the rest of it


I've had people ask me what I do in my free time and my answer is this... What free time?

I'm in school full time to become a registered nurse. I've wanted to be a nurse since the second grade when we had to write a pargraph on what we wanted to be when we grew up. I told my teacher I wanted to be a mom, but she said, "You can't be just a mom, that's not a real job." She obviously didn't have kids.

Anyway, I decided if I couldn't be just a mom that nursing would be my second choice. Being mom is still my first choice, hands down, but nursing has flexible hours to let me be home with my kids and I love what I'm learning.

I'll be graduating in June of 2009. After that I will buy a house, get a dog, and live a long and happy life.

Until that happens, I'll keep working for the YMCA. Honestly, I'll probably still work for them a little bit after I'm an RN. I love my job... well, most of it. I get paid to be a glorified pool bum.
