How are you?

Hi Kim, I am good!! Thats always the hardest, back and forth to the hospital!!! Rob's dad lived with us for 6 years, he was 88 and passed in December. The 6 years he was with us was alot alot of hospital time, different ailments etc etc. He was on dialysis 3 times a week for over 3 years, that was a slow torture!!! He had untreatable prostate cancer. Miss him dearly, he became like my dad and one of my closest friends, i helped to care for him the last year of his life. What an amazing man!!!!

Do you have any brothers or sisters?? Can I do anything to help you???

Bout to workout, laundry, clean, food shop fun fun

Talk soon, Pauline

Hang in there!!!

Pauline,

Sorry I did not write back sooner, I was busy with studying.

It was so nice to meet you and the rest of ADP410.

I think you should get all the books, so you will not worry about it later.

The scrubs do not have to any brand- just the right color. Mine are the life uniform brand.try them on they run BIG.

The next couple weeks will fly by.

Enjoy everyday

I hope I did not scare the class too much.

Talk to ya soon

Kim

Hey Kim, No you did not scare, I loved hearing what you had to say:)

I did order all the books, some came today already!!! yippppies!!! others should be here by wed, those are the ones i need for the homework packs.

I started with a large binder, now I use a pocket folder for each subject no binder. So when I need to find my notes for a class or a comp, I can just pull the folder out. I usally like to use dif. colors for classes going on at the same time so I don't get confused. I just pulled out my PVR folder from last March as we are doing PVRII right now. It was a big help just to grab a folder.

I was having problems with the pages pulling out of a binder.

No school today, we got the call last night

I Love day light savings

have a good night gotta study
