The Coffey Grounds

 

Yep – that’s my new official title!  We found out last Thursday that I passed my boards and am officially a registered nurse.  Needless to say, that was a load off!  If I had not passed, it could have presented a serious issue coming up in the seemster.  In our advanced assessment class we are doing things like pelvic exams and other things where a license is required.  Also, it’s much easier now to concentrate on school.  I felt like I was just getting through day in class and not giving everything my full attention.  So, now I can just concentrate on schoolwork.  That feels great! I celebrated with a facial and haircut Friday afternoon, then Mike took me out to fabulous dinner at Perry’s Friday night.  It was wonderful to just relax a little and enjoy the success of a hard year’s work!

This weekend, we caught up more on our to-do list and put the finishing touches on the new shed,  got the yard back in shape, and even cleaned up Mike’s office!  It felt good to catch up on stuff around the house.  I want to decorate for the fall, but it seems a little premature given that it’s still 90+ degrees outside!  I’ll definitely do it next weekend.  I haven’t gotten too much studying done, but will be back to that full time tomorrow.

Mike is doing great.  He’s been enjoying a little more free time lately since work has settled down a little.  He’s been catching up on things around here and working on his car most weekends.  Other than that we are just living life and planning the upcoming activities for the Fall (which seems to be packed already…how’d that happen?)
