So, the summer is over. No more sleeping in until whenever we want. No more working without worrying about homework. No more trips up north. No more starting movies at 11p because there's nothing else to do. Essentially, goodbye Boredom. Hello, nursing school.
The only thing not gone from summer is this heat-107 degrees on Saturday. Gross.
Nursing got off and running last week. We've already got a paper and a test under our belts in less than a week! Preceptorships will begin soon, so I'm praying for a nice and patient preceptor. My request for two oncology preceptorships didn't work out, but I'm on a telemetry floor (cardiac). It won't be boring!
Dan is still waiting for a placement for student teaching and observation. We're praying that it's at a local high school close to La Mirada, since he'll be there every day next semester. His first quarter begins on September 14th...and he'll be off and running, too!
Between 3rd year nursing school and accelerated student teaching, we may not see each other much in the near future. That will just make our time together all the sweeter. It sure will be hard to get used to, though!
On a different note, Dan's grandma Mignon passed away last Wednesday at the age of 87. Her doctor said she only had about a year left to live...23 years ago. Amazingly, she died August 26th, 26 years to the day after her husband died. She will be greatly missed :(
Well, this cannot be a long blog because...I have homework. Ugh.
Good luck to both you and Dan this semester! I'm praying that things go well and smoothly!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about Dan's grandma:( Its amazing that she lived so long after the doctor told her she only had one year left! Amazing!
