My life as a wife, mother, and nurse.Stress
I spent Sunday night in the emergency department. All my stress, caffeine and lack of sleep has given me palpitations. Nothing quite as exciting as watching PVC's travel across the screen, and knowing that they are yours. :P
My best friend has now reached Ultimate Supreme Best Friend Status forever. She picked me up, and took me to the ED, and spent the whole night there with me. Even though she is extremely busy, she was there in 15 minutes (she only lives a mile away, but gets lost every single time she come's to my house), no questions asked.
So, the doctor's orders were avoid stress (haha), get some sleep (haha, again), and no caffeine or CHOCOLATE!?!?! I mean geez. Talk about kicking someone when they are down.
Man this week can't go by fast enough. This weekend the husbeast and boychild are going away for the weekend to Disney. Best friend is going away to AZ, but I pick her up on Saturday. One test on Saturday, final on Monday, and it is all over for this semester.
Thank GOD!!!!

She is a total best friend. I have GERD and the docs tried the ixnay on the chocolate-coffee thing. Whatever. That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger. That's my motto.
Yeah, let the countdown begin! Monday is less than a week away. I have two finals on Thursday and I am done. My friends and I are already scheduled to hit happy hour hard. Why the hell does nursing school have to be so stressful?
Holy cow, the stress induced a trip to the ED?!
(I feel ya.)
Hang in there, almost done.
I can sooo relate, a couple week ago, i had total palpitations, but luckily (or not so) i recognized them from having them years ago, and knew what to do, but i agree with grnsnflwr, why the hell do they need to make it so damned stressful! You'd think we were in bootcamp or somethin! Anyhoo, i'm so glad you are okay, only one week to go, wow! How many semesters after that?? You are so encouraging to me, thanks! Heather
Hope you are doing ok now, kid! ;)
