The end of Week 2

We pulled out a couple of spinal cords today during lab. It was a bit barbaric in nature. Using the bone saw and a hammer and chisel to break through the posterior(or rear) portion of the spinal column to get to the cord. The general consensus among the class is that the spinal cord was smaller than we all expected. Just estimating, I would say the diameter is not much larger than a pencil. But amazing is the only way to describe it.

After finishing the second week of school, I continue to feel pretty good. We had our first anatomy quiz today and that only verified that I need to study harder for our first test next week. All things considered, I am just excited to be starting my 3rd week already on Monday!

Another high point this week is the activity on our house back in Texas. We are currently in negotiations over an offer and we are praying to have a contract by next week. Aubrey and I are anxiously waiting to find out if we will be having a boy or girl on Wednesday Lord willing. Next week will be exciting and eventful to say the least!
