Random Thoughts by Pina

So...one of my guilty pleasures is watching this show called Bothers and Sisters. It has some really great dialogue and the way the family interacts with each other is so realistic. I watched it today and I am mad. ONe of the main characters started cheating on her husband...they just adopted a baby...and she started cheating on her husband. Honestly, I know it is just a tv show...and I shouldnt get so involved...but it made me feel physically sick to my stomach. I am mad!!  That is all I have to say about that... On another note, The Amazing Race is the best show ever...I want to be on it someday!!

So, I am almost done with this semester. To be honest, I dont want it to end. I feel like I am learning tons of useful information and techniques. I really love nursing school. I am looking forward to the summer though so I can have a chance to work. We really want to pay off my car and save some money so Sean wont need to work so much next semester. He will be starting the bilingual teaching credential program and I would love it if he didnt need to work full time like he has been. I want him to get everything he can from this program. I am so proud of him. He works so hard, and has had hardly any time to just relax and hang out with friends. He is amazing. I feel guilty sometimes because i am not working this semester. I am busy with school, but I have more down time than he does...and I feel bad. Hopefully I can find a job as a CNA and work full time over the summer and then 2 days a week during the semester. We will see...I am trusting in God for this...because if I have learned an...

Things are better...thank you Laurie for praying. It is hard to raise a teenager...but God is good...and has grace for us!

Sean and I need your prayers...more info someday...right now just pray for wisdom

I am exhausted... Yesterday was was a very mentally and physically draining day at the hospital. My Patient needed help with everything. I am sore today, my back muscles do not agree with lifting and moving patients. I am tired...but I am so very grateful for my classmates. Whenever I needed help I knew that all I had to do was ask and someone would be right by my side. I love everyone in my class...more and more each day!!

You can tell when I am hormonal when I watch in interview with Bob Barker on the today show and cry my eyes out. To be fair, he was talking about his wife and how if it wasnt for her he wouldnt be where is today. He said that she always supported him, always believed in him, followed him even when the things seemed rocky. She produced all of his shows, and gave him inspiration. I want to be that kind of wife. Not because I want Sean to become a famous game show host, but because I want Sean to know he has my support through everything...He is going to be such a great High School teacher/future dad!

today is my first day of clinicals where I will be caring for a patient without a partner! I am glad...and nervous. I know that I have no reason to be nervous, my fellow students are there to help me, and my teachers. I really have nothing to be nervous about. I just want to be the best nurse I can be and I really want to get as much as I possibly can out of these clinicals. In order to get alot out of them I need to be ready and willing to do any procedures that I hear about. If I hear a nurse talking about inserting a catheter I need to volunteer...I am scared...but I know that God will be there. I have been realizing the presence of God more lately. Not feeling...but realizing; realizing that He is present...it gives me great peace...until someone asks who wants to do a catheter...then I will panic :)
