Hi Family!

Normally, I write my letter on Sunday, but last night, I needed to do homework.  My NY trip put me behind and I did homework most of the day Friday and Saturday, and still didn’t get it all done and I had an assignment that was due last night.  I was up late (for me) to get it done. 

My NY trip was great.  Even though I’m still in catch-up mode (hopefully I will be all caught up by the end of today), it was worth the trip.  My trip back to Tucson on Monday was uneventful, just long.  I was sad to hear about the Boston bombing.  I had a friend who ran in the Boston marathon; thankfully, she finished before the bombing and was fine.

Once home, Tuesday and Thursday I was at school; Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, I spent most of those days doing homework.  Fun!  Saturday night, I did go to a wedding reception; I really needed to get out of the house and have some adult company.  Three weeks from tomorrow, I will be done with this semester.  I will be taking Calc II during the summer, then I should be done!

Nathan had a good week.  He had a track meet on Wednesday where he ran well in the 2-mile.  He also had a meet on Friday up in Glendale.  He ran the 800m but he hurt his leg again.  He did finish the race, in what I think was a good time, but not as fast as he could have run if his leg didn’t hurt. 

We finally had Nathan’s birthday dinner yesterday.  I made a very yummy cheesecake for him.  Nathan wanted a drizzle to go on it, so I put some strawberries in the Vitamix with some sugar, then heated it up adding some corn syrup and cornstarch in it.  It was really good.  Nathan wanted an Oreo crust for the cheesecake, so I made ½ Oreo and ½ graham cracker crust. 

That’s about all the news for this week.

Love,
Meriden/Mom
