i remember waiting impatiently to get orders from acot...ok so it only took a couple days but it was a long couple of days none-the-less. anywho, 1st the UPS guy walks up my driveway today (hot btw) and i'm like all excited and run down to get what i know is a book from barnes and noble to help with school. totally geeked out.Then later this afternoon I opened the door and here sat another package with 2 more books in it, and while I was totally geeking out over my new treasures like a kid with a new toy, it made me think of how excited i'd be when I received a scrapbooking order and realized it's been a long...long....long...even longer time since i've actually placed an order online or bought anything in person. Then it hits me....I MISS SCRAPBOOKING!!!!! GRADUATION IS ONLY 6 WEEKS AWAY AND THEN THE STATE BOARDS!!!! omgosh, then maybe I can get a job and have a "normal" life again? Oh I have the itch to scrapbook and man do i miss having free time. I can't believe it's almost been 2 1/2 years already in school. holy cow. hold me ...i'm scared! lol

Whoops - I didn't know you were supposed to scrap with what you bought! I've bought in to the theory that the one with the most wins!

Six more weeks - wow! Hang in there - you will be glad that you did. Nursing is a great profession, it is one area where there are still jobs available, although not in every town.
Deanna - good luck with your RN boards too!
