[[ Job Status ]]

2008-10-14T14:02:00.001-04:00

Ok so, I haven't started that new job yet. The government is sooooooo slow about stuff!! But I finally got an answer as to why I have no gotten my physical done yet. The physicians on the base only do the physicals one day a week and they are REALLY backlogged. So who even knows when I'm going to be getting that done. Hopefully it won't be for too long. If so, I'm gonna have to get me a temporoary part time job or something, seriously. It's crazy. I'm just so used to working and I'm ready to get back to work again so, we'll see.

[[ I'm Quite Nervous ]]

2008-09-24T16:52:00.001-04:00

Ok so...I just finished faxing the forms I needed to, to the Human Resources department for my new job. I had to answer YES to one of the questions that I did not want to. I am hoping that it does not affect me and cause them to change their mind about me.

I know that this job was ordained by God. That bad thing happened to me at Maryview then 2 days later is when they called and offered me this fantastic job...so it couldn't be anything but God. So I know if this job is truly God's will for me that this question will not affect anything and there will be no problems. But I'm only human and still in the back of my mind I'm nervous about it.

So y'all please pray that there are no problems and that my nerves would calm down....

[[ I Couldn't Ask for Anything More ]]

2008-09-22T16:18:00.000-04:00

Honestly...as the title of this blog entails...right now at this moment in time...I do not think I could ask for anything more in life right now. I have not been able to say that in a very long time. But God is so good and that sentence right there just tops it all off! He is so amazing & I know that He will never fail me. Even if it seems like He is going to at the time, He always has something better coming up ahead of me that I cannot see coming yet.

Recently I was blessed with an awesome job for a doctor's clinical on the Naval Base in Yorktown. I am so very excited about this. I have been very VERY unhappy working at Maryview for quite a long time now. Something happened at work recently that really got me down and it upset me every time I thought about it. But two days later, I got the call from the clinic offering me the job!! I could not believe it. I knew it had to be God. God truly blessed me with this job. It's funny how he works things out. When one opens an even better one opens. So I cannot complain. I'm going to have a wonderful job doing what I love...working for the government...and getting the pay that I deserve with weekends and all holidays off. What more could I want??

Also I want to take the time to tell you that I am truly thankful for my boyfriend, Jeff. Honestly, if I was him...I think I would be tired of me by now but for some reason he has stuck with me and I love him for it. If he's sticking with me through alot of crap that we have both endured just together that's gotta mean something good. After God he makes my life worth living. I always look forward to seeing him or just talking to him every single day because I know that no matter what he will brighten my day despite the mood that I am in. I know for sure that God has some great plans for us and I cannot wait to see what they are.
God is good all the time...all the time, God is good!

[[ Annoying Co-Workers ]]

2008-08-21T20:51:00.002-04:00

"God...I'm going to really need you to help me today not to strangle my co-worker...you know who she is..."

I start this blog entry out with that because well, it is a prayer that I need to start most of my days with sometimes when I know that I'm going to work with "her" (I do not say her name for protection purposes...and I know she won't see this but I'm just not going to mention her name). But seriously...there is this one particular RN at my place of employment whom I am not very fond of at all. I may sound mean but it's the truth...I cannot help how I feel and to tell you the flat out truth...I am NOT the only one. She's just the type that really likes to dictate...is lazy alot of the time...and does not consider the other working around her that they can not always do what she wants right away. Really though...they should have to do what "she wants". That's not what we are at work for. We are at work to give our patients the utmost "excellent" care that we possibly can....to keep them safe and let them know that they are good hands with our nurses.

Today this particular RN...another LPN...and I had a meeting with our Manager and clinical coordinator because this RN had a problem with us. She told our Manager that we had communication problems and we never let her know anything. But we also had to point out to our manger alot of the things that this RN does NOT do...she is very rude...and like to delegate and have things done when she wants them done when she sees that we are extremely busy so we came up with a plan to "improve" these problems which probably will not last very long at all but...we will have to see.

