Just had the midterm exam for the first of my two physics courses. I'm feeling great about it. Who would have guessed that physics would be so much easier than chemistry? Definitely not me. I was ready to do battle, armed with YouTube tutors and prepared to spend hours in the student center drilling formulas and procedures in my head. There are still plenty of equations to sort through, but they seem to be more organic than the convoluted constants that crop up in chemistry. It's a relief that I don't need to spend hours every day on this topic. It gives me a little time to read through an old goniometry text that I picked up for free. (Goniometry is the measure of how limber/limited joint movements are.) Once this class is over I have two more prerequisite courses to finish up. Applications for the schools I want are going out this month for the 2026 school year. 
My next in-person fundraiser is scheduled for next weekend. The resale shop I volunteer with was given a massive donation of children's books; more than they could handle/store and had been ready to throw them away! So I sorted through them to weed out the unsalvageable ones and will have a "books and bags" booth set up where kids can pick out 5 books and put them in an upcycled t-shirt bag for $5. 

Side note: This morning I found a really nice stretching routine for headaches, which I have been battling with all week. I want to share it with you as daily stretching is a great way to keep your body healthy and happy.

Stay tuned for more as the summer goes on, and remember to stretch!
