thrilled to say that we both got good grades this semester. 


Now, summer is here! We are thrilled to be back in Chippewa Falls and seeing family all the time. Ty started an internship in Eau Claire at a place called Applied Data Consultants and loves what he is doing and is learning so much. He hopes that this internship will get his foot in the door so that we can come back to Chippewa long term. As for me...I am still working as needed at The Rutledge Home and looking for jobs that might give me more hours. So far, no luck.  You know, its funny, now that we are back in Chippewa and its Summer, we are excited to go back. Only one year left and we are going to be FINALLY be college graduates! As Ty wrote when he had finished his last final, "School is done for the year, one year left...let this be a lesson to all...never take time off from school to "find yourself." Sooner or later, you will find yourself back in school."
