Busy Bee! (pg mentioned... not mine).

My life is so hectic right now!!!
  • DH is borrowing his dad's car while his is in the shop for hail repair (30 days... ick). 
  • We are getting a new roof on Monday thanks to the same hail (Holy deductible... ick!). 
  • We are remodeling our back patio, which I am thrilled about. DH has until the week of May 24th to deliver my oasis. I am hosting a baby shower on that patio on May 24th, which I have mixed feelings about. I am thrilled to host a party (I love being a hostess), but I am not thrilled that I didn't come up with the idea myself (long story). 
  • Finals are coming up, I currently have over 90% in each class.
  • I need to take the RN entrance exams in June. NERVOUS as hell. I bombed them TWICE last year. The subject? One is Maternal/Neonatal Nursing and the other is Pediatric Nursing... oh the irony of it all.  
  • First RE appt in July... BEST NEWS IN THE WORLD. 

*Edited to change the format... I am anal / a perfectionist like that.

  • Neonatal nursing is my specialty :) it is just so different from adults or even big kids. It's tough because it's so specialized. I always had trouble with the labor and delivery stuff!
