I’ve noticed I haven’t been very talkative lately. I guess things have just been rather busy, or else I’ve been behind on my days and “catching up”.
A lot is going on right now so I shouldn’t be surprised that I’m busy. Let’s list everything for fun…
1) School. Last semester of Nursing School! That alone is enough to stress me out. This one needs subcategories.
a) Attending class two nights a week with occasional weekends
b) Reading/studying material for class (which takes hours)
c) NCLEX questions, questions, and more questions
d) Preceptorship (workload still to be determined)
e) Graduation prep
2) Work. Or should I say a delicate balancing act between working and taking time off to study while still making enough money to pay the bills.
3) Moving. And all the stressors that come with moving (finding a place, packing, physical move, unpacking, money)
4) Health. I’ve always struggled with my weight and now is no different. I’ve joined a gym and I’m trying to add it to the schedule.
5) Relationships. I’m also trying to be a good girlfriend as well as good friend during all this. Now that Will’s schedule is different, it’s harder to spend time with him. But it’s important, so I try to make as much time as I can. Also, I’ve made some really good friends at work and I enjoy their company.
I’m sure I missing something, but that’s enough I think. Please don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. That was not the point of this post. I’m simply clearing my mind. I love my life and those in it.
But now…back to packing…

Yesterday I realized I misdated my blog about 2 weeks ago…and my OCD personality will need to fix all those days to show the correct information. Apparently, I have two Year 2/Day 26. Damn.
But, that will not be today or the next few days. My first big exam this semester is on Thursday and I’ve been trying to study as much as possible. So back at it I go.

Today I did it. I committed to joining the gym. Blah.
I gotta do this thing and get back on track. I have so much stress going on now, I need to watch my health.
First step – check!

Well, today ended up another day of traveling. I decided to go with Will to Chattanooga to visit the family, but I also brought my homework…nursing student life…

It was another beautiful day, but let me get back to studying.

Today we drove to Alabama for a family friend of Will’s wedding. It turned out to be a beautiful day!
The wedding was gorgeous, but this photo was the icing on the cake for me. I love this shot. :)
