Hey everybody :)

Not much to say except that I am having a wonderful summer and the wonderfulness just keeps coming!

I have to work tomorrow morning from 5:30 to 2:00 then I'm off to the lake to spend quality time in the sun with my lovely aunt, uncle, and chillins...then joined by other youth friends for a grilled kabobs supper and fun....then camping with the relations overnight...and all day in the sun and water on Saturday!!! How relaxing and inviting does that sound anyhow??? ;)

And then next week two more aunts coming to visit with the youngins and one is bringin another bestest friend along too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait!!!! It's been four years since Cindy has been out here!!!...bout time again eh????? lol

Anyhow I'm outta here :)

It's been so long since I've been on here! I am almost done with my first year of nursing school! At this time next year, I will be looking at graduation and having RN, BSN behind my name. And it will all have been worth it! :)

I still have my Psychosocial Nursing and Child Health Nursing finals on Friday and Monday then I will be done for the semester! I am taking one class this summer but it's online and so will be easy...Medical Terminology.

The week after school is done, I have a friend coming to see me for a week!....i'm so ready to relax and not think about school, just hang out with her and have fun!

Later on, in July, I am planning to attend Faith Builders College Student seminar and retreat one weekend! I am really looking forward to that...meeting people who are in the same place as I am.

And now, I think I will go visit my sister :)

Yoohoo!

I just passed my first class in nursing school! We had our final this morning for our first 8-week class...my heart goes out to the 4 people who failed out and will have to come back next year...but i'm super excited to be able to say I actually passed! On to Adult Health and the hospital instead of a nursing home!

In other news, this week is fall break so I'm skippin town for a mini vacation! I can hardly wait!

Well, I'll try to take pics and post them when I get back...tata!

What? Another post?

Well, I'm killing time till I go back to the eye doctor for my follow up on my contacts. I'm very much enjoying being able to walk around and outside etc and really see things, and not from behind frames!

Clinicals today were kind of slow and more full of charts and care plans than anything else...though that's going to be my job I guess...paperwork! I did get to see a skin breakdown that was very interesting though. The poor lady is in terrible pain with it but the family can't agree to send her to the wound specialist even though there's nothing the nursing home can do. Her spine is very visible through the skin all the way down her back but right about in the middle it turned red and is now purplish and continuing to deteriorate. It will continue to do so until the bone actually breaks the skin and protrudes. So sad.

In other school notes, I was seriously stressed out Monday night, feeling like I hadn't prepared anywhere near enough for my first Pharmacology test. But, I guess stressing does pay off because I pulled a 96 out of it...believe me I was one happy student!

I did very much enjoy last weekend....for our dear youth group that often seems lacking in activities....we had volleyball Friday evening with great games, then Saturday night we invaded our youth counselors pasture campfire site by the pond and roasted hotdogs and marshmallows and just hung out :), then Sunday we had youth night at my uncle's and had grilled kabobs and sat around another campfire! Very relaxing....maybe if I ever figure out how to put my pics on I will. Got some funny ones Saturday night .

Well, my brain is tired. So I will sign off before I write something off the wall!

Hello again!

I am tremendously enjoying my vacation! Right now I am in Georgia, staying with my wonderful wonderful aunt and uncle and their beautiful children! Its wonderful to just spend time together and spoil sweet little Cheyenne! As soon as I got in the van at the airport and said hi to her she got this huge grin on her face and we hit it right off!

Trevor is quite the energetic young man! But he is very sweet and not afraid to give hugs!

I had an absolutely wonderful afternoon. I got to see my awesome friend Cindy whom I haven't seen in 3 years! Its delightful...we don't talk that often but whenever we do its like we've talked every day...we just pick right back up....and today was just like that again! Bosom friends right from the get go! I luv u girl!

Was also able to see Laban and Rosie again. He was one of the pastors where I attended church when I spent the summer here and she is absolutely the best pastors wife I've ever seen! So much fun and we always had it back and forth! Her boys are a hoot too...so full of it and can come up with the funniest stuff! They have 3 children of their own and adopted 2...the last one is now 3 months old....and they are now expecting another of their own...the youngest two will be 8 months apart! But if anyone can handle it, that woman will! and still have time to harass me lol!

I luv spending time with all these wonderful friends and am looking forward to many more great memories this week! And also to the wedding Saturday....my first cousin on moms side is getting married to my second cousin on dads side....they are not related at all! Small world!

Well tata for now!
