Another Day, NOT Another Dollar!

I haven't been up to much lately.. I haven't been working at all. I FINALLY go back to work 1 day this week (Saturday).. When I'm off of work, I love it.. I don't miss it at all and I don't think about wanting to be there or see anyone there! However, my bank account is extremely depleted of money and I worry constantly about how to pay the bills. Sure, Kyle makes money and pays for mostly everything.. The tiny amount of money I make at work doesn't help really at all, but it might pay for gas or something.. So I really should be working more.
Somehow I feel "entitled" to be off work while I'm on break from school. I hate working at Dickson. I hate it.. That's my real feeling. But at the same time, I LOVE the people there! I love Sherry - my boss and main administrator/receptionist. I love Melanie, my fellow co-worker and administrator assistant/receptionist/marketing. I've grown to really love these two people and all they have done for more. They are so understanding and gracious! Sherry and Mel are mother and daughter.
Other than those 2 - there are soo many agents that are so friendly, generous, kind and really like me working at Dickson. They tell me "Please don't leave us!" and other really nice things. It makes me feel good to know everyone there appreciates me and recognizes that I am good at what I do......... BUT...
I hate it. I hate reception. I hate computer work. I hate being BORED!! I can honestly say I am good at my current job and could almost do it in my sleep! That also means its sooo boring!!!
I love nursing. I love and hate the challenge it brings. I love the new adventures and all the awesome things I am learning. Sometimes I truly despise the challenge and fear it brings, but that's part of the learning and not being bored process... So overall, I LOVE it!
I can't wait to graduate, get a job as a RN and not do reception work anymore...
I can say that it almost tears me in 2... I will really really miss Dickson and all the PEOPLE, I will NOT miss the job.. But I am really looking forward to my new CAREER instead of just a job that I'm good at.

Thankful

It's officially 1/1/11!! Happy New Year!

I am so thankful for all that I have in my life. I have a lot to be thankful for and I admit that I sometimes take it for granted and don't appreciate things as much as I should.
I am thankful for my wonderful, supportive, handsome husband who has been there for me no matter what happens! We have been through a lot in 5 years and he has never let me down. He's there for me through think and thin and always makes me smile and laugh! It has been a really hard 3 years trying to get through nursing school.. I haven't been the wife I should be or be there for Kyle as much as I know he needs. I truly appreciate his sacrifice and support through one of the hardest things I have done. I love him forever & always :)

I am also thankful for the best kitty in the world, Rascal! She always puts a smile on my face and makes me so happy when I come home! I just love her to death!

I am thankful for my wonderful mother, my entire family, Kyle's family, all my closest and dearest friends - Jenna, Nicholas, Tanner, Jay & Teresa, ALL of my nursing school "family" who have journeyed a rough road with me.. I couldn't have made it this far without them, or continue nursing school without them!

I am thankful for a beautiful house that I definitely take for granted! I hate how far away with live and where we live, but I am so thankful I get to have a roof over my head and stay warm at night in a really nice house!

I am thankful to be able to live comfortably - We may not have a lot of money, but we are definitely more fortunate than a lot of people! We are able to eat daily, live in a great house, drive cars, have jobs, be able to go to school and mostly afford the things we desire.

I am thankful to just be alive! I have working legs, a healthy (somewhat!) body, and I take that for granted. I get to see a lot of sick people in nursing, but it has taught me to appreciate my health a little bit more.. Anyone can become sick at any moment, but I have fortunate throughout my life for my health!

I have SO much to be thankful for and today I truly appreciate everything..
