* I skipped coffee today and didn't feel like a jittery mess at the end of the day. Bonus.
* I wrote two exams today; took me around 2 hours. I don't think I did well but will find out tomorrow. I came out of there feeling stoopid, but shook it off.
* With the exception of an hour to eat supper and then compare complaints about the exams with my rooommate, I've been studying constantly since I got home. One more hour then bed.
* I was awake at 5 a.m. today and couldn't fall back asleep. Not even reviewing IPS, SIPS and FTS could put me back to sleep.
* Jack's dad has moved into a nursing home today. My heart is broken for my beloved husband who had to handle this transition alone.
* I'll be home in 2 days! I'm packing my big suitcase with whatever dirty laundry I have laying around, and a big mess of textbooks.
* OSCEs are next week. These are A Very Big Deal and will be a major consideration in determining whether or not I can start my clerkship before the end of the year, or not.
* I desperately need some self-care. My hair needs to be colored and cut, I need a massage, and I want to be able to have a bath or shower that I don't have to rush through.
* It will be after 10 p.m. by the time my plane reaches altitude on Thursday night so I'm not planning to study on the plane. Just me, my Kindle, and likely my sweater for a pillow.
Break is over. Now to constantly remind myself to unclench my jaw, drop my shoulders and continue stuffing my brain.
there's no place like home,

exams,
travel,
