Update

Wow. It's been forever!!! ha. Just an update. I've been going to school for two months now and am getting pretty far!!! Apparently my teachers think if I can keep going at pace I'm doing right now I'll be done by this August. Crazy huh!

Monday I start with the lab...which is basically learning how to do blood draws on the arm and hand, and eventually (a little later) doing IV's in both those places. I'm way excited and nervous at the same time! I'm loving class!

Stupid Phone

Hey...so today I accidentally washed my phone when it was in my pants pocket but luckily it was almost to the end of my contract so I was able to renew it and get a new phone for not too bad of price. Here's the thing - I lost all my contacts, which is pretty much all of you guys! If you would, please comment and leave your cell# and home # if I had that and I'll add you guys. Ha.

April Fool's

Today I (with the help of my sister - she had the plan and I put it into play)and my sister pulled a way good prank on my mommy dearest. ha. We drove to the Middle School around 11 am (as you know my mom works as a lunch lady there) and I drove her car (the explorer) back to our house with a spare key I found. Then when she got off work (around 2 pm) we went back and watched, laughing hilariously, as she tried to figure out where she had parked. Ha. She couldn't figure out if she had forgotten where she'd parked or if someone had stolen the car. After awhile I figured she had suffered enough so I jumped out from behind another car and yelled "APRIL FOOLS!!!" It was awesome!!!

SCHOOL'S HERE!!!!!

April 6th is the big day!!! Ha. Its the day I start my medical assisting class. I'm so psyched!!! The only bummer is I have to do school M-F during the summer, but I guess I can live with that :) I never thought I'd ever say this - but I MISS SCHOOL!!!!! haha. I went and bought my books ahead of time and have been looking through things so I think I kinda understand how the class works - but who knows...I may have it completely wrong. ha. I'm just excited to start!!! Here are pics of me in my scrubs and of my stethoscope/blood pressure cuff:








Charlie has grown up a ton!!! He's definitely still a handful, but we've been going to obedience school so it has helped quite a bit! I love having a dog in the house though!!!!! As you can tell, he's definitely a character. ha.







Anyways, things here are going good! A little stressful trying to make sure everything's done/getting done so that I can start school. I really can't wait!!! ha.

Silly Brother...

Okay, guys, my crazy brother and his friends are in a video class and they decided to enter a contest with this entry about getting flu shots. haha. Enjoy!

Quick Update

Hey! Sorry I don't have any pics...but I've just been kinda busy lately. ha. Charlie's getting pretty big...his paws are very large compared to the rest of his body so we know that we're in for a very big dog! But, we're okay with that b/c we're used to big dogs.

So far he's peed many times on the carpet and tile...but luckily that's all he's done in the house. He's pretty good about going to the door when he needs to go, but sometimes we don't catch him in time. ha.

Other than that, he's definitely a little puppy biting everyone and everything. ha. But he's definitely worth it and he definitely fits into our family very well!

New Puppy

I never thought I'd ever be able to say this!!!! I'm (we're) getting a puppy!!!!! Haha. The reason why I said I am getting one is cuz I'm going to be the main one taking care of him. Anyways, he's a mix between an Australian sheepdog and we think a border collie. His name is Charlie...and it totally fits him. He's seriously gotta be one of the cutest puppies alive! I get to pick him up on Thursday from the shelter (we're adopting him). I wish I could've already brought him home...but they have to keep them in 'quarantine' for a week when they're brand new to the shelter...so I've had to wait. Anyways, enjoy the pics! Tell me what you think :)
