And so begins the "Week of Productivity"!

Beginning today I have until the 14th off from my job at the doggy daycare. This time was originally requested off to take a road trip with my mom to Colorado to check out potential clinical sites to apply to this fall for my CLS major, and to also take a tour of CSU. This trip has fallen through, unfortunately, but I am going to seize this opportunity to be productive and get some things done I've been pushing off in my free time between shifts. I am now challenging myself to accomplish as many things in this time as possible!

Today I finally put in my air conditioner after a string of 95 degree days has crushed my basement apartment's ability to remain naturally cool. I have also continued researching the mess that is deciding between WICHE, residency, or contract for picking a vet school when you don't have one in your state- but that is a rant for another blog another day!

My present task is compiling my experience hours and accomplishments and the like from my past- quite the undertaking since my record keeping of these things has been a tad disorganized or incomplete... But looking at the outline reassures me that I can balance out my lower GPA.

Tomorrow I set out to return to my Yoga! I have done it on-and-off for the past 5 years or so (by that I mean 2-3 times in a month and then nothing for 6+ months) but this past Lent I opted to do Yoga 6 times a week instead of giving something up which is a far more challenging goal when you do this towards the end of a very busy spring semester and every minute is priceless! It went quite well, I met my goal, and I got to the point I couldn't imagine ever spending another week without a yoga practice; but then Finals week rolled around and ruined everything-as it tends to do and I was down to yoga just once a week. Then came a 10 day vacation to Maui where I still managed to do yoga 4 times, but upon my return home I jumped straight into work and good-bye yoga! I've only done one session since May, and that just won't do...

Let the games begin!
