Spring has sprung out here in MN, but unfortunately, that heralds in the advent of the newest season....flood season. Once again my friends and family are doing their best to battle back water as a sudden thaw has taken ahold of ND. My mom has spent the last two days sandbagging at my Uncle Terry's house, and probably spent the past 3-4 weeks worrying about it. So far it sounds like OJ is staying calm, so that is nice.
With spring also comes girl's softball. Matt was "promoted" to JV coach this year, so he will have a larger team with more games. I think so far (1 week in), he is having fun with it. I am so busy in the lab (less than 90 days of bench work...eek!) that having him occupied is a relief. The extra $$$ isn't bad either, especially since he doesn't have to pay most of it out to go to FL this year!
Well, I better head back to work. My data dry spell is starting to end, and I am already hopelessly behind in my lab notebook, data analysis, and paper writing (not to mention thesis work). In one way it is nice to know things are going well, but in another HELP!
That's all for today.
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!
