I also have been busy with my final semester of coursework for my Masters degree. It has been a stressful program that has challenged me more than I predicted but am glad to be starting my final semester as an intern before graduation in December. I recently accepted a congressional internship- highly coveted while also obtaining a supervisor from the National Association of Social Workers! I feel like I'm in the big leagues now and very excited to start being active up on Capitol Hill!
I am also continuing my marathon training. I still do not have a love of running but I do see improvement as well as feeling way better about myself and in shape!
Rooftop view from my running partners apartment after a long weekend run- 13.1 Miles!!! eek
Exploring more and more place around DC has been fruitful as well- I am learning some favorite spots as well as more places to take visitors that aren't the usual tourist destinations!
Shenandoah River
Library of Congress- my kind of heaven! Where you will find me on weekends completing my senior thesis!
US Botanical Gardens- very peaceful!
Local farmers market-delicious
To cap off the end of the month, Tucker finally went under the knife and got fixed. I was very emotional about this since the reason we got him was for breeding. Unfortunately due to some other issues it was for the better. I think I was worse off then he was the entire day he was at the Vet. Lucky we had no complications and he is at home resting with me for the week before I begin interning!
So for your laughs or sympathy, whichever your muse here is Roo in the cone of shame!
Off to run- training is a necessity to get ready for this marathon in October!
