See ya Later, Alligator!

OMG, after my nursing school orientation this past weekend I am scared out of my mind!!! If that was their intention, then they did a fantastic job. One of the current students was saying something to the effect of maybe getting to bed by 2am every night after all the reading and studying. I can't do that! I'm 30-something years old! And she doesn't have a child, spouse, cat ,dog OR a house to look after!

Classes start tomorrow and I don't know when you're going to hear from me again. I guess this is where I admit to myself that I'm gonna have to let some things slide for a bit. I think this blog falls under that category. So, for everyone that's going to have a birthday over the next 16 months (and if my calculations are correct, that should be everyone) ..... HAPPY BIRTHDAY! To everyone that is getting married, having a baby, starting a new job, or any other amazing milestone in your life in the next 1 1/2 years ..... CONGRATS! And if anything bad is happening in your life and you need someone to listen to you or to vent to then give me a call around 2am. Sounds like I'll be up.


I'll leave you with a few pics from the summer. The first 4 are from the Great Urban Race that I did with Patty back in the beginning of August. We had a blast, completed all our tasks and came in in the top 50% of over 500 groups. Next year .... NUMBER ONE! The picture of Char on the see-saw is from our weekend with Kari, Teddy and Isabella in June. Doesn't she look like such a little girl there? She's not my baby anymore (Oh, who am I kidding ... I put that one in there cuz of the cleavage shot). And the last pic is from this past weekend where Char spent some time with her Yia-Yia and Papa (my parents). As always, she had a wonderful time, and Brian and I got the chance to get things in order here before our lives change big-time.

But then again who knows .... maybe they're blowing it out of proportion and I'll have plenty of time to post on the blog. However, I do have 7 chapters to read for tomorrow and class hasn't even started yet. Guess I should get on that!
