Back into the swing of things

I wish I was referring to a real swing and I could swing things in it. but really I am starting to study again. I had a great habit and was studying a lot! I took a week off after I didn't pass my PCCN then today was the day to start back up again. It is hard! Partially because the stuff I started with I feel I know pretty well (but it makes up about 38%) so I still am gonna study it. I wanted to clean my kitchen instead of study, that is pretty bad! haha, I prob studied for an hour then Paul came home for lunch and that is when I called it quits. I do work today 3 to 11:30. 

Today is a beautiful day! chilly but wonderful. I attacked my side yard on Monday, it resembled a jungle in the amazon... (I wish haha) no the grass was about to my hips and pretty thick. Paul mows the lawn over there but this was in the garden area, so I pulled out all the grass and pulled up about 3 or 4 weeds that were like 6 ft tall! haha so I planted bulbs, a butterfly bush, some seedum, and mulched about 65%of the area, it looks so much better. I need to plant the rest of the bulbs this week. 

I am thankful for where I am in life, for all I have. For my amazing friends, for my family, for good health. For my amazing husband, who is truly my best friend. For who God is in me, even though I am a slacker. For a house, yard, beautiful weather. I have so much when some people have nothing. I hope that I never hesitate to help someone out, even if it is inconvenient. I love music. 

Work has been interesting lately. I feel good about my job, and the job I do. There are so many frustrating things that truly bother me. so many inconsistancies, whether it be false promises, or things that are unrealistic. I do my best with what is given to me, or even when so much is lacking, like staff, or materials, or even resources. I do really love the majority of people I work with and that is what makes where I work a better place. I can laugh when I should be crying from stress, and I feel that I have help, and encouragement, and just some really fantastic nurses!!! I hope our efforts are seen, because we truly work so very hard. 

Well I have dragged on and avoided studying for another half hour, now to shower and get ready for work. sure hope it is a good night to be working......
