Studied and Tested Out

I have had three tests in the last two days. One test on Monday, and two today. My brain is saturated with information on patient assessment, drug overdose, poisoning, bug bites, snake bites, and how that all relates to respiratory. I have been studying until I go to bed then waking up to start it all over again. I get out of bed, put my glasses on, wait for my eyes to focus and start reading. This morning I took a blanket and sat outside on the patio just to feel alive. I felt the cool breeze blowing on me, and I thought to myself how much I miss "life". I only have two semesters to go - I'll be done in August. I can't wait. Until then you can find me with my face in a book.
I'm cheating this weekend though. I'm going to Pocatello to see my grand girls. I won't be totally free - I'll be taking my school books, and laptop. I have a final on Tuesday.

I can relate to the feeling of "missing life" from when I was in Nursing School. We took our children to a reunion with my girlfriends from Jr. High at a cabin in the mountains when I was in school. When everyone went hiking or fishing I was stuck inside studying. Hang in there. I never felt better about myself then I did on graduation day.
