happy, relaxing

Today's really happy spot was the fact that I got to go on a kick butt motorcycle ride this evening :) Riding on one is ss relaxing and enjoyable! It is so wonderful to be able to ride and feel the wind rush around you. it makes me feel free. After the last few days tonight was just what I needed before starting the next few days of hard work and long hours

Yellow Fever

I am happy that I was able to get my Yellow fever shot this morning. Now I have all the shots taken care of for my trip :)

sweets

I am a sucker for sweets and my new favorite treat for the time being are Dove Caramel chocolates. They are so delicious!!

FUN

Today at work it has been just a fun and entertaining day. Thank you Jen and Kayla for our fun conversations!

Today was a very relaxing and sunny day. There were a few things I wish I could have changed but all in all it wasn't too bad.

Breathe

I had a hard time waking up this morning because I couldn't breathe. For those of you that know me you will most likly know what I mean when I say that. So for the first few hours of the morning I had a rough start. Today I am grateful for being able to breathe. This evening I got to spend with some old friends of mine. I was a little nervous that it might be a little awkward and uncomfortable, because me and some of these friends had kind of a falling out a few years ago and we never really have gotten back to being friends. However the night turned out better than I was thinking it would and I was seriously shocked with a few things and things that were said to me.... All in all it was a pretty okay day.

Oh my niece Hannah Lynn turned 1 today. I will have to post some pictures of her eating her cake.

Hello Yummy goodness

Woke up this morning and had a deliciously yummy piece of razzleberry pie for breakfast! what a way to start the day!

weekly

For working so hard every week, I am happy getting paid weekly :)

tootsie

I was happy for a tootsie roll

I am grateful for a good friend that let me vent and passed no judgement on me.

today's good thing

Has been the fact that I am done orientating at work, but that comes with a down side as well...in the fact that it is scary! :) Don't worry today has been good though. It was a little nerve racking coming into work and going to two different floors but it has turned out to be a good day so far...7 hours down, 5 to go. Today when I got to work I wasn't feeling well so I was a little nervous on how I would do and if I would get feeling any better...good news is that I am feeling a ton better and the first 4 hours of my shift went by really fast. I started off on the IMC floor and had only about 4 patients and they were all very nice. I had one sweet little guy that you could barely understand but after a while I started understanding him a little easier and he didn't ever want me to leave his room. When I left to switch floors, this sweet little man told me that he was mad at me because he didn't want me to go and when I left him with his RN I could hear him calling out to me. He really reminded me of my patients that I use to take care of at the assisted living center. I miss my old friends from that place, I still think about them often and wonder who is still there and how they are doing. Isn't it crazy how fast life can change on us?? Anyway When I left my patient I went to the medical floor (which I have never trained on) and so far it has been pretty good. It has been a good night to be my first night by myself :)

grandparents

The last few days I have been able to spend sometime with my Grandpa Stucki, and boy oh boy can I tell you that I just love that man!! He is one amazing man and I am SO lucky to have known him all my life! My grandpa has had some hard trials lately and in all honesty it has been really hard on a lot of us, but I have had a hard time with it and because of that I haven't seen my grandpa as much as I should have; so these last few days have been kind of an emotional ride for me. I love my grandpa with all my heart and it breaks my heart to see him having to go through this hard time. But on the flip side of things I have to gotten to know how much stronger he is and how much I wish I was like him. I need to be stronger like him. He makes it look so easy and he seems to deal with everything that has been thrown his way with ease. I hope one day to find a guy that is as wonderful as my grandpa. Today I am very grateful to get to spent time with my Grandpa. Thanks grandpa for everything that you do, have done and will do for me. I love you!!!
