.x. School, & PICS

So I started online classes through Kaplan University on Wednesday, and yes, I am overwhelmed.  I have never been good at science, and bam, I have 2 (200-300 word) essays due by in the morning for Anatomy & Physiology 1.  I am stressed to max.  I just don't understand science.  Then to beat it all, I have a 300 word essay due by tomorrow night for Medical Terminology.  My nerver are up pretty bad.  But I did want to share some pics.  Merle had his casts removed a couple of days ago.  He just got fitted for his "Braces".  His feet and legs are so swollen and bruised (and they done the tendon surgery too a couple of weeks ago) and they healed up nice.  His toes still turn in a little, but his feet have come a very long way and I am so proud.  He's my little trooper.  His braces will be in by Tuesday, and it's the shoes with the bar on the bottom.  He will have to wear them all day and all night for a couple of months.  Only time during the day they can be removed is for a few minutes for bath time, and doc said only 1 bath a day...no more than that cause he needs to keep the shoes ON as much as possible.  Anyways...here are a few pictures!
