Coming to a close

Cannot believe the end is finally here. It seems like this term has went especially quick. I am sure having the holiday's mixed in helped!! I think that I have learned a lot in this class. I believe that my writing skills have improved. At the beginning I was not too sure about this whole blogging thing. But honestly, now I see how much it can help. Not only does it get you writing more and thinking more, but it also gives a non formal way to "blow off steam" and discuss concerns with others that may be feeling the same way. Again, something I will continue to do from time to time. Hope others will do the same!! I am glad to have a break for a week. Yet, excited to see what the next term will be like.

Looks like I may have to have surgery to have a ganglion cyst removed. I have had one now since early in the last term. The first time, I went to my doc and he was able to aspirate, this time, he wasn't able to do that. He just shot it up with some steroids and I think I actually came out with more pain than I went it with. He said, if it doesn't shrink with the steroids I will have to have the surgery to remove it all together. I probably should have just went ahead and done it yesterday or at least scheduled it but now, I have to wait a couple weeks to see if it shrinks. Then of course, I will be into a new term and won't be able to do it until my next break!! I will just have to do!! Hopefully, I won't be in too much pain!!

I wish everyone much luck in this class and in future classes!! Thanks for a wonderful term!!
