I'm a Slacker!

I've been a bit preoccupied lately.  Between work, class, my body being a fucking weirdo, this blog just hasn't been a huge priority of mine.  Plus, I feel so much more confident as a nurse now, and don't want to share stuff that could be in trouble with the HIPAA police, I just feel less inclined to talk about my life as a nurse.  The only people who would find what I have to talk about interesting are other nurses, or my husband.  The majority of people don't want to hear about how the old man was digging out his own poop from his butt himself, rather than asking for a stool softener.  Or, how high school drama apparently survives even in the nursing home.  Yes, old people are catty bitches, too.  It will never end people, just get used to it.

Chemistry is almost fucking over, thank god!  I only have about a month of it left, and then I'm done!  It really hasn't been that bad, thanks to a teacher who dumbs it down for us quite a bit and explains the equations properly.  I still could really give 2 shins about it, and that affects my motivation to do the homework.  And yes, I have homework to do that I am avoiding now.

Otherwise, work is going well.  School is going well.  Trying to figure out my body? Not so well, but I'm in the safe hands of a specialist, and hope to have more answers soon.  That's all I want to say about that right now.

I have an amazing day off yesterday, up early for a doctor's appointment, but then I got a pedicure and did some shopping.  I was super amazingly productive!  We also had company over, and I learned how to make buttercream frosting from scratch that was amazing.  I made these Oreo Brownies that I found on pinterest, and they were everything I hoped they would be and then some.  Our visit with our company went well, I was worried it would get awkward.  It gives my heart some hope.  Again, that's all I want to say about it.

Right now, I'm just relaxing, and contemplating getting back to crocheting the blanket I started after a friend's baby shower.  I am just enjoying the day of doing nothing.  I'm on a medication right now that is making me dizzy in the morning, and extremely tired.  Like sleeping pill tired.  It's really weird.  So, I need this day of just doing nothing right now!