Also...this RN told a flat lie about me about something I did at work yesterday. I corrected her part of the story that was wrong but she INSISTED that I was the one that was wrong...and so of course...our manager believes her and sorta defends her because that's just how they are. So whatever I did not argue a whole lot because I am NOT in trouble. There ain't no reason to make things worse than they are.

Anyways...I'm just sick and tired of being belittle because I am a LPN. Alot of that seems to be going on lately. Maybe not to be directly but in general. Some LPNs can know just as much as a RN does we just both play different roles. Sometimes the reputation some RNs give themselves makes me really not want to be one. I'm still praying on that though to see if God wants me to become one. I still am not sure.

I finally have a day off tomorrow!!!! Yes!!! lol...only one so that I can work the weekend but...it's better than nothing. I am DEFINATELY going to be sleeping and going to the gym at some point. I think I have done enough rambling for the night. So...Adios!

[[ Missing in Action ]]

2008-08-19T19:34:00.002-04:00

Hey! I know...I have been M.I.A. for about almost 4 months now...AGAIN! I'm sorry ya'll. Life has just been so busy & like I always I just sometimes forget that I even have this blog. Anyways....so there has been so much that has happened since I last wrote and let me give you the quickest update that I possibly can without making this entry TOO LONG.

So, as you know I have been working at Maryview for 1 year & 3 months now. Wow! I cannot believe it. Time sure does fly. If you want me to be flat out honest with you...from my point of view things have gotten worse and worse around that place. There are so many new rules set in place everytime you turn around it seems like. It's so bad that a whole lot of employees on our floor have been run off. I work on the South side of the floor but on the North side all they have is 2 of their day time nurses left...and one is getting ready to transfer to the ER and the other promised she was leaving right behind her so...the side of the floor is pretty much screwed. I can bet money on it that most of our employees will be on the side before we know it.

As far as my relationship status goes....remember the guy I told you about in my last entry?? Well...we are still dating!! =] His name is Jeff. We have been dating for 4 months now and it has been so awesome. He is one of the most amazing guys that I have ever met. I do not think that I could ask for anyone better. He can make me laugh even if I'm not in the mood, he loves to workout, he's family oriented, he's CHRISTIAN (big plus to me), and not to mention very very handsome. =] My Dad LOVES him alot...he didn't like his age at first but after getting to know him and NOT judging him like some others in my life seem to do...he has gotten to like him. I can see us last a very long time and at this point I am hoping forever.

Lorrie, here's your picture you asked for...ha ha! Anyways...I will start trying to update more often but I think this will due for now.

God Bless,

Christine

[[ My Apologies ]]

2008-04-16T12:38:00.002-04:00

My apologies to you all...I know I have not blogged here in a LONGGGGGGG time!! I am very sorry. I know your lives have not been the same without reading my blog everyday...I know...I know...lol. So I thought I would stop by finally and leave some kind of blog for you to read.

Updates on me...

This coming up May 1st...it will be a 1 year anniversary for me. It will be my 1 year anniversary of being a nurse!! I cannot believe it. Time flies by way too fast!! I am just finding it so hard to believe that it is going to be a full year already. I've definately learned so much...met many great people....and gotten some great experience throughout this whole period of time. We have recently gone through some changes at my place of employment that are interesting...that I don't believe was thought through enough & they have lost some employees over but...we will just have to wait it out & see how it begins to work out. I've been new job searching & have applied for a few jobs that look promising & plan to apply for more. I was called for an interview at a pediatricians office but had to turn it down because it was in VA Beach...and I didn't realized it....darn it!

As far as my relationship status...I am still a single gal. But last month I met this really great guy at work...who really likes me...and well...I REALLY like him. We just started dating & it has been fun so far. =] This guy is actually quite a bit older than me but...I do not care...he is a good Christian, and so many other qualities that I love...not to mention he's cute. ;-) My ex actually found out about him and has been acting a little jealous around me lately...weird...anyways...I'm just glad to see that I am finally ready to move on.

