10-17-2011

Despite last week being particularly challenging. We had a wonderful weekend. Sweet Jeremie Jr. turned 11! Yay! He decided he wanted to go to Salt Lake and have Grandma give him a birthday (THANK YOU GRANDMA). We had another great surprise when we went up. Carla (my Aunt & Uncle), Chris and their boys! And sweet Travis, his wife Stephanie and their DARLING baby boy Gage. Just what my soul needed! We had a lot of fun hanging out with them. We went to the zoo on Saturday for Jeremie's birthday. Haven't been there forever! It really was a lot of fun.

It's sort of fun to have a blog sometimes. Instead of studying for my test I can write dumb things on and on in the middle of the world wide web ;-) ha ha ha. It feels weird to be finished with school. I mean I know I'm not until I finish my comprehensive exam. But I don't have any more papers, no more classes, nothing. CRAZY! I have been looking at my next degree...I have to apply January 15th for my post-masters. But if accepted I won't have to start until next fall. So a nice break. OOh and then I found out the University of Utah has a distance PhD program ;-) super interested in that. Half thinking if I don't get into the post-masters for psych I will apply for the PhD program in Genetics. That fascinates me. Especially in terms of cancer and genetics. So many places to go with that.

Funny huh? I'm incredibly disgusted and frustrated with cancer and absolutely fascinated by it in the next breath, that I want to go into research? Yeah...maybe a good stay in B-Med would be beneficial. Speaking of b-med. I had one of my clients last week tell me that I'm a good psych nurse because I "understand" what it is like. Hmmm...how do I take that? I didn't have the guts to ask what was meant by that. I can only assume ;-)

This week I'm attempting just to focus on each day. I'm not going to dive into anything too major emotionally this week. I wasn't ready last week when I attempted. There is never a moment my sweet Jeremie is not on my mind. Sometimes it is hard not to sound depressing. Breathe in and breathe out. That is what I'm practicing this week. I don't know, its a theory anyway. I'll let you know next week if it works.

Love you all...
