taking a break

today has been a lazy day. I have done absolutely nothing and I loved every minute of it! Having most of the week off from school has done wonders for my anxiety level..lol. The kids are driving me insane but what else is new. Peyton is the littlest one (3) and he decided to submerge 2 rolls of toilet paper in toilet water..ughh..and then he threw it all around my bathroom. I hated cleaning that one up. Just another day in the life of mommyhood.
I did get some studying in for my Hesi though. I have been taking the quizzes that came along with my hesi book. I didn't do very well and that scares me. Some of those questions had nothing to do with anything we have learned in class..I wonder if it will be like that when I take the actual exam. I hope not. I don't want to be tested over things not previously studied.
Anyways, Desiree (my oldest who is 9) is selling cookie dough to raise money for her cheerleadingsuit and cheer camp tuition. I have mixed feelings on this. I hate to solicit people for money in this economy but I like that she gets 6.00 for each tub that she sells. That means less out of pocket for me which being a nursing student/single mom means a LOT!
Well, I am going to study some more nclex questions. Goodnite

working on the layout

As a nursing student about to take the mid-curricular Hesi, you would think that I would be studying instead of playing around with this blog. It took me forever to get a decent background. It is now 3am and I could have spent my time more wisely, but I didn't. Good night

Starting this blog

Hello and welcome to my blog. This is something totally out of the ordinary for me to do since I am not fond of writing...I actually dislike it, but I thought what the heck. Here it goes.
I am just finishing up my 1st year of nursing school and I can't believe how time has passed. One more year to go!! WhooHoo!! Well, my excitement is a little premature since I have yet to take and pass the Hesi Mid-curricular. That is coming up on May 7. If we pass the first time, we don't have to take the final. I hope I do but I just don't feel like I am prepared. I have done well all year but this is different. I will keep you posted on this and if you have any advice, comment me please.
Also, if anybody wants to ask me anything I will be happy to answer back.
I don't know just yet how often I will post to this blog, so keep checkin.
Until next time, G
