  1. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Awesome Roy! Congrats! WooHoo!!! You should be so proud of yourself, you are doing just awesome! Hi Zoe! I, on the other hand, had a Dr. appt. on Monday and found out that my stupid blood...

  2. A few questions from a prospective nursing student

    sddlnscp replied to ebrown343's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hmm - I hadn't thought of that with the check-off's, but I suppose that is probably true. We have one in our class who I feel kind-of bad for because everyone always says, "why do you need to...

  3. NICU Burnout...need to cry

    sddlnscp replied to BlueYYsRN's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    BlueYYsRN, I don't think I can say much to help you since I am just a student. I still want you to know that you are in my thoughts though and I hope that better days are coming for you. I cannot...

  4. A few questions from a prospective nursing student

    sddlnscp replied to ebrown343's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    wdwpixie, I'm so glad what I said made a difference for somebody. :) It's not something I would have thought of either had it not come up in class. Enjoy your waitressing (yes, they can make...

  5. A few questions from a prospective nursing student

    sddlnscp replied to ebrown343's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I ditto most of the previous posts, after our first semester, we were qualified to take the CNA test and work as CNAs. However, some of our instructors have actually cautioned us against that. They...

  6. How long.....

    sddlnscp replied to panzyo3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Check with your school, I think they may differ a little bit. I echo what was said above, mine was on the computer and the results popped up right after I was finished with the test. Best of luck . ....

  7. How many people thought A & P was easy?

    sddlnscp replied to DAMomma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think this just goes to show that everyone is different. I actually thought Micro was much easier than A&P! I guess I am the oddball here. I ended up with A's in all of them, but I really had...

  8. Future Specialty?

    sddlnscp replied to walktheline's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    NICU - it is my calling. :) Seriously, I know that sounds corny, but it truly is and has always been, it just took me a while to quit procrastinating!!! However, I am 4 months into my first year...

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

  12. Is anyone else totally frustrated with CO nursing?

    sddlnscp replied to BeccaRN1970's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Oh don't worry, you didn't offend me at all, perhaps opened my eyes more instead. :) I assumed (and we all know where that gets you) that because the people where I live only complain about this...

  13. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Wow Tweety - the yoga sounds interesting, I would probably fall on butt - LOL! I think 90% of the time is a good thing! I have had this horrible cold for 3 days now, so have eaten only the bare...

  14. Is anyone else totally frustrated with CO nursing?

    sddlnscp replied to BeccaRN1970's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Sorry Becca, I didn't mean to sound cold-hearted about it. I am actually frustrated about it too. It's not like I want to leave rural CO either, I have lived here for over 1/2 of my life and I love...

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    That sounds good Tweety - glad you rallied around and went to the gym, that always makes one feel better! I walked to the hospital at lunch instead of drove and it made me feel much better - it is a...

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    ((((HUGS))))) Tweety - hope you are taking care of yourself and getting some rest. Positive vibes being sent your way! Hi everybody - goodness, I didn't think I had been gone long, but the posts seem...

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Good deal Angie - hope you are feeling better now. I am glad you are avoiding the junk food. Tweety - good for you for taking a day off & then jumping right back on the wagon - I am a believer...

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I know what you mean about the gas prices Angie - they are crazy here too! About the same for the 85 octane. I am so glad you are good about the yoga Tweety, I admire your persistance. Well,...

  22. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Yeay Tweety! That's my worst spot too - food at work. Doing pretty good today, had a small serving of tortilla chips and salsa rather than the donuts/cakes that came in this morning. :) I am happy...

  23. Your area of nursing?

    sddlnscp replied to jen07's topic in General Nursing

    I am a student. My dream is to work in a NICU (neonatal). I cannot wait! I only hope I can actually get into one when I graduate - they are hard to get into around

  24. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    LOL - I like that idea Tweety! I have been using nice, hot baths in the evening as a relaxation technique in my house - it seems to help. I have vowed to be good today, regardless of what gets...

  25. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Tweety - LOL - that's exactly what I was wondering. Not that I know of, but sometimes I think being at the top of the class grade-wise ticks people off in general. I hope that's not it. I was...
