Thankful Thursday | in two parts again

Hello, hello friends!

I have my last regular Med Surg exam this morning, and unfortunately, this was preceded by two long days of OB presentations (during which we were understandably not allowed to study).

So, last night I was busy studying instead of writing a post.

And I’m doing a little extra cramming right now.

I’ll be back mid-morning, and I’ll update this post with my list then!

But for now, those of you who are morning people can make your lists in the comments. 🙂

____________

Okayyyyy, I’m back!

Time for an actual list.

This week I am thankful:

that my presentations are allll over!

In the last week and a half I have had three presentations to do (one solo, two group) and I am very very happy to not have to rehearse my speeches anymore.

I got full marks on the first two presentations; still waiting for the grade on the one from this week.

that now I only have two exams left

I have officially finished every bit of regular coursework and every regular exam; next week I have two cumulative exams, an orientation, and a convocation, but the orientation and convocation are gonna require zero brain effort.

So really I just have two cumulative exams on my mind.

And in my maternal/newborn class, I could get a 61% and still have an A, so I’m not sweating that one too much. Maternal/newborn material is right in my wheelhouse; I’m not gonna get less than a 61%!

I still don’t know what I need in my med surg class to keep my A; that all depends on how today’s exam went. 😉

(and I find that out tomorrow sometime!)

that the trash pickup here is kind of late

I keep forgetting to put out our trash cans the night before but luckily, that’s no big deal because trash pickup here is so late in the morning!

I only remembered today when I was driving home from my exam and I saw all my neighbor’s cans out but I still had plenty of time to get my trash and recycling to the curb.

that I finally got my CNA license!

Remember how I went to the board of nursing to get it sorted out? Well, my application is approved so I am all official now.

Annnnnd that means I can get a student nursing job. Woohoo!

for blossoms all over the place

The woods are full of flowers right now, which makes walking super fun.

I doooo appreciate the bits of beauty the woods offer in the winter, but that can’t really compare to spring. 🙂

for my free Adirondack chair

You may remember that I got it from my Buy Nothing group last year and it makes a nice spot to eat dinner outside when the weather is nice. 🙂

I still need to rehab it for looks, but it’s at least functional in its current state.

What are you thankful for this week?
