Wow can you believe it!

Just a short little diddy for you...I'll try and keep you entertained over break!!!! My day was a good one!!! I didn't wake up till 11:15 today and I loved it!!! Although i didn't have time to get ready for work. I quickly got ready and ate breakfast (my favorite meal of the day), and then was off for my short little shift...just to learn a few new tricks pretty much.

For those of you that don't know I take care of a 21 year old girl who is developmentally and physically disabled to put it shortly she is about 9mo mentally. She recently had her leg broke so I had to get the low down on how they are taking care of her now...basically we move slower and more careful with that leg. Today she was pretty sleepy she had a seizure during bath time and that pretty much knocks her out the two things together! So long story short i watched t.v. for 2.5 hours! But it was good to see her again! And i'm sure i'll get to spend lots of time with her over break which i'm thrilled for!
After work I had some frozen pizza with my lil brother and then helped my mom paint the bathroom for about a 1/2 an hour and then it was off to work out which felt amazing i hadn't done that since thursday. Then i quickly hurried up and got ready, because Miss Brianna was on her way over!

You know it's a good friend when she'll hug you when your still in your towel and not quite ready to go! Didn't even bat an eye lash gosh i love that girl.


After i was finished getting ready and dressing both of us...she changed her clothes into some of mine...I love that i get to share clothes with her! It's fun! We went to "our" place...Dos Amigos were both suckers for good mexican food! And it was amazing, I may have eaten just a few to many chips though, but what could be better than good food and good friends!!! It was fun to catch up, I'll get to see lots of her over break I HOPE! hehe
After dinner we came back home and then we decided to go say hi to her family but they were gone :( And now i'm home, and really I want to go to bed but I feel it's too early especially since i slept till 11! Oh well!!!!

Where to Begin?

Well it's been a long time...Infact i'm back in MN now but just for Christmas break!!!! Exciting news...I passed semester 3 of nursing. Below are pictures of my fall semester it would take forever to tell you everything i did...so enjoy the pictures with small explanations!!!!This is my clinical group...we had 3, 5 week rotations...we started in womans health (med surge) then went to the Childrens Hospital for a pediatric rotation we were on an adolecent floor which i absolutly loved. We finished up in labor and delivery and postpartum.
Over labor day weekend i went and visited family in Chicago!!! It was fun to get away while school work hadn't piled up yet!!!! I came home for my fall break in Oct. for a wedding we also took some family pictures! Above is just one of many that we took. Below is out to dinner with the family!!!
The first weekend in Nov. I went and visited my friend Mark in Miami it was for sure the best time of year to go...it was tons of fun...we went to the beach, and the marina, and it was just amazing!

For Thanksgiving I went to Chicago and met my family there...I took the Mega bus an interesting experience...very smooth...and cheap! I highly recommend it!
Two of my best girl friends Rachel and Christina!
My Ohio boys over Lukes birthday weekend!