There really isn't much more to say right now so I will end here. I hope you are happy with this one Lorrie!

God Bless,

Christine

[[ Change #2 ]]

2008-01-28T21:55:00.000-05:00

Ok so...the next change I've decided to make for 2008 is...I'm going to start becoming a more outgoing person. Work has really helped me come out of my shell since I started in May with the many people that I come in contact with each and every day…but then I'll get together with people I know even better than them and I'll act shy and hardly talk. I know that becoming more outgoing will help me in any social situation in the long run.

Because I know that people skills is essential for most jobs these days I think that this change would also be a must from that perspective. Thing is...I'm usually just fine...I can go in a room & talk to a patient or a patients family like it doesn't bother me a bit but...then I'll get with people I've met before and know so much about and clam up (only sometimes, not everytime) which is kinda the wierdest thing I've ever heard of. So...yeah that's about I don't have a whole to say to more about this so...have a great night!

-Christine

[[ #1 Change ]]

2008-01-15T01:05:00.000-05:00

Ok so yes...I know I am up for late but...I'm not really all that tired & I've been reading other peoples blogs...not only on this site but various other sits & it has really gotten me in the mood to blog. So I figured I would blog tonight despite what time it is.

As I promised you last entry...I am going to start out by telling you the number one thing I am going to be changing about myself this year in 2008.

I know my number one priority this year is to really get on the right path with God…get my life focused on him…and being the Christian that I should be because I know I did not do a very good job of that in 2007. I kept getting right with Him and going straight back to the way I was. To be honest with you...so far in 2008 I haven't been doing so great in this area. But every day I pray & ask God to give me the strength to carry on...the desire to ready His word daily...pray & seek His face. I know that is the only way I will accomplish it. I also know that it takes time...little by little...step by step. So I cannot be so down on myself so early in the year.

I know that if I go back to spending time with God again like I should be that everything else will fall into place right behind it and eventually I will be back to where I was with him...and hopefully, surpass that level if that is where God would have me to be in my relationship with Him. I really am excited to see what God has in store for me because I have this feeling that something different is going to happen in me this year and I want to know what that thing is. Only time will tell.

God Bless,

Christine

[[ It's a Brand New Year ]]

2008-01-08T14:37:00.000-05:00

Ok so..I know it's been a while sinc I have updated & I'm sorry. It's been quite a busy past few weeks but it's been going alright. Christmas was nice & New Years was fun. I just cannot believe that it is already the year 2008. Time flies by wayyyy tooooooo fast for me!! In the blink of an eye. I guess that is why we need to all learn to slown down & cherish every moment that we have because we do not know which will be our last.

With it being a brand new year I have a few "new years resolutions" of course. But this is a year that I really do plan on following through with them. These are some things that I am very serious about. There are some things in my life that I want changed & I know will definately make it better. I will not be sharing them all in this entry but I'll be sharing one thing at a time in the next few entries to show how I will be changing them.

It's funny...the other day I saw Josh for the 1st time at church since the day we broke up & it was soooo akward at first. I hugged when I first got there or whatever but I just kinda went away & talked to some other people because that's what he was doing. Then, he was singing on the stage & it was hard for me to look up there...I do not know why. I guess it's kinda a normal feeling that I'm gonna have for right now. But by the end of the night I was fine & we were both talking to each other like it was a normal day. It seems to all be coming together. We've talked on the phone a few times & I dunno we'll just keep on doing what we are doing & it will "hopefully" be back to a normal friendship in not time.

God Bless,

Christine

[[ Broken Up ]]

2007-12-20T10:52:00.000-05:00

Well...so I have some news that I have yet to get on here to share with you. This past Monday night Josh & I broke up. I will not go into the reasoning why but I want to make sure that y'all know. Not either one of us broke up with the other. It was a mutual decision. We have decided to stay friends...neither one of us would have it any other way.

