> Playing catch-up
> A few things going on with me lately:- Didn't do too hot on my second exam
- Passed my three skills checkoffs last Thursday (IM injection, IV bag and tubing change, urinary catheter insertion)
- Finished a few projects for school (nursing process revisions, cultural diversity report)
- Finished my sister's t-shirt quilt for her graduation (finally...)
- Finished my sister's picture slideshow for her graduation (what a job!)
- Scheduled a haircut for Saturday (badly needed!)
> This weekend is my sister's high school graduation! We've been doing little things to get ready for quite some time, but the week has finally arrived. Our house smells like a giant beef roast, because we've been roasting meat in the crock pot every day for the last month. Mom has also been systematically cleaning our entire house. We have a new shower curtain, an organized computer room, patched walls, shampooed carpets, and pictures in frames and albums. We also painted our two bedrooms upstairs about a month ago. Just today I finished my sister's t-shirt quilt that I have been working on since this winter, and I also have my sister's slideshow in-hand. Both were a big time investment, but well worth it. Tomorrow and Thursday I have class, and then I will be preparing for my brother and his family to come up for the graduation, and they will be bringing their four children. Let's just say that our house will be a beehive of activity all weekend long; I just hope everyone will have a half-comfortable place to sleep!
> Pictures to follow when the chaos dies down!

Hi, I was looking through the blogring members and I found someone my age & who started nursing school the same time as I did. I know it's kind of random but I thought it was cool. Well, enjoyed reading your entries. Have a good one.

I hope you enjoy the weekend! I think I might stop by for some of that meat - you describing it is making my mouth water! lol.
Dont worry about the second exam. There is nothing you can do to change that one. Just focus on the next one. That way you can do so awesome that the 2nd exam doesnt even matter anymore!!
@Bumhee - Thanks for stopping by and commenting! I love finding other people who are in nursing school, too.
Have a great day!
@der_lila_Stern - Dude... with the amount of meat we have, we could feed a small country! :)
I will try not to worry about the past exam. In retrospect it's really not that bad, but I just hate it when stuff doesn't click with me! Anyway, I am going to concentrate on kicking the next one's butt!
It's so nice that your sister's graduation is such a big deal for your family! When I graduated high school I got a pat on the back and that was about it haha.
@trickery19 - That stinks! I'm not sure how it came about, but high school graduations are a pretty big occasion around here.
