Back to School As Usual, Until Next Thursday, That Is!

As a friend reminded me, "this to shall pass". I really tried hard not to get so upset about the whole clinical fiasco. In fact, I was feeling pretty proud of myself for not getting all worked up, binge eating and having my brain blow right out of the top of my head from my blood pressure being stroke level! Then, I went to school yesterday. Of course things had to be rehashed and talked about and you guessed it! I lost it. Only, not like a usual out of control thing, I kept in cool, left the room gathered my thoughts, and came back. I am proud of that!

We will see what happens on Monday when our class meets with the Director of the PN program. No matter what, I still have one more clinical class and I intend to make the best of it. I will do my physical assessment and blood sugars, vitals and all that and just hope for the best. I can do it, I know! I just wish I felt more confident about BPs though.

Since I seem to have the intestinal flu today, I am going to take it easy, study for my test on Monday and finish my presentation for Tuesday and work on drug cards, . . . again. Those things are beginning to be a pain in my kiester! If I wasn't so competitive, I would not do them. Oh, what am I saying, of course I would. I always have to do what is right, what is expected and then try to go above and beyond. Yes, Virginia, I am an over achiever. What can I say?
