GeoCaching

Yesterday, my youngest son and I went Geocaching around our town. I never realized until I visited the geocaching website how many there were in our area! We found 4 yesterday in about an hour's time. The caches ranged in size from a small film canister (think 35mm size) to a metal ammo bin about the size of a shoe box.

I really enjoyed the one called "Toubled bridge over water". It took us down an abandoned road in the middle of the day. It was beautiful out and we saw hawks/kites flying overhead and numerous birds calling back and forth in the woods. I never thought to take pictures of the areas, but have decided to go back tomorrow and get some. I'm planning on being off from work tomorrow to get ready for Nursing Exam #2. Wish me luck!

Nursing School 2009

I'm somewhere I never thought I would be - in the Associate Degree in Nursing Program at McLennan Community College

I am blessed that the company I work for has allowed me to flex my schedule to attend afternoon and evening classes and clinicals. It's been a long 5 weeks already but I am determined to just take one week, one class at a time. If I worry too much about the next 2 years of classes and clinicals, I'll never finish.

So, in addition to being a single mom of two teenage boys, advancement coordinator for my son's Boy Scout Troop, Volunteer Firefighter/NREMT-I and full time Associate at Mars, Snackfood, US - now, I'm a student Nurse!

I bet my mom and dad are rolling over in their graves! The nature girl that always wanted to be a forest ranger and live in the woods in now becoming a nurse.

Wish me Luck!
