Will looks better today. He still is basically covered with slightly raised red welts, but they are much more faded today and not nearly as severe in coverage. He remains happy and wild.
Fun new phrases: “go outside,” “let’s go!” “want juice/agua/fishies/uvas,” “thank you, Mommy,” “go night-night”
After the events of yesterday morning, I began to tackle the first and longest set of Biostats (ie: Intermediate Biostats/Advanced Eval/Regression/Logistic Regression) comprehensive exam questions. I have been feeling good about everything so far, especially after getting an email “thumbs up” on my survey/sampling/M&E questions set from a professor. Then I started on these questions. I discovered that I cannot transfer multi-level dummy variables to specific regression equations and that simple probability questions can reduce me to a puddle of mush. Paul, thankfully, was able to pull me up with some probability help (even he was surprised that there was something on the exam he could do) but when I asked him to look at another question he said, “Holly, I don’t even know what that word means.” *sigh* I have serious concerns about passing this part of the exam. I’m going to try to work through the next set and then send the two to my professor with questions. The good news is, the questions didn’t take me long, so maybe I can stop worrying about whether or not I will finish in time.
Today, Will and I are going to Mobile for the weekend. We’ve been needing to go back and get the rest of our things (ie: the cats). Paul has big home repair projects planned and my parents have plans to take Will out golfing on Saturday (to hit balls and then play nine holes if the course is clear!)