I think it helped that both of were best friends for 1 year & 3 months before we started dating. It may help it to be a little easier to get over (hopefully). Sure...I am hurting right now & it is going to take a while...and definitely will be awkward to be around him in that way for a while but I know it will be ok & everything will turn out alright. Josh is my best friend & I could never imagine my life without him in it.

-Christine

[[ Ahh!! It's December!! ]]

2007-12-09T00:05:00.000-05:00

Yes...I know...I have been a stranger to the blogging world. I am here to apologize for that. It's because of my crazy busy life and there are just times when I do not feel like blogging but I promise I'm going to try to get back to it more frequently.

It's soooo hard for me to believe that it is already December. It feels like just yesterday I was watching the ball drop at the start of 2007...I will be doing it again soon to welcome in 2008. Craziness!! Time flies by sooo fast this day & age. It feels like we just don't get enough of it. It makes you just want to pause it and cherish the special moments that will soon only become a memory.

Update...Josh & I will be dating for a total of 2 months this coming up Wednesday. I cannot believe it. Like I have already said...time flies by so fast. Yes, I am still loving every minute of it. He & I have had some much needed conversation in the last week or so. It has really helped both of us to see how both of us feel about certain issues & situations. I bought this book today titled, "Single Men Are Like Waffles, Single Women Are Like Spaghetti" that he has wanted us both to read. It's a good book so far. I have learned already so much from it & it has given me insight to the reason Josh thinks the way that he thinks & acts the way he acts. He has tried to explain it but I never seemed to understand it. This book is beginning to bring it all to light & it is starting to make alot more sense. Sorry...it takes me a while. Even though I am a brunette...I do have serious "blonde moments" at times (no offense to my blonde friends). But yes, we are doing well and hope to continue on the path we are on with...some adjustments we are making & that it becomes a stronger relationship each & every day.

I got just about all of my Christmas shopping done. I think the only gift that I have left to get is...my dads. I'm not sure what I am going to be getting him this year. I have not begun to decide. It will probably be the usual DVD, CD, or shirt. It never fails. I know that he will be happy with whatever I may give him because it truly is the thought that counts.

Well, I guess that's about it for now. I will be back for more blogging soon I'm sure...gotta a Christmas party at church tomorrow night so...I'll let you know about it.

God Bless,

Christine

[[ A Little More Freedom ]]

2007-11-14T12:10:00.000-05:00

A little more each day I am feeling like my parents are giving more & more freedom to live my life than they used to. Before I even started dating Josh they were so protective over me & I felt like I could do ANYTHING and I was always afraid of making a mistake. But lately...since Josh I have been dating for 1 month now (and it's been awesome I must say)...there are some things that they know and it feels like they are letting me be a little more free to do what I would like that I could before.

I'm praising God for this because this make makes a little bit easier both on Josh & I because Josh was always oh so careful with me concerning my parents becaue he did not want to disrespect them & to get me into any trouble. But it's getting better and better each day & I am so very thankful. I feel like alot of the things that I have gone through to get to this point was totally worth it.

Yes...you did hear me right...Josh and I have been dating for 1 month this past Monday. I cannot believe it. Time has flown by so fast. I can tell you for sure that I have enjoyed every single minute of it. Yes...there are times where I have been worried about things and wondered how in the world he dealt with me but...I guess that's just the way girls are sometimes...emotional....very emotional. So...he always knows the right things to say & he definately knows how to show that he has true feelings for me & that he cares for me. It is then that I realize that he's in this realtionship for as long as the Lord wills...wherever it may lead. I'm excited to see what that is.

Well, that's about it. I'll update ya more soon.

God Bless,

Christine

[[ Wierd Moods ]]

2007-11-10T21:50:00.000-05:00

Ok so I have been in some wierd moods lately. I'm telling you what. I don't know what the world is wrong with me.

