Let's Take the Time to Savor this Moment.....

because it will probably be the last time I can say I have all A's this semester! Once my clinical grade is determine, that moment is over. I am hoping for a B, although an A MAY just be possible since my holistic had no corrections on it at all. However, getting your hopes up for an A in clinical is delusional thoughts for a nursing student. Oh, and I guess my process recording wasn't my best work this second time around, although it was longer....so that could set me back, too. But I don't care, because I just want to be done!

Otherwise, besides the uncertainty of clinical, I have an A in all of my other classes. As long as my Psych final on Tuesdays goes well, I will keep my A in that class, too! So, it feels good to start the first half of the semester off so well! But Med Surg will start the week after next, and that's a whole different ball game. That class I will be happy just to be able to say I passed. It's supposed to be a tough class, but I am so ready for it. I am missing the hands on stuff, like injections, and researching medical conditions and meds. That is the type of stuff I enjoy doing. I am also really excited for learning IV skills this semester.

In other news, I have been going to the gym for the past week. I have started out doing ok, I have been going for an hour each time. And I feel good about it, in fact I am going to be on my way to the gym here as soon as I finish with this post! I haven't been pushing myself so hard that I get too sore or hurt any muscles, because that is usually what sets me back. I pull a muscle, and then I don't go back to the gym for a week or at all. I am excited for making progress and seeing some pounds fall off.

I am excited for what the summer will bring me! I am most likely not taking any summer classes this year, which is awesome! I haven't had a free summer since we got married almost 3 years ago, so this will be a great treat for me! I will pick up some extra hours at work this summer, but other than that, I can relax, and do fun things with Mike! So far, we have tickets for a couple of Cubs games, an out of town wedding, plans to see Beauty and the Beast the musical, and MAYBE go back up to one of the towns we visited in MI last summer and spend a weekend getting some sun on the beach! Let me add, that I have not owned a swimsuit since I was 11, and have refused to buy one or even go swimming pretty much since then. But something is making me want to say fuck it and lay in the sun and relax. So I actually bought a swim suit in case we end up going this summer.

Now don't expect to see me in a swimsuit all the time, the only reason I am ok with this is because the likelihood of seeing anyone I know or will ever see again in my life in Michigan is very very small. Plus, there weren't a ton of people on the beach when we went last year, so that makes me more comfortable. But I just want to have a nice little relaxing getaway.

So, it may be bad of me, but I am sooooo already in the mindset of summer, the next 8 weeks of school is kind of already over for me, lol.

Alright, this girl is off to the gym!!
