Intro

With just about month left before my life is consumed by nursing school, I am taking this time to enjoy my almost lack of responsibility. Low stress, 4 day weekends, my last prerequisite that hasn’t become too overwhelming.  I’m taking full advantage of weekends with my wonderful wife.  Visiting with friends and family.  Cooking and baking.  Painting.  Home improvements.  Planting flowers and soon to be planting a garden.  Staying up late, not studying.   And finally, lounging on the couch watching t.v.  I know all too soon I’m going to be longing for these days and free time.

I’ve decided to start this blog to keep track of my experience through this program.  It will be an outlet for me to vent about frustrations and stress.  It will also be a way to share my journey with you, my family and friends.  Hopefully I will find this helpful and something interesting to look back on once I am finished. 

Here I sit, nerves already in full force, one month before I start an accelerated nursing program.  15 months from now I will be able to sign my name followed by two simple, but very important letters.  R.N.
