Second Year of Law School Complete!

During finals, there is a character Dan becomes, whom his friends affectionately call, "Special Ed." I think Ed is one of Dan's coping skills when he's studying. He brings a lot of laughs, or so I'm told. ("Nailed it!")

Finals were pretty crazy, as they always are. Fortunately for me, Dan convinced his study group to spend their 10-12 hour days at the condo. For three weeks, they used my dad's big screen to review their outlines and practice problems, while they occupied the entire leather sectional, and then some. While he was very busy, at least he was home all day! His friends (who I also consider my friends, too) are great company. I'm always so grateful Dan found such a reliable, fun group to spend his three years of law school with.

We will also love them for donating much of their precious study time towards helping Dan and I move out of our apartment. Our system worked pretty well: I have a handful of friends who helped me clean the entire apartment and box up much of our belongings. Then Dan and his crew came over and moved it to a storage unit. Since we have moved back in with my dad, there is not room for all of our "stuff". But this just makes moving next summer that much easier! We are very grateful to my dad for so willingly and lovingly taking us back in without a second thought. The condo feels safe, and will always feel like home.

What a relief it was to put the studying, sleepless nights, and exam-taking behind us! Congratulations, Dan, for putting another year behind you. One more to go!
