I am in my last semester on nursing school and will graduate college in 3 months (God willing)...and I think back to when the journey began almost 5 years ago. I wish I would have wrote more about my daily struggles & the things I have overcome in the last 5 years. I have grown & changed a lot...even in the last couple of weeks...so with that being said...my goal is to blog at least every other day about something....so next time I sit here and look back I will have it in writing what was going on in my life...so here it goes.....
Today was another snow day for the kids so that just made my morning more hectic because I still had to go to class. When I went outside I thought how in the world am I going to get to class when my driveway is a solid sheet of ice??? What a way to start the day. Today was going to be a good day though...I have been looking forward to today @ 8:00a.m. all week because Sugarland tickets for the Indy State Fair would go on sale for Sugarpass members (and I am one) So I get the kids off to Nanny & Pa's and I head to school. The roads in my town weren't bad and all & the parkway to school was clear. As I was making my way down my usual route to school the roads were covered. I really figured the roads there would be better than at home because it is a bigger town...anyways they were not. I am not a fan of driving on slick roads, but I did very well today. I went slow & made it safely. When I turned into the parking lot at school it was a solid sheet of ice & I was freeking out. I actually posted this on twitter "Seriously WKU...no delay? The parking lot is a solid sheet of ice! Nice call!" So as I sit in the parking lot I am anxiously waiting for 8 am to arrive so I can order my tickets before heading off to class.
After refreshing for computer for 7 minutes straight...the link was finally available to buy tickets to the Indy show....so I click the button to buy...it then takes me to a screen that has 3 different choices for presale tickets. So I was trying to figure out which tickets I wanted...I just wanted closer then we were last year (21 rows from the stage). There is a GA ticket, a floor seat ticket or a lower bowl ticket. I decide floor seats is what we want so I click on it & it pops up "Row 12 center stage". My heart started beating REALLY fast as I started to get excited...I added the 4 tickets to my cart & hit checkout, but when I did it said the seats were no longer available...WHAT??? Are you kidding me???? I just lost my seats 12 rows from the stage :( So I go back through the whole process again & this time I get seats in "Row 19 center stage"...OK I can live with that...It still trumps our seats from last year. So I add the seats to the cart & checkout, but I didn't get to excited until it said "Order confirmation". So we will be going to see Sugarland again in August. This will be my 3rd time, but also a 2nd annual "Girls Night". I am so excited and have something to look forward to after graduation. So now that I have the tickets taken care of I better head to class.
So class starts and the teachers tells us we will finish up the powerpoint from last week & then we are free to leave. WHAT??? We don't get out of class until 3:45 & are suppose to have another lecture this afternoon that we will be tested over next week! Well, the teacher that was supposed to teach the lecture couldn't make it in today so she has taped it and put it on Blackboard. Ok thats fine but why couldn't someone sent us an email this morning telling us that. I drove 30 miles for 2 hours of lecture that I could have listened to on the computer?!?!?! Oh well, its probably better that I was in class anyway because I have a hard time motivating myself to listen to the lectures at home. Anyway I am off my high horse now. I got to come home and take a nap, so now it is time to listen to lecture.
I will leave you with a few pictures from the last couple of months since I haven't been doing a good job blogging. I hope I can keep my goal of at least every other day so I can look back on the "little things"
A few other things before I go. I have ordered the kids a "special surprise" for Valentine's Day, so stay tuned for the reveal & pictures. Also I went out on a limb last week & got all my hair cut off...it hasn't been this short in 5-6 years but I am "loving" it. Here is a picture I snapped with my phone right after I had it done.
Well thats it for now, but I will be back soon!
