That was the date of my last entry. This may give you an idea of how this semester has gone. Ca-razy busy. I cannot believe it is April 2nd already. Only three weeks of classtime left, four weeks of school if you include finals and last clinical days and I will have year one under my belt. It has been the most stressful year of my life.
So much has happened in the past few months including a decision for Allen to move to Maui this summer to take a great job. While this will be great in the long term, it will be really hard over the next year. I am going to spend the summer with him (while I do summer school, yay. At least it's Maui...). And then I am going to Africa for 2 weeks for the culmination of my environmental health class. When I come back from Africa I will have exactly 2 weeks and school will start up again. It will be 5 months before I get to see my dear husband again. It has been 6 years since we were last apart this long and I am not relishing it. At least I will have school to keep me busy.
And keep me busy it does. I try and take at least one day a week and just do nothing, but I pay dearly for that one day. If I don't take it however, I quickly become a crispy burnt out nursing student. What am I saying. I am a crispy burnt out nursing student. This one day just allows me to revive a few brain cells. Yesterday I napped for 5 hours. This was longer than I slept for either of the two nights before.
I am too old for this.
I keep envisioning myself at the beach with a good book and a cold beer. This will help me to make it through the next few weeks.
I hope I make it here before another three months has passed. I make no promises. I will however post pictures from Maui and Africa. They promise to be spectacular :)
<3 you all !
