Protesting!!

Okay I have to admit I've been a little upset. No one but Emily has commented me in some time. I didn't think it bothered me until I had seen some other comments from people that I comment to and they haven't commented me back.

Why does this bother me? I have no idea. It must be that I don't feel like I have made a connection with my church family here like I did in FW. I miss you guys.

Week off and First week of work!

Well grades are in and I earned all B's. YEA!!!! I worked hard to get those B's.

I start school back up on Monday the 5th. I get to go downtown to the big complex that takes up two square blocks. Harper Hospital is a very nice and large hospital.

I started work on Tuesday. I started out sicker than sick. I was running a temp on Monday and had the chills throught the night but I got up and went to work. Wednesday was a little better but I was still sick. Today I woke up with no voice. This is not the way I wanted to start a new job but what else was I going to do. I can't call in because I just started.

On that note they have just been training me on their computer system so that has been helpful. I am enjoying the new setting of being an employee not just a student.

Lee has been a big help with the kids and letting me go to bed early so I can try to get rest and get better. Which at this point doesn't seem to be helping. I am on a antibiotic so hopefully that will kick in soon.

Outside fun!!!




We have this problem... Kenny loves it outside. Which really isn't an issue unless you are in finals week and you need to study and your child screams until you take him outside. He could stay out all day if you let him.

Lee has a big project that I am typing for him and I have a paper that is due on Wednesday that I haven't even started. Along with our study time for finals. The poor little guy just doesn't understand that he needs to just play inside until we need a break and then he can go outside. Lee is going to have his hands full this summer. We need to take stock in some sunblock because my little guy is a little fair skined and already has a little sun burn.

Rachele's outfit is courtisy of Aunt Beth...they are her swim suit wraps. Kenny is sporting his new Tigers outfit even though the Tigers are not doing so hot this year...at least the Red wings are...last I heard.

More details on my JOB!

Well as I stated before I start on the 29th. It's a contingent position...which means I really fill in when needed and it fits in my schedule. I most likely will work the weekends or after school. I'm not sure how I'm going to work work into my busy schedule this semester but I will. I have school four days a week again...1 day of review and three days of clinical. But at least I have 8 hour shifts instead of 12 hour shifts. I think I will only work a few days...Friday and Saturday until I get use to it. I am so greatful for all the comments...thanks guys.

The end is near!!!

Well I only have 3 days of clinical left and 6 days of class left of this semester. Thats not counting the two days for review and taking the final for clinical. So I have 11 days total to go. Then I get a week off and back at it again for one last semester. I turned in my paperwork for graduation...I'll have a total of 114 credits when its all said and done. So I have decided that I will attempt to get my Bacholars degree. I am going to wait until I get all of my board exams done before starting school again, but it will happen. Am I crazy? No becuase in the long run it will help.


I heard from the lady at the hospital I applied at and so far it's looking good. I have to wait until human resources calls me for the final word but I'm praying and I have a good feeling.

Well I have to go change a sticky diaper....what fun.

Back from a mini vacation!!

Well I went to Grand Rapids for a conference for school. No kids or hubby. It was fun in some way but I missed the kids and Lee. We (me and classmates) went because we competed in a compition for respiratory therapists...The Sputum Bowl. Its like Jeporady but all respiratory related. Well we made it to the 5th round and we lost the match so we were done. We went 3-2 for the game...not bad. We might have won had the other team not been a few seconds quicker on the buzzer. We can't live in the past and we had fun so oh well. All is well on the home front and I have a long day of school ahead of me because we missed class on Monday and we need to make it up. So I'm signing off.
