New Fall Students: What are you planning to do during these last precious months?


Got any special plans before school starts this fall? I'm working a bunch of OT this summer to bank some extra cash, but the DH and I are going to take a brief vacation to Pennsylvania to visit some of his family before school starts. I'm also planning to use some vacation time before school starts just to take care of some things around the house. We are finishing up a few big house projects, like landscaping and finishing a remodeling job we did for a new bedroom (will be for a nanny once I start clinical rotations). I'm also planning on more frequent outings with the kids this summer, like going to movies and out to the park and even to *gasp* my most dreaded place on earth, Chucky Cheese (that place gives me a huge migraine the minute I walk in the door). What kind of special things are you guys planning?

I plan to spend time with my three boys going to the beach and swimming in our pool. Of course, I have my summer reading all planned (some pre-studying and some nursing fiction!)

The highlight will be a trip to Las Vegas with my Mom and sister

I am taking a trip to New York (leaving tomorrow) to go shopping. Working hard to save money, and reading our required readings for Basics. Also I would like to get my dosage calculations down, but I also want to relax, so I'm not so sure.

Piggy Bank Relax... For Months I Didnt Know The Word Exist
Im married and I told my husband Im taking summer off and I'll return to work for the fall/ I work with the kids so its no problem. Not much shopping but I have plenty of time to regroup and get ready for my 3rd year as a SN!!!! Chucky cheese sounds familar to my kids So I have to grin and bear also. I will also be reading and try to get some workouts in since I joined the gym I need to work out and lead a healthy LIFE...... Have a great summer you guys&GALS

Piggy Bank Things to do before school starts...
Busy working on getting my house ready for "open house" showing in June 5th. Hopefully will have lots of potential buyers come in and make offers. With the current real estate market here in California...I don't think I'll have a problem. Don't have time to work OT due to lots of things to pack around the house for the big move to Ohio this mid July...thank gawd that it's a seller's market where I live right now!!! :hatparty:

Stressing on where to live in suburbs of Ohio near Youngstown State. Relying mainly on real estate agent to send me pics of homes for sale and since I can't go there to shop for a house to buy because of the work I have to do here at home, I'm sending my best buddy to look at the houses that I like and I will basically buy it based on his opinion (Talk about stress!)

When I get to Ohio in Mid July...I'll definitely take the last 2 weeks prior to start of school and do NOTHING!!! :hatparty:
