Resolutions Part III

Dan has his big interview this Mon-Wed at Duquesne!  I am so excited for him and wish I could go and see Pittsburgh.  If he gets the job, I guess I'll see lots of Pittsburgh!  I'll always be a Packer fan, but I said I'd route for the Steelers if it helped get Dan a job :)

As for my other resolutions, things have been going well.  I have continued to stretch and workout until this past week when I hurt my wrist.  I don't know what I did at work, but it has been so painful and it shoots up my arm.  I've still been able to stretch, but it has hindered my yoga and strength training.

The only resolution that is falling by the way side is studying for the CCRN exam.  I haven't even picked up the book because I'm too nervous.  It is a $350 exam that will only be paid for if I pass.  Studying alone will help my nursing, but I'm not sure if I can take the exam.  I need to set aside the next 3 months and work on it.  I am just scared to get in study mode again.

Nothing much is new.  I've been on night shift for the past 3 weeks, so my brain is funky.  I just had 3 days off and have been taking 2 naps per day.  Now I work 3 nights in a row, so we'll see how that goes. 

I'm excited for a Chicago trip that is coming up soon.  I'm meeting my best friend there for a long weekend and I can't wait to just relax and enjoy the town with her!  I will have to see if anything really interesting is happening there Valentine's weekend!

Resolutions Part II

1. I have not begun to start studying for CCRN
2. I have been stretching everyday while getting out of bed and then picking up my cardio workouts besides my yoga routine.  I was concerned about another back injury, so I'm excited to get my core stronger!
3. MY LOANS ARE PAID OFF!!!!
4. I cleaned, but I have a lot more to do!
5. Dan has had interviews and I'm proud to say that he has an on-campus interview that we are thrilled about!

So far, so good!  2011 is great!