Earlier this week I'm up late talking to Josh because something seems to be bothering me...when I finally tell him...it ends up being something I don't need to worry about...and ugh just a few other things not concerning Josh that happened that put me in the wierdest of moods. A few times I've cried and absolutely no clue why...was frustrated and did not know what I was frustrated about which made me ever more frustrated...ugh. I don't know...I know one part of it is I'm just a regular emotional girl...and I think there may be something else that plays a part too. But...hopefully I'll have that straight and my emotions will be back to normal again. Or...is that ever possible with females?? lol.

Anyways...that's really all i had to say. I wanted to let those thoughts out. Hope ya'll are having a great weekend.

God Bless,

Christine

[[ Well... ]]

2007-10-28T21:29:00.000-04:00

Yes, I know...I have not been the best blogger in a while. Life has just been so crazy but yet I am trying to enjoy it the best I can.

I love the fact that I am no longer a single woman. dating one of the most awesome guys on the planet and I couldn't think of anybody else better on this earth that I would want to date right now. He treats me right...makes me feel secure, safe, loved, and so much more. Of course we are still getting to know each other and we are always learning new things about each other...it's been awesome so far. I cannot wait to see what the future holds.

As far as work goes...its going alright. I find myself more and more every day wanting to work in another facility...I've applied to another place and haven't heard anything back yet. With much encouragement from my "man friend" ha ha...I'm going to be calling them tomorrow to confirm that they got my resume' and I guess try to "sell myself" so to speak to see if I can land an interview.

Well, that's about it for now. Oh...btw, my uncle finally graduated from Youth Challenge and is home with us for good!! I am so happy. God has definately turned his life completely around and I cannot wait to see how much He is going to use him for His glory here in the future.

Have a great Sunday night!

[[ A Teaser ]]

2007-10-16T13:38:00.000-04:00

I know I've been a tease with that last entry tell you that i have an update on my guy situations and I do...I really do.

I am no longer a single gal. The guy and I have decided to start dating. I have some of the best feelings lately that I have never had before in my entire life. It was so worth the wait for be friends first and now...I have reeled him and do not intend to let go. He's totally worth it to me.

The reason I have am not saying his name is because of him and that's totally fine with me. That's just the way he is. Some of y'all do know him...some of y'all don't. It's all good. But it will become obvious soon enough and then it won't matter. No more questions will need to be asked.

Well, that's about all there is that needs to be said. Nothing else going that is really all that exciting. Have a great day!

[[ ???? ]]

2007-10-04T12:08:00.000-04:00

I have no idea what to say in this entry to tell you the truth. I mean yes alot of things have been going on since I last updated...but...I don't know where to start.

Work is pretty much the same. Nothing too new there. We have some evaluations thing coming up. They are saying that you usually get some type of raise at this time. So...hopefully that is true and I'll get a bit of a raise.

There has been a new development in my boy situation but I do not want to talk about it on here because of his privacy and mine. But if you think you need to know,,,,,then ask and I may or may not tell you.

That's about it. I know that was boring but nothing really all that interesting has gone lately that I am at liberty to talk about so...have a great day!!

-Christine

[[ Quick Update ]]

2007-09-21T10:52:00.000-04:00

What to say...?? Hmmm...well...busy with work as usual. It's a busy/demanding job all the time. I'm really not completely happy there anymore. I think I am starting realize that I am not really cut out for the hospital. The particular has just put a bad taste in my mouth about nursing in certain aspects. I'm starting to look for new jobs in a Family Practice office or Pediatricians office.

I'm also starting to save up money and set aside so I can start looking for my own place to live because I want to do that so very bad. I'm tired of living in my house. I mean, I love my parents to death, don't get me wrong but there's just a point where you need to spread your wings and fly and that time is soon I hope.

Well, that's about it for now. Hope you all have a blessed Friday!

[[ Daisy Duke ]]

2007-09-14T12:39:00.000-04:00

Introducing a new special someone in my life...Daisy Duke! She is my new puppy. She is about 4 or 5 weeks old now and she is simply precious.

I know the 1st pic is blurry but it's the best I have right now. I'm taking pics of her constantly so there will be plenty more to share.

