The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 3

[tink2020]

Hey guys! I just wanted to share my door signs for the cruise with you all. Kyle's busy right now, and hasn't been on for weeks anyway, so I'll leave this posted temporarily.

Like I posted on the DCL door sign thread, I'm a bit embarrassed at how OCD this first picture is going to come across. I SWEAR I'm not planning all these details for this trip. I am going to just relax and not plan a lot, so it will be a very different trip than the parks. (Like you all will believe that ) But anyway... I felt like the only way to justify the simplicity is to show how they work together.








Who am I kidding, I'm totally OCD and you all know it. I'm serious about my reasoning for posting it though!

ETA: I hope to change the picture for 'graduation' to a picture of us on graduation. Right now that's the Cincinnati Children's Hospital campus, since I don't have one yet

When one life enters, another exits.

This is not my style, but you all should know why I'm not on for the rest of the week. Family friends (daughter is in Matt's class) Rusty died last night. He was working on the treadmill and had a massive heart attack. 47. In their home. Leaves a wife and three small children - all home, all witnessed their father's death. Pray for the survivors. They need it.

That is terrible (insert GroupHug here)

Um.... they're finished

No, they were all right. The first one was REALLY hard, long, detailed, etc. The second was not bad at all. I won't know my grades for a while, but I had figured out ahead of time what I needed to pass each class. I got at least that many on each, so I'm done with nursing classes! Well, at least for this school and this degree

It was really hard to stay focused this time though.

Thanks for asking, and thanks everyone for cheering me on! It's nice to be finished (at least with class and tests)

Now if I could just get my role transition schedule sorted out, which should happen tonight, I'll really be in business!

Glad to hear they went well

Congratulations Lynn!!! I mean Meme!!!

Noah was in the running for my Alyssa if she ended up being a boy!! (since I'm one of the few that didn't cheat)

Tammi I too never found out the sex and had so much fun choosing names for both. I convinced my DB not to find out for his first and now that number 2 is on the way I asked SIL on Friday if she was going to find out and she said No.

Tammi -

I am not a cheater either!!!! I love the surprise of it!!! I know it is a surprise no matter when you find out but I love the suspense all the way through the pregnancy!!!

Besides - I know a few people whose little boys hated their pink nursery!!!

I always think that, what if the say girl and you decorate and buy clothes and tell everyone the name and then out pops a little boy all wrapped in blue!!!

HEY DDA!!

Guess what -

Kristine is joining Marti, Tammi and me at WDW!!!!

You guys are going to have so much fun, wonder if I could meet you for for coffee on the drive either way - I could always send GD and the kids for a walk!!!

I know you are flying but we are driving down to Weston for a Batmitzvah on Friday and back on Sunday and drive right thru Orlando!!
You can still wave as you fly over ATL though!!

So this evening DS came to ask me if he could go to our neighbor and I said okay, then DD came to ask and she went, she came home saying they were not there and where was Adam.
He went to friends down in the cul-de-sac and about 1/2 hour later I sent her to go get him and she went out the door and a couple of minutes later came in saying he had fallen in the river!!
I ran out the garage and there was DH with the friends dad from down the road, they were playing by the river - the Chatahoochee is far down from there house and Adam slipped and fell in. Luckily he was not hurt and they managed to get him out he was just soaked from head to toe and freezing!!
He is so lucky there was a parent there as he knows not to go to the river without a parent or I would kill him!!!!

I am so glad he is okay!!!!!! that is really scary!! But might be a really good lesson for him since now he can see how easy it is to fall in and if an adult wasn't with him he could have really been in trouble!!

That is exactly what we told him and why it is so important for them never to go to the river on his own, he is just skin and bones and even after his hot shower he was shivering and shaking!!! boy did he stink too!!!

I have some good news to share! Except it's kind of scary, as well

I got a phone call today to schedule an interview at Children's hospital! It's set for April 4th, which is awesome. The only thing is, it sounds like it's going to be exhausting!

At 11:00, I meet with the nurse recruiter for 30 minutes. From 11:30-12:30 I interview with the clinical manager and a staff nurse of the unit where I am applying (at the same time). From 12:30-1:30, I interview with a nurse educator and some general HR person at the same time. And then from 1:30-2:30 I interview with some upper level brass type person.

I don't think I've been on an interview that lasted ONE hour, let alone over THREE! Is this what the real world is normally like?! If so, then I don't think I like it. If not, then it's no wonder there's a nursing shortage!

And to top it off, I spoke with a fellow student who has interviewed on the same floor. She said that in one of the sessions she felt like she was taking an oral exam or something. They even started asking about nursing theorists?!

She got a job, so I guess there's hope... but talk about something NOT being much of a confidence builder!
