I feel the same way this morning; sick newborn, up all night and I am not ready... doing more kaplan qbanks and getting high 50's now... freaking myself out. I can't think straight and its too late to postpone.

I think a part of me wants to fail so I can stay home with the baby and the other part of me LOVES my job and my unit/floor so much that I would be crushed if I lost it and had to start over somewhere else after passing:( Flip side, I guess I could find a job closer to home in that case; right now I have a long commute.

what's satas?

I think I'll probably go through the whole shabang of 265 as well.. hey at least I know if I passed or failed by that last questions:/ *thinks of positive*

you are absolutely right. My pastor and some of the church came over yesterday to present the baby to god type of deal (we usually do it at the church) anyway, the came and we did a small prayer/praise meeting and they prayed for me with the exam as well.

At that moment, I knew that I would pass because it's not for me or about me but about the work he wants to do through me.

But as I struggle over these kaplan questions; I just don't feel ready. a part of me is like 'well, how can you rely truly on HIM if you are still trying to rely on yourself' and the another part of me is like 'if you aren't ready, then it's isn't gods will for you'.

OYE! I'm a mess today... the back and forth in my head is exhausting. I think I might just call it a wrap and cuddle up on the sofa and watch all my dvr shows I haven't seen in weeks because of studying.
