Class of 2006

manna, BSN, RN · Aug 28, 2003

I'm unbearably tired today.. thank goodness I don't have a class.

I felt flu-ish last night, and wanted to go straight to bed once I got off work, but my stupid husband decided to go to a friend's house out of town to watch a movie (and didn't bother to call and tell me until around 9pm).

Also been a crappy morning - had to take our new chihuahua puppy to the vet. She has a big pocket of infection right over the soft spot on her head, and the Doc believes she is hydrocephalic.

Our options are either lots of invasive shunts/antibiotics/etc or put her to sleep. My 5-year-old is heartbroken.

Aw. That's terrible, manna. I'm sorry you're having a bad few days. I hope you feel better soon and things start turning around for you.

That sucks manna.

My class last night was a joke.. a lot of the pre-nursing students were *****ing about the entrance exam and how hard it was... i wanted to comment but i bit my tongue

manna, BSN, RN · Aug 28, 2003

Thanks guys. I'm going to talk to my husband and we're going to decide what to do about the puppy tonight.

Things can only get better from here - got a long holiday weekend coming up! :)

My work is going really bad, bad customers, bullshit work getting dumpd on me etc.

It's just been a bad couple of weeks all around in my opinion. Looking forward to the weekend off. Hopefully some R&R will be just the ticket. (We're going up to the UP of Michigan - yay!)

Sorry to hear you're having a bad time at work, agent. Mine has been up & down. Our owner comes back into town next week & I'm hoping that the stuff won't hit the fan too much.

Sorry for the bad week guys, I feel for ya :sniff: ! Hope it turns around for you.

Well I feel better about Physio, now that I've got one week under my belt, and we only meet once next week with NO lab, so yay! I will get a little break. Also, next week starts the applications (once again! ) for the RN Program. Although the good news, is that they let 50 people in this semester because of a state grant!! More than they ever have in past. I don't expect to be in, in the Spring, but darn it they'll HAVE to let me in next Fall! As long as I pass Physio II that is! Heather

Glad you're feeling better about Physio, Dublin. I'm glad it's not a separate class at my school...it's combined w/ Anatomy. If I had to take it alone, I would probably go nuts!

My husband and I had decided to try our puppy on meds, but when I went to check on her at lunch I knew we had to put her down. I'm so bummed.

(check my blog if you want more details, I'm too distressed to put any thought into trying to cut-paste between here and there this afternoon)

AmyLiz · Aug 28, 2003

I'm so sorry manna. It's so hard to put a pet down. Knowing that you spared it a lot of needless pain only helps a little. It still hurts like heck.

Hugs to you :kiss

Sorry to hear that Agent - do you do tech support too? Will you keep that same job once you start clinicals, or will you do school-only at that point?
