Got to mow my lawn

Things have been going better this week, I am no longer working in Ogden, I am back to Salt Lake. Need to get my hours and it wasn't happening in Ogden, Salt Lake has plenty of work for me. I will miss how laid back it is at McKay-Dee, but I gotta quit draining my PTO. Last week was my last clinical day for the semester, YAY, but I had a nasty Pharmacology test. I studied my tail off, did okay on it, came home and did some yard-work since I had the rest of the day off. Well I got an email from one of my teachers the next day asking why I missed a test. Holy crap I missed a freakin test!!!! Sigh, just when things start turning around something like this happens. I feel so retarded for missing something like this. Now all my test days and times are on our main calender in our house, thank you Julie! I just hope and pray that the rest of the tests I take will be really good grades. Going to hopefully take this test today, but will be marked off 10 points per day. There is a saying the God will only challenge you to a point that you can handle. I am soon to call BS on that theory and say that we are challenged at times beyond what we can handle, something about achieving self-actualization and your own potential. Just need to make it 'til tomorrow! I keep telling myself that, seems to be working ;)

Weekly tests and going bald...

Been a few since I have posted anything, heaven forbid neglecting the blog. Life has been crazy busy with not much to show for it. Work has been okay, been hard getting my hours on this schedule. I got the flu three weeks ago, had all signs and symptoms of H1N1 but the instacare no longer tests for it, but they prescibed me Tamiflu. Not sure what to think about this stuff except very expensive and didn't really do anything for me, supposedly it's suppose to make the flu not last as long, but I still missed a week of work. Pretty sure I got it from school, jerks, what are people thinking coming to school and taking tests when sick. Honestly I don't blame whoever it was they threaten you with your life if a test is missed for any reason. My grades in my three classes are very poor, I haven't done well on any test, need to find a way to overcome this. I haven't never before studied or prayed so much in my life, just wish it would pay off with better grades. Tests have been occurring every week, which is a pain, I haven't done any yard work that is very much needed to be done and other household stuff. Tomorrow is my last clinical day, been kinda boring at the long term care center I have been going to. And care plans are the absolute worse time sucker out there. Although I am doing well writing them, they just take a long time to do, so much stinkin info is required with these. With all the stress of everything going on I have yet to go bald, I am very surprised about this.... knock on wood!
