I’M Alive!

Hey all-

I haven’t updated my blog in forever!  :(

I have been adjusting to my new schedule at nursing school.  I think I finally have a handle on that and the overall unknown of it all-  We don’t have a real regular schedule.  We are in clinicals now-  We just finished our 2nd week!  I feel really unsure all the time, but I am enjoying it overall.  The class portion is A LOT of work because it is an accelerated program.  We do topics in a day that the traditional program does in a week-  I thought I knew what I was signing up for but I really didn’t!  Some of the 32 students have kids, and jobs… I don’t know how they do that!  I don’t have either… I just have to find time to take care of me and my fiance!

The wedding is in 20 days!! I can’t believe how excited I am…. :)  Most of the big stuff is done- I am just doing all the little DYI decortating projects I took on for myself.  I am working on making candy bags for favors right now so i have bags upon bags of hersey kisses in the house!  It was hell last week….  I have a goal for this week so I have been able to avoid them!  :)

While I was gone I have really been maintaining around 190-  For that past 6 weeks I would lose a bit, gain a bit, or stay the same at my meetings.  I think that is pretty good considering everything I have going on right now… I am not going to lie-  I know I could have done better, I haven’t tracked that whole time!  My goal this week though is to track-  That is all… I did all day yesterday so I am on a roll!  :)  Also I am going to go back to blogging at least once a week-  I love being able to look back at all my previous success and troubles… for that 6 weeks I have nothing to look at because I didn’t make time to blog-  Honestly, I haven’t been making time for myself, but I am going to now.  It is important-  How can I be a GREAT Nurse if I can’t even take care of myself??

Well, I have to plan my shopping list for the week!  I am going to get some healthy choices that are quick to make!  I want to make it easy on me ya know-

Have a Great Week All!
