Heading home!

We were released from the hospital just after lunchtime today. Carl and I had to practice taking each other's blood sugar readings using our in-home monitor so we wouldn't fumble too much the first time we used it on Peter.

It is going well. The kids are happy to be back together. I am greatly looking forward to sleeping in my own bed! It felt wonderful to dress in my lady lawyer suit and go to my paralegal internship this afternoon. Choir practice tonight was sheer heaven. Belting out Leonard Cohen's "Halleluia" made me feel so glad to be alive.

I'm going to continue going to my internship three times weekly for another week or two. I've already delivered some good work and I want to deliver some more before I tell them that I've left Roosevelt. If they'll allow me to continue my internship, I plan to enroll in one of the top online programs -- from either Duke or Boston University. The ABA doesn't endorse online programs, but work experience (i.e. the internship) is far more important than the endorsement.

I intend to become a good paralegal while poking Peter for blood and sticking needles in his tummy. Having a reason to dress up and go out for 9 hours a week will be just what the doctor ordered to keep me pointing forward.
