I keep blogging by weeks of school!
This week I figured out that I feel a lot better when I'm all caught up on studying. It's worth the extra hours of study, it's worth the fewer hours of sleep. I'm not really caught up yet, but where I've gotten so far feels pretty good.
I haven't printed out my wall calendar yet! I know there are exams coming up fairly soon but I'm not sure exactly when. That's going to be fixed this afternoon. I have a regular, every-day events calendar up, so it hasn't been a priority.
Also on the priority list: laundry. I actually have laundry in the laundry bag that I still haven't folded from last week, but I'm out of clothes! We vary on who does the laundry. Whoever gets around to it, mostly.
It really comes down to priorities and relaxing. There are some things that just aren't important, and you can't get away with no relaxation/sleep. So yeah, there are a few dishes in a stack at the moment, and there are toys all over the floor in the living room. But the baby is asleep and I'm going to work on homework so we can play together and go do laundry when she gets up.
Someday life will be more relaxed. Maybe :)
Glad you enjoyed stumbling upon my blog - likewise! Seems like you are enjoying nursing school despite the difficulties and stresses it brings. As you do more clinical work, I can tell you that things will get tougher, but the reward is even greater. I admire those who are in my class and already have kids to deal with, so kudos to you!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have your priorities straight. Hope all stays manageable! AK
