a break from nursing school insanity

Nursing school is intense, nerve wracking, freedom-stealing insanity. I learned this the first time I went. Yep, I said "first time." You can't really say that unless there is a second time, right??? well, unfortunately there is now. I went back. Why, if it's such torture? Well, a bigger paycheck is a huge incentive. Not to mention the greater opportunities I will have with an RN after my name rather than an LPN. Administering blood, taking care of premature labor patients, and even preemie babies on IV's and ventilators. Oooohhh, and maybe the helicopter.... someday. All I can say is that I was crazy enough to go back for more, but the good news is that I'm halfway done with the last leg. Only 6 more months to go.

Something I've been missing most is my sewing hobby. It just makes me feel too guilty to indulge in it when I have a pile of studying to do. I happily realized today that I can do an occasional short and easy project and still get my homework done. Well, most of the time. So here is what I made today. Yay!


If you want to make one for your own bike, you can find the tutorial here:
