WHINE!!!!!!!!!!

endless

mindnumbing

Oh wait, I had a week ago Sunday off to cram for an exam all day with the kids fighting.

three weeks left (of school 'til graduation, of my poorly staff hell job)

Saturday's free (except for the two Little League games which I will be sitting on my ass instead of umping, running the snack stand, or any such shit). Oh wait, it's my mom's birthday too.

I'm fucking pooped. I just want to be SarahBelle, RN already. I've crammed 20 years of life in the last 4. :banghead:

5. I just slept 8 hours.
But now I have to go take care of 4-5 hospitalized heart failure patients. My last week of clinical.

7. Hang in there, darlin'!
All your hard work and all the life you've crammed into the last few years are going to pay off in a big way for you and your family shortly....and they are an inspiration to late-bloomers like me who are just re-discovering life themselves. And who - in the same three weeks time it will take you to reach that coveted graduation date - will be starting their very first semester along the same path you've taken!

I'm glad you are here and think you are incredible. Good luck the next few weeks - I know you can do it!

:hug:

8. I "heard through the grapevine" you're doing the same thing yourself.
It's tough, but you can do it. It's like bootcamp though. Don't let them break you. The "rewards" (both fiscal and otherwise) are worth it. I start my new job as a nurse on June 11th. :D

If you need anything, let me know. :hi:

14. But you're not.
And yes, I realize it's hard for a reason. Probably more so than someone just hears things through others. Don't step into threads just to be condescending. It's tedious to everyone at this point.

:silly:??? :wtf:

16. Want any cheese with your whine?
:nopity:

just kidding.

Hang in there - the finish line is in sight. Hopefully after this is all over, you can look back and say it was all worth it.

Good luck.

29. I think we should have your hubby
get a Super Woman cape for you or something similar!

But, I can be sympathetic towards being super-busy, as I had a period like that in my life several years back. But, that is a long story for another time.

18. You have the oddest conversations when you're delirious from lack of sleep.
:D

Hang in there, sweetheart. You bring meaning to my life. You're the inspiration. :P

Love you!

32. You have three jobs if I remember, right?
So I know you know. :hi:

As much as I'm whining this week, I'm already looking into Master's programs in my field. I'm just ready for that next step now.