I've always wanted a dog named Daisy so that's why I picked that for her name and added Duke on the end just to be cute/funny.

She is sooo active and very spunky. I'm still in the process of potty training her because she is not quite getting it yet

but I know that she will soon *coughs* hopefully. :-)

She's simply precious though & is spoiled which is totally my fault. :D She's too cute not to hold. Yes she does sometime sleep with me but sometimes she wakes up every few hours to bite my nose and bother me and I can't stand that so you usually find her sleeping in her cage at night now. She's doing alright with it though...she doesn't like the idea too much though...has her some crying spells for about 10 minutes and drifts right off to sleep.

I took to the park yesterday and everyone was stopping and saying how cute she was and asking her name....her age....and all that sorta stuff. Like I said...she's simply adorable & she get's that from her momma (her human momma) lol.

Well, hope ya'll enjoyed. More to come.

God Bless,

Christine

[[ Rascal Flatts ]]

Believe me I'll be taking plenty of pics to share with ya'll...the best ones that I can anyways. They probably won't be great quality but it'll be ok.

I can't wait!!!!!!

[[ God's Awesome Work ]]

2007-08-28T16:55:00.000-04:00

God is absolutely amazing. Current mood: cheerful
Amazing...awesome...glorious...marvelous...majestic...whatever other words you can come up with to describe God, He's all of them. To sum it all up...he's INDESCRIBABLE.

Why am I giving God so much glory? Not only because He deserves it all the time and not only when He does something. But He has done something wonderful in my life & the life of a friend of mine.

You see, I have this friend that I was in nursing school with. She was quite a bit older than me but we were still friends. She wasn't the greatest influence...cursed...smoked...and such things like that. But I never gave in to any of those things. She never pressure me to either but still...I was exposed to it and of course there was always temptation there in my face. But...I stood my ground and was the Christian example that I was supposed to be. I was questioned several times about things I believed in and stood my ground and she was one that never put me down for any of it.

Well...here's the great part. Some months after we had graduated from nursing school she had e-mailed me and told me all about how she has quit smoking....is going to church...and doesn't curse anymore!!!! I was blown away when I learned all of this. Because knowing her as I did in nursing school....it was just amazing to me & it showed me that God does work miracles & is truly the ONLY one that can do the changing of anybody's heart. I talked to her on the phone today and just talking with here....not hearing her curse every other sentence...and hearing about her going to church...and God providing her with a great job was soooo amazing to me. I was cloud 9 and praising God for all of it.

It gives me great joy to see how her life has done almost a complete 180 since I last saw her. I know for sure that none of this could of been possible without God...and I give him complete credit for it. It shows how awesome and truly wonderful his power is. I also feel satisfied in that fact that I tried so hard not to give into anything during nursing school and that I had some kind of influence on her decisions.

God is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[[ It's Just Life ]]

2007-08-21T12:57:00.000-04:00

What is my reasoning for not updating regularly...?? All I'm gonna say it...It's just life. Seriously...that's all it is. I either just decide to do other things because I do not feel like blogging or I just get busy and have no time to do...that's in all honesty even though I don't really have to explain myself to anybody for this is just a blog. Ha ha! Anywho...

Work has been pretty good. Busy as always. Never a dull moment & I'm always learning something new. I had my 1st experience putting somebody in a body bag & sending them to the morgue. They didn't die on my time...thank God. Because if they had...I think I would of had a harder time with it. My thoughts have not changed on one of the worst parts of nursing...patients family members. They can be a huge pain...I understand if you are concerned about your family member but don't be in a pain in the butt about little petty stuff that doesn't matter at the moment. Ugh! I've dealt with that alot in these past few weeks.

Some ask me, "So, do you still like your job?". I tell them that Yes...I love being a nurse. It's such a rewarding profession and I would not trade it for anything else in the world...but where I'm working at right now...I don't like it as much as I used to. But it is something that I am OK and can deal with right now. I need to get my experience in so that I can get other jobs that I can be qualified for...so...it's all good. Nursing is definitely what I am meant to do with my life though. That is for sure.

