Now that my stint as a temp dental assistant is over and I officially start my summer vacation, I have been thinking about summer vacations of the past.

So I guess you could say my creativity for titles is off today…and it’s an off-topic post.
Classes have been going well – working out the kinks and preparing for future semesters has been keeping me busy. But, it seems the girls have figured me out – which is good and bad. They still need [...]
