Well helloooooo oo there! Thanks to the mighty powers beyond me, and to my motivation: my 2 girls and to those who have helped me along my journey first and foremost. I DID IT! I FINISHED NURSING SCHOOL PASSED MY BOARDS AND AM NO LONGER A LPN BUT NOW A RN! That was the longest 2 years of my life but I have learned my strength as well as earned every accolade I have and will continue to strive for. I have always seen my name in lights in my head, and I will continue to strive. But anyyyyyywayyyssss. Back to this thing called life. I now am able to switch professions as I am what is called ” burned out” from the long term care settings. I am looking to learn as much as I can clinically and that just won’t do.
I lost my father back in February and feel as though through all of what is going on I continue to grieve. I feel as though he is at home a phone call away but then I go outside…..and I have his car……sober reminders.
Personal life wise….things are …funny. I am learning to laugh at things again because somehow along nursing school I lost my sense of humor. There is nothing funny when stressed and on the verge of breakdowns every semester lol. (See I can now laugh about that…out loud). My big 30th is this year…. and I want big things but I am wondering if I can make them all happen. Welllll….the blogs shall continue!!! Now that my humor is back and life is no longer hanging on the balance of exams……
Did you know that 80 year Olds are strung out on opiates as well? Not just the younger generation has a drug problem..randomn i know…until the next blog!!!!!