I am quite excited to announce that I am going to the Rascal Flatts concert on September 7th!!!! I am sooooo excited!!!! Jason Aldean will be coming with them. It's going to be an awesome show!! I absolutely love Rascal Flatts. They sings some great songs with some great meanings...so I'm very happy about it. We have lawn tickets but so what....I'm just happy about being able to go...that's all that matters to me.

Well, that's about it. Got some cleaning to do on my day off. Ye-haw!

God bless you all.

[[ A Good Day Off ]]

2007-08-09T23:10:00.000-04:00

I just wanted to let you all know that I had a really good day today. First off...it was because I was off and did not have to work. Ha ha.

2nd of all...I spent the day with one of my great friends Jessica. =] Kinda like a girls day. I think I really needed it. Got my nails done...Jess a pedicure.Ate lunch at Subway...saw Savannah workin' hard. ;-) Thanks Savannah!

Mall for some shopping. Bought cute clothes & new scrub top for work.

Was goin' swimmin at the uncles house but starting rainin so...went to movies. Ate Coldstone Icecream...I had "For Coffee Lovers Only" and then we saw "Now I Pronounce You Chuck & Larry".

Not sure was I think of the movie. Does have some funny parts but of course with what the movie is about...had alot of sexual undertones and such so...I love Kevin James though....that dude is a nut!

Well my bed is callin' my name.

Good nyte,

Christine

Ok so I haven't update in a while and I'm sorry about that. Life has just been so busy and I just keep forgetting to take the time to come on here and update.

So my friend...that guy that I've talked about that I like. Right now we have just decided to play it cool and only be friends for now. We do not want to rush into any type of relationship and either one of us being hurt and he doesn't want to be pressured into dating me because there are those who are....and I do not want him feeling like that. I mean I'm not completely happy but I am cool with it and so glad that we are staying best friends. Because he is one of the best people I have ever met...besides he knows too much. Ha ha.

Other than that...life has been pretty good. Works been busy of course but...what else is new in the nursing profession?

Have a great Thursday!

[[ Changes]]

Wow. It's seriously been a while since I last update. I'm sorry everyone my life has been crazy busy or I just keep forgetting that I have the blog sometimes but anyways...

Lately I have gotten through several changes in my life...nothing like a change in location...or anything like that. What I mean is change in points of view on some things...and a change in my attitude and the way I have been acting towards a certain situation in my life. I kinda have a problem worrying too much about little things...especially the end product of something. The other person involved was the one that pointed it out to me...and it's true I really do. I've decided to change my ways in this situation...not to worry sooo much....to go with the flow...and deal with things as they come because...you definitely cannot rush life. We gotta do it all in God's timing and that is the only way it's going to turn out perfect.

Well, I guess that's about it...I mainly use this blog for letting my thoughts & feelings out now...not really to talk about every day life even though I will lol. But there is just nothing interesting to say at this point.

Happy Monday!

[[ Life ]]

2007-07-05T15:04:00.000-04:00

I've been going through a rough patch in my life these past few weeks...and well...it's gotten alot better than it was I must say. I don't really think I need to go into too much detail. But...my parents & I had a huge discussion Tuesday night & we have come to more of an understanding on some issues that we weren't in agreement over.

But everything is much better now & hopefully our relationships will get better & become stronger. There are alot of other changes that may be occurring that I'm not sure I'm ready for yet. But I do have the green light to date the guy that I am interested in so...we'll see what happens with that. He is aware that the ball is in his court now and he has to make it happen.

That's pretty much it. Nothing really new going on. My 4th of July was pretty good. I was supposed to work but they called & gave me the day off...then...called me at 1:00 and asked if I'd come in and work from 3-7. So I did and was still able to watch some fireworks with family...so it wasn't so bad I guess. At least I got paid for those 5 hours that I worked. lol.

Hope y'all have a great Thursday!!

God Bless,

Christine
