First Year;First Semester:New Beginning!

I've never really tried this blogging thing...Word of caution:I plan to just dump anything out that I'm thinking at that particular moment from here on out so if you're easily offended then the great thing is, it's my blog and you don't have to read it! :)

I lead a pretty average life, so I can't guarantee just how interesting I can keep this but I need something to help me regroup now and again with my sanity with the hectic life I lead nowadays as a mommy, wife, and nursing student! It's nice to have somewhere I can say whatever my little heart desires.

Let's see... The Hubby and I^ have been married almost 2 years now. Our peanut is going to be 2 this summer. The hubby is graduating this May with his degree for Criminal Justice(so proud!) The peanut is about as independent as they come at that size. Which leaves me...well, looking for what's next for Mommy's life!

With the fantastic support system of family and friends I have, I decided that I'm finally going back and finishing my RN degree. After I finish up my RN, I plan to move on to finishing my BSN and working my way up to finishing a Master's for Nurse Practitioner. Some say I won't ever make it that far but that's okay, I've got lots of time to prove them wrong. I'm a firm believer in the fact that it's never too late to change where you're headed in life! I'll admit, this being my first semester, it's opened my eyes to the challenges that lie ahead. It's interesting to fit in the cooking and the cleaning...and some math homework and some reading time with the peanut...and some more anatomy notes before bedtime at 12 o clock at night! Exhibit A: messy living room that just has to go untouched for awhile^. If you know me, you'll know my anal'ness and how that little mess right there drives me insane! It will all be worth it though, I really believe that. The hubby and I, we've got big goals so I have a feeling this is just the start for me.

We keep ourselves motivated with quotes we both like hanging up on our cork board. Since you can't see them, I think I'll finish with one and maybe help inspire someone else! This is one of my favorites(and the first time I heard it was on One Tree Hill..who knew television drama could be so inspirational!)

  1. :) Great job! You can totally do it and it will all be so worth it. Here is a fav quote of mine

    "What would you do if you weren't afraid?"

    I forget who it is by, but I love it because way too often I let fear rule my decisions.

    Good luck!
