way too long.

It has been way to long since I've posted anything on here. Gees. So let's play catch up shall we?

Humira seems to be working as well as the Remicade which is fantastic. With each shot, I'm slowly figuring out which areas hurt the most and which hurt the least. I've also discovered if you numb the area with ice for like 15 minutes it doesn't hurt as much either. I still get a headache after but that's tolerable in comparison.

As I shared in a previous post, I worked my first 40 hour week. I guess I spoke too soon because the week after that I got to work 45 hours. The only good thing about it will be this week's paycheck.
Just a thought about the workplace. I'm not so naive to think that everything in life is always fair but when you have the opportunity to treat others fairly, doesn't it make sense to do so? One word, seniority. More about that later but I'll get off my soap box for now.

So I had my orientation for my LAST semester of nursing school on Monday. I'm super pumped about this semester. I'm really looking forward to getting back into the hospital and practicing patient care. Now the lecture portion of the class from 8 - 5...I could probably do without, just saying. Oh man almost forgot...expected graduation date December 15. :) woohoo! Although I'm really nervous about it all I'm very excited to be starting a new chapter of my life. Thanks be to God for His blessings and guidance. I wouldn't have made this far had it not been for Him.

I've got another fantastic quote to share with you.
"Life is about trusting your feelings and taking chances, losing and finding happiness, appreciating the memories and learning from the past."

For once in a long time I beginning to slowly trust my feelings, to listen to my heart and just do what makes me happy. I'm taking a chance on someone who could potentially break my heart. I've lost happiness but you better believe I'm on the path to finding it again. I'm most definitely appreciating the memories I've made, good and bad. And more than ever I am learning from a past that I don't regret.

A righteous man will be remembered forever. He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord. His heart is secure, he will have no fear; in the end he will look in triumph on his foes. Psalm 112:6-8

Get excited =)
