Today was test day as many of your know & I PASSED!!!!!! Thanks for all the prayers!!! WOO HOO....it has been a while since I passed a test this semester! Anyways I was VERY proud because I have put in long hours for the last several days....and it paid off. I now have a 76.8 in the class...which makes my stomach turn REALLY bad. In order to graduate we have to have a 77.0. There is NO longer a rounding rule in the nursing program...which by the way sucks!!! There has only been one semester I have went into finals passing...so I know it is still VERY possible for me to graduate. I just hate that my family & friends are going to be stressed out for the next 5 days. I'm not sure why I do this every semester....but it always seems to work out. One of my nursing peers told me at the begining of the semester I was the "luckiest" person she knew...she said you have pulled yourself out by the skin of your teeth 2 times now...."Either the 3rd time will be a charm or 3 strikes & your out" I am still hoping for the 3rd times a charm. I don't know if my body (especially my heart) could handle going through this again...and I'm not so sure my family or kids could. Lots & lots of prayers for all of us the next few days :)
I woke up with a migraine this morning...which started my day off on a wonderful note. I am not sure what is was caused from....could have been one of many things....withdrawal from Red Bull? stress? not eating right? sleep-deprivation? So after getting the kids out the door & to school I took some medication so I could get through the test.. I was hoping after the medication & test it would subside & I could make it through the day. Well needless to say....it didn't. I have had a major headache ALL day....to the point that it has made me sick at my stomach. I really think it is from stress related to nursing school as evidence by migraine, upset stomach & palpation's.... (wow...did I really just write a nursing diagnosis about my migraine???). YES sometimes I wonder if I may be losing my mind....LOL
Just a quick run down of what all still has to be done in the next 11 days....
12 hours of Practicum tomorrow

Saturday & Sunday all day & all night study sessions
Monday FINALS (oh me)
Monday HESI-which is worth 10% of our grade :(
Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday--8 hours each day of NCLEX review
Friday--retake the HESI Exit exam (we took it for the 1st time today...and I didn't do so well)

I think writing all that & looking at it is going to cause me to have a panic attack....I will NOT know what to do when I can actually have a life again.
