In an effort to prolong the inevitable huge pharmacology project that is due tomorrow, I found myself staring at a blog long forgotten. You know how it is when procrastination hits... You find two sources that look good enough and then go to facebook, then one more source and you have done enough to give yourself a small break or at least that's how it is with me, especially after working three night shifts in a row. That last fact, in itself, equals zero motivation. So, here I sit looking back at the past few months of no blogging and realizing how much has changed. It's a ton. Where to even start...
The main reason blogging slowed was due to a certain boy that stepped into my life, Shaun Johnson. Well, really "Scrambled" his way into my life after beating me terribly at every single round of that game. I still don't think that I have won yet... That's sad... We began talking on there, it moved to facebook, to the phone and to in-person. Ever since it moved to the in-person part we have been inseparable except for one week that I went to Lake Powell with the fam. He is seriously the best boyfriend I could ever ask for and I always wondered if it would happen. God answers prayers ten times more and possibly a thousand times more than you could ever ask for. Remember all those posts about waiting that I blogged? Well, I waited... very impatiently might I add and it was totally worth every single minute of the wait. Sigh... God is amazing. Aspects that only crossed my mind as "that would be nice"are what he has. For example, he's Canadian, draws amazingly/designs houses/builds, is a country boy (not redneck mind you, but sophisticated country ;-) ), loves being in the middle of nowhere, is a little bit crazy, is going to be a nurse, the list seriously could go on for pages. I like him.
Another change is that I got a new job and am now leaving that one after deciding that I want to do something different with my life. ICU is great but the days and no weekend shifts trumps the ICU, so the OR at Erlanger has found itself a new nurse.
I am also living on my own... Who would have thought that Alex Mayes would ever move out of the house and live on her own. Um... not me but it finally happened and with it has come a constant stress of where money will come from and what to eat for the next meal. The past week this is what my meals at home have consisted of; oatmeal, fruit, tomatoes, cream puffs and italian ice. This is now down to just oatmeal and tomatoes. You ask why I don't go buy any? Well, the blessed event of shopping will occur Friday, payday.
Ok, but now that I have procrastinated long enough there has to be some work accomplished or I will be failing a class and losing a ton of money. So until next time!
