WOW that sounds hectic! :willy_nilly:

Good news! I'm healthier than 98% of the population of Americans, YES!!!! I just got the medical exam for life insurance test results back! :hurray: Apparently I have good blood sugar, isn't that great? :D Sorry, had to share, I'm excited!
 
I'm happy for you Val! Good health should be celebrated! Keep it up too b/c your health effects the quality of your life when you get in your "old age" lol!
 
I know. I seen it--good thing you're a nurse because that means you and the family gets HOOKED UP with health care! I see so many people's parents and grandparents all screwed up and YOU KNOW a lot of things could have been prevented if they would have taken better care of themselves.....ya know?
 
Hey there :)

I see that you started some of your Nursing classes today! Congrats on that. I start mine next week and I'm excited and slightly nervous. I noticed from your previous post that we have the same classes, I think :) I have my Patho and Pharm on Weds and my Nursing Fund on Thursdays...

Take Care,
Sam
 
Val-I'm not a doctor though, so how much I'd actually be able to help is probably pretty limited....and I dont' know about how much insurance I'll be able to get....we'll see! ITs so sad though to see how people's lives could be SOO Much better if they took care of themselves...like smoking! Come on people!! by now EVERYONE knows how dangerous it is....being overweight also has a HUGE impact on your quality of life...so whats the deal??? And I'm talking to myself here too....I"m trying...but not like I should be..and I know 1st hand the effects weight has on the body...esp. by the time your in a nursing home...you can really tell who took care of themselves and who didn't....anyways, I"ll step off my soapbox now! lol

SB...thanks for stopping by! Are you taking RN then? I'm doing LPN, so I dont' have to take patho....I am taking Nursing fundementals and lab...pharmocology and The role of the LPN...along w/ clinicals at the local nursing home. Today was pretty boring though, you know how the 1st day goes...good luck w/ it! its a WONDERFUL career!! I'm so excited :D I have always had compassion for others so I think its a great fit for me. I have a question.....whats w/ the avatar? the picture you have on your profile is so different that the avatar??
 
oh, and you moms will find this one funny....it gets filed under "I NEVER thought I'd hear that!"

My girls got a pack of balloons today...and I regret it already...but anyways, they were stuffing the balloons up their shirts to make it look like they had boobs, lol....well, at one point my youngest comes up to me and tells me "Mom, can you have Faith take her boobs out so that I can play w/ them?" I almost died laughing!!
 
Hey, ya I'm doing the 2 year RN course here at SLCC. So my lab/clinical day is Monday, then Patho and Pharm on Weds and Nsing Funds on Thurs. It seems a little daunting but I think I can do it. I'm allowed to study as much as I want to at work (hence all this messageboard time :) ).

The avatar thing is crazy. I guess I need to change my profile pic, lol... I think I look pizzed or something. As far as the hair goes I have too many stylist friends and they think I'm a chameleon so we change it up quite a bit. I really like the avi pic and it's probably closest to the "me" now I guess.

I'm so glad that I have someone else on here that in addition to talking weight loss and exercise with I can talk about Nursing school with too :) I'm thinking a career in Nursing will be the one for me. I'm pretty compassionate and I've always enjoyed the medical field.

Yea, its great to have a fellow nursing student to chat with!! I'm sure you'll make a great nurse :D So both the pics are you??? they look like 2 different people, lol And yea, you look totally mad in your profile pic! LOL!!!

OK, i'm gonna sign off for the night and look over my assignments for the weekend! Good night 'all!!
 
Thanks alot Steve :D I appreicate it!

Sorry I've been MIA lately guys....and I'm sorry I've been neglecting your diaries..I WILL get to them as soon as I can! School has taken a tremendous toll on me. ALot more than normal...I wish I knew why. I am just really mentally exhausted. I am so tired, I yell at my kids alot more....It feels like I can't hardly function.....

I'm soooo tired...
 
School taking up your time, good. Yelling at the kids, well, I'm not going to lecture you about that one. :toetap05::toetap05::toetap05:
 
Deep breaths and know that it's you being tired that is causing this, not the kids. Trust me, I know were you are coming from. My kids know when I'm on the midnight shift.

NONE OF THAT!!! :smash: Remember, take care of YOU and YOUR LIFE first--for you and Sam and others who are in nursing school, for goodness sakes, y'all should be STUDYING not messing around on WLF. Besides, you can always just ask us how we're doing instead of reading all our diaries! Here, if you're interested, I'll go:

--I'm enjoying the boyfriend, although the poor thing got food poisoning last night :(
--I decided to quit drinking until Valentine's Day with Alta and Melissa
--I need a battery for my scale but I'm successful with dieting lately, although my deficits are probably only in the 100-300 calorie range, and I plan on changing that
--I bought Burning Man tickets today! :party:
--Life is good!

Ok, hope you get some good sleep, love you! :hug2:
 
wow, thats great that you stopped by for an update! I appreciate that!

Sorry to hear about the BF getting sick!! I hope he feels better soon! I saw your thread about being dry and I'm so happy to hear that! Your improving your health by leaps and bounds! I saw on myspace that you are getting those tickets, but I have no idea who B.M. is, sorry, lol

BTW...I just took a medical term quiz and got an 87% on it....thats ok, not great, but pretty good....tommorrow I have my 1st pharm. test and I really don't feel like I studied as well as I should have...grrr...so, tonight and tommorrow morning, I'm cramming!!
 
Cram away and don't worry about the forum--we'd rather you do well in school than waste your precious time, here--don't get me wrong, we love your presence :grouphug: but school is more important--this is your career!~
 
Hey Korrie! Just poppin in to see how your doing! Looks like your doing great! An 87 is not bad at all. I would take an 87 on anything given the course load I have. I spent most of my first week freaking out and stuff but now I think I'll be alright. Good luck on your Pharm test! I have one of those in a few weeks.

Take Care,
Sam
