170's, god I hope I can get it to stick!!

Hey buddies :) Its been a long time since Ive written out a journal so Its time to catch up!

Graduation is tomorrow. Two long years of nursing school is coming to a close. Its bittersweet thats for sure! Im going to miss the friends that Ive made, and it certainly is going to be wierd not going to class three days a week. Nervous and excited about starting the next chapter.

Ive accepted a job offer from a long term acute care facility. Its a little bit of a drive from here but its the only place that offers experience with a variety of patients. They do a lot of patients on ventilators, traumatic brain injuries etc. It should be an excellent learning experience. They are starting me as an aid until I sit for my licensing exam then Ill be an LPN there. Fingers crossed that this will be the right fit for me.

Ive been crunching hard on weight loss. Probably too hard. Life has just been moving at light speed, so much to stress about. Instead of stress eating im stress not-eating. Im a lady of extremes it seems. We are trying to buy a house too, add that to the pile lol.

Next week Im going on a three night vacation, just the husband and I. It was my graduation gift to myself and it is desperately needed. Hoping I will be able yo put my worries aside and enjoy the break. My husband is good at helping me relax so it should be good.

Hope all is well with my buddies. Please accept my apology for not being on often enough to support you as much as you support me. Every word of encouragement is always so deeply appreciated.

Have a wonderful day :)
