Yummy! Well, so much for my brilliant idea of something different for dinner though :chuckle I am a stress eater too, but I have not been doing bad the past couple of days either - managing to avoid...
I have a relative who lives in Greeley and works as a CNA, she is transferring to the hospital and will be making $18.00 per hour there. Cost of living is high, but I think pay is pretty decent - she...
Cost of living is definitely an important factor - what may seem like a good wage might not keep food on the table. I am in southeastern Colorado, but the job market out here is virtually obsolete....
I would definitely get the study guide as well! I have always been a straight A English student, and yet I had a hard time with the English part of the test. It is a critical thinking test and the...
Good morning Tweety. I am relishing in my few days off before classes start and it is good. Veggie fajitas sound fantastic - I might have to give that a whirl! You could always do a tofu/veggie...
Thanks! LOL - yeah, no kidding! I am so excited, but I do think I'm going to have to schedule time just to breathe - hehe. Well, I was doing pretty good, but indulged on some popcorn last night....

Another one is the CCCsonline system - it's Colorado Community Colleges online. They have a site that's http://www.cccs.edu. There is a link on the left for CCCS online - I haven't gone into that,...
Lori - hi and congrats on the weight loss - that is incredible!!!! Great job! RN2be - I really think it is important to indulge every once in a while. Not all the time, but you have to be bad just...
Oh thank you all so much for this thread! I just got my acceptance letter yesterday and I am thrilled to death! However, I was just panicking about the exact same thing because what the OP described...
Thanks Jen. That is a good idea Tweety - it keeps you committed since you already spent your hard-earned $ on it. I like that idea. Now . . . we just need a gym out here . . . lol! My son and I...

Congratulations! WooHoo! I hope I can be as lucky as you to land a NICU job right after graduation - that is my ultimate goal as well! Enjoy it and yes, please do start that thread, that would be...
Hi! I don't live in the Springs, I live in Southeastern Colorado, but I like it. We are not near the mountains - more like KS out here, but it is very peaceful and serene. I consider the Springs to...
LOL Tweety - well, hopefully the salad helped to cancel out the desserts. I did eat pretty good yesterday and am proud of myself for resisting the temptation of a whole package of snickers bars...
Swimming sounds fantastic - wish we had a pool in our town. Oh well - my semester just ended, so I have until the end of the month free and think I will use it to clean house and start an exercise...
Thanks! Yes, I definitely live in the country. My town hosts a population of about 60 people (not hundred or thousand, just 60). It's very peaceful and serene, I love it! We live in an area deemed...
I am doing the ADN route because the community college is only an hour away from me vs. the closest 4 yr. college which is two and a half hours away from me. I work full time and have a family, so it...
Congrats to you smoking 'kick-the-habit'ers - that is awesome!!! Hi Ranch Girl! I love nature - nothing like hearing the birds chirp. We have a pair of mourning doves that live in our tree and I...

Simply ask your school because each school is different. Some schools count overall GPAs (including those of credits you may have earned many years ago that don't even count for nursing), some count...
Hi Nathan! I think people come into the thinking that they want to be a nurse in a variety of ways. I have wanted to be in the medical field ever since I was a little kid and played with a toy...
Hello everybody! Goodness - skip a day and get completely lost! Looks like we have some newcomers - Welcome!!! Glad to see you all and please post frequently - this thread is about the only...
Glad you heal so well. I go in spurts of getting sick easily and avoiding everything - I think it goes hand in hand with my stress level. For some reason, I always get sick waaaaaaaaay after...
