Pump Your Blood
I know, it is sort of an odd title to a blog, but as I am learning all about the heart, it's all I can think about!
I grew up watching the television show "Happy Days" and a few days ago I came across something posted on the MTEC student forums that brought me right back to an episode that I had long since forgotten about. It was Episode # 142, "Potsie Quits School," where Potsie is in danger of failing his anatomy final and decides to use music as a tool to help him get though the exam. The song is called "Pump your blood," and if you've never heard it I encourage you to check it out here.

I was amazed at how many songs that I was able to find on You Tube in relation to the heart. So, a flashback to "Happy Days" has left me with a song that I can't get out of my head (or stop singing around the house!) and hopefully it will come in handy as I prepare for my exam soon.
I am beginning to feel the holiday crunch as I am still placing last minute orders and wrapping gifts as fast as I can. My daughter's latest trick is taking all of the presents from underneath the tree and stacking them in the living room on the coffee table. Luckily, I haven't had to re-wrap any as she shows absolutely no interest of opening them (we'll see how this plays out on Christmas morning!).
All in all, we've had a very productive week. My husband was on vacation and got several projects around the house completed, one of which was organizing the garage so that we could get both of our cars in for the winter season. That one made me particularly happy! My goals for the next week is to finish all of our holiday shopping, get out our Christmas cards on Monday and study, study, study! Knowing that I'll have a few days off with relatives visiting I need to cram in as much as I can next week.
As for today, I am off to the doctor's office again this afternoon to see if we can come up with a new game plan for getting rid of this cough once and for all!
Have a great weekend everyone and stay warm!
