Busy and loving it

Now that my school schedule has changed, I have been able to go to baby jakes field trips and I'm so very happy about that. He is loving school and the teachers are amazing.
I was able to also go to a UCLA women's soccer game with Jessica and Kaelyn. It was a neat experience and I love that I get to be apart of it with my girls.

Crazy last minute

Being in school limits so much that I can do! Our friends were headed to Mead and Jake was going to go by himself and I was going to stay at home and study. I just couldn't do it, I kept getting the feeling that I needed to go. So I did! I bought a ticket after class and jumped on a plane, it was awesome. I have never done that and I was scared flying on a plane by myself but I enjoyed it. Becky and Nikki drove me to the airport and Rachel and Laurel picked me up….AWESOME friends!!!!!!!
Baby Jake skied, the kids played and I relaxed…loved it all!

Pedis is done!!!!

Thank goodness that pediatrics is over. That was a rough semester!!! I do know that I love working with children and I can see myself working in this unit. My teacher taught me a lot, and I was surprised that I only cried one time in that 8 weeks. thanks to my nursing friends, who stopped me from walking out. The bonds I have are irreplaceable and I am grateful for them!

Some fun

Trying to catch up on my blog when I have the spare time. The kids have been doing great in soccer and loving every minute of it. I'm, on the other hand, having a hard time being everywhere all at one time. Some of the games are at the same time and Jake has been working a lot of weekends.
Now that we are in the midst of the holidays all of the fun stuff is out and of course we need to play with it.

Tuesday

Today was a busy day but fun! I got to have the Anderson kiddos over in the morning and after school. I love love love how they are happy to come over. Before we left for drop off I was asked to paint little Andi's nails after school, she had a smile ear to ear. The two double mint twins (Cole and Jake) were very talkative and asked for a chocolate milk run at Starbucks. I think there was some high quality sugar in that box because they were wired. After school I get to hang with the Evans kids and since Jake was home I left the 3 boys with him and got the older kids. My girls are now doing AR testing after school so we hung out and waited for them to be finished and after we took a quick trip to VONS for some ice-cream. Love these kids to pieces and glad I get time with them.

A girl in the nursing program that I am not fond of posted a Facebook post about how she has no food and she needs help. Her and I have some differences and she was not a good classmate to me back in first semester but that aside I cannot let someone fall when I can provide. My friend and I contacted the teacher and told them we wanted to help so I got some food together and will be dropping it off at the front office for the girl. I told them I didn't want to be known, I think its better that way and I hope this helps her. Just because two people don't get along doesn't mean that we can't be civil.

SOOOOOOO nursing school

I have a pretty hard teacher this semester and I have been having a pretty hard time with it. The anxiety is so thick you could cut it with a knife. I'm sure that I'm not fun to be around lately. It's not that I get yelled at but the condescending tone is not bare able at times. I was told today not to wear my wedding ring and to get a single band and I was hurt about it because its my wedding ring and I should be able to wear it. Cindy brought some much needed cookies over the other night it means a lot, she has been so great in helping me with the kids.
Last night I said a prayer to ask for a good day and that I would not have a hard time. Now mind you this was 9:30pm and I was ready to go to bed. I had been preparing for the next day and it took me a while to get my paperwork in order for the patient I was going to be caring for. About 10mins after the prayer my phone dinged and it was my teacher switching my assignment to another patient. After I spent hours prepping for someone else I needed to go back in my office to look up other meds and prepare new paperwork. I was so upset! At clinic today it went well, I didn't have such a hard time and I didn't cry so God defiantly did answer my prayers. The nurse we worked with was very nice and she put a smiley face on my paperwork and just that little gesture made my day.

Baby Jake goes to Rachels on fridays and what a blessing to feel calmness that my son is in a good place with people I trust. I cannot thank her enough for loving my children and supporting me with my schooling.

Today

Today I had to work at an urgent care unit. I went into today kind of bummed because I'm missing out on a family vacation and Im not happy with it. At the unit I was in I thought it was going to be a great day no drama no stress but it was not great. I can't wait to have these last two semesters done!
