Storms

The snow if fiercely coming down out there and right now reminds me of the what is happening in me. I don't want to be depressed or alone but here I am and it makes me susceptible to being bushwhacked. I know some of the plans God has for me and I just have to depend on Him to fulfill those promises. And I have to keep the door closed to the outside voices that would try to tell me other things.

In Avilla

After a 233 drive in the rain yesterday I arrived at my daughter, Sam's at 7:30 pm and greeted by two very excited granddaughters! We toured the camp today where Brian works and made carmel popcorn balls and had pancakes and bacon this morning. We watched football and took a nap. Tonight I am with the girls and Sam and Brian are on a date. I am reviewing vents for nursing class and food and water stuff. God is good.

Classes

I am starting on week two now that I have been overwhelmed and recovered from week one. Next week we actually start clinicals and that will be another challenge. Slowly I am getting my days in order and this is a never ending process. Feeling lonely tonight so it is time for bed.

Daily thoughts from the highrise

First Day

I made it. First day done. Now I have to go from a nurse to a student. Writing care plans is my challenge and then remembering things and reading questions in the proper order without twisting words around of putting words in that are not there.

Classes

Tomorrow is the first day. Even as an adult that first day of school can be stressful and nerve racking. Good news is I only have to do one day at a time and it will probably go faster than I realize. But for right now I am anxious but it will probably go just fine tomorrow.

Birthday

I finally have my birthday photos! It was such a great time of so many family and friends. It was so good to be together and celebrate my Jubilee! Even some of my co-workers from the hospital made it. The grandkids were big helpers. I loved it. The tattoo was my present from my son, Mike and nobody believed I would do it. Got em!
