I am not a good blogger.  I try to remember how to get onto this site and forget quite frequently.
 
     I am still remodeling this house (ugh) and am getting overwhelmed by it for the last 6 months or so.  I just hired a professional organizer to come and help me this week.  I told her that I would have to do it in stages because my first goal is to get the projects done!  I want all the supplies for each project organized and in the places that I need it.  I would first love to finish my bathroom and the kitchen and then the living room.  After that it will be baseboards and trim.  I want to be done by Christmas - I think that's reasonable!  

     I just applied for an extra income job for the flu season.  I think I will pay off my 2 miniscule credit cards and then maybe save the rest for a down payment on the house.  I am still in "Rent-to-own" mode.  Yes, I'm remodeling a rent to own.  What you don't know is that my mother owns the house and I have paid for all upkeep and repairs since I moved in as our plan was for me to buy it from her.  Thank goodness for mothers!  
 
     I am still enjoying having less responsibility at work and working as a floor nurse.  It's so nice to be mostly done with work when I leave!  I have occasional classes and continuing education but nothing like what I had with the education role.  Ah.  How nice and sweet it is!  I get to work to try to make individual patients happy instead of an entire department of nurses and techs!  Need I say more?  Love my people (nurses) but we (including me) can be a difficult bunch to please!
 
     Still debating the NP role.  Not that I will or won't do it but WHAT I want to do it in!  In this instance my PA friends have it much easier.
