My brain is on overload!!! Trying to study for the CPNE is making my brain hurt!! I watch robs DVDs and sheri's online videos about 6 hours a day!! I seriously think I have them memorized!! I have my nemonics (sp?) memorized and have my labs down to about 10-12 minutes!!! I'm working on careplaning....but my brain hurts! I think I might take off Monday the 4th from studying!! Just wanted to see how everyone else is doing!!!

Sorry about the typos. My phone buttons were sticking.....

No problem! I had to download and pay $10 for Skyfire...it lets you open the videos since Flash Player is not supported by the Apple company. Secondly I downloaded GoodReader for opening documents. I got that so I could do the careplans for Sheri. She likes to be able to write back on the form you use. The form is a careplan setup she has on her site that she came up with- you fill it out, email it to her. DO NOT FLATTEN the document though bc she wont be able to write back on it.

I was VERY confused about this all at first but being the curious person and researcher I am, I figured it out. Let me know if you have any more questions. I hope it helps!

I am not scared of Syracuse I am scared of this darn test! LOL....A friend of mine works @ Crouse and she said it's an awesome hospital. Can you tell me anything about Upstate? Did you take your CPNE there?

I have been feeling like "crazy cat lady". I leave next Thursday for Atlanta and have crammed to the point I feel like my children could recite these critical elements. My husband did give me some great advice though. He could sense I was steadily becoming a raving lunatic, and said "What are you so scared of?". To this I replied / yelled, "We don't have $3000 for me to take this stupid thing again!!". He said, "Well you know, whether you pass or fail they already have your $3000, you're not going to get it back either way. So why don't you make them earn that $3000 they have already taken from you. Walk up in that place like your going to go down fighting cause it's pretty obvious you know exactly what you are supposed to do. You might as well not be worried about the money for this trip, it's already gone. If you have to worry about it later on, then that's something to worry about LATER ON." I sure needed this little boost of confidence and I am much more focused today.

AAAWwww........I know you have to live w/him but your hubby sounds awesome! :)
