Just layin' around

Max and I have found ourselves spending more time together, and it's about time! For about a year, I ran around going to class (usually at least 4-8 hrs at a time) then stopping by the hospital to pick up my assignment. Then at night I was studying (which sometimes I had to drop him off with Josh or my mom so he wouldn't bother me to play with him... I couldn't resist his puppy dog eyes) and trying to get into bed before 10 30 pm or so, because I had to wake up at about 5:30am, to run to the hospital and either work for 12 hours, do clinical for 8 hours (which rounds out to about 10 hours), or to class. I tried to make it so I would have one day off a week, and sometimes that happened. But Max, poor Max, only saw his mom every so often. Luckily the very loving people I have lived with for the last two years, have all fallen in love with Max and enjoyed taking care of him. At least that is what they tell me!
But now, after graduating from nursing school, passing my NCLEX, I am a Registered Nurse. I have one more hurdle, I have to find a job, until then Max and I will spend time together walking, sleeping in, playing and cuddling...

You're Like Coming Home...

Lonestar's You're Like Comin' Home
Ridin' restless under broken sky,
Weary traveller, somethin' missin' inside,
Always lookin' for a reason to turn around.
Desperate for a little peace of mind.
Just a little piece of what I left behind:
Well, I found it now: you're like coming home. You're like a Sunday mornin', pleasin' my eyes;
You're a midsummer's dream under a star-soaked sky.
That peaceful easy feelin' at the end of a long, long road.
You're like coming home;

You're like coming home, all right.
Go head an' let your hair fall down.

This wanderlust: it's gone now.

I'm here in your arms;

I'm safe from the road again.

These are the days that can't be erased:

Baby, there isn't a better place;

You're like heaven:

you're like coming home.

It's taken me a while to realize some things recently.

Carrie Underwood's: I just can't live a lie

Lately nothing I do ever seems to please you

And maybe turning my back would be that much easier

Cause hurtful words are all that we exchange

But I can't watch you walk away

Can I forget about the way it feels to touch you?

And all about the good times that we've been through

Could I wake up without you every day?

Would I let you walk away?

No, I can't learn to live without

And I can't give up on us now

[Chorus]Oh, I know I could say we're through

And tell myself I'm over you

But even if I made a vow

A promise not to miss you now

And try to hide the truth insideI'd fail cause

I, I just can't live a lie

Could I forget the look that tells me that you want me?

And all the reasons that make loving you so easy

The kiss that always makes it hard to breathe

The way you know just what I mean

No, I can't learn to live without

Ohh, so don't you give up on us now

This is what I've been battling. I know that I will be happy, I just have to get there?

Another Summary

Graduation was almost two months ago, I've found that I have lots of free time since I no longer have class to go to, or NCLEX to study for (SINCE I PASSED! YAY), Maybe I can slow down now... I do need to find a nursing job, unfortunately there aren't many out there right now with the state of the economy. Everything will perk back up. I couldn't have done any of it without ishie... it's like an ever drawing force, everything feels right with him, everything is perfect. I've noticed one thing... if you spend your time trying to make your spouse happy, then (hopefully) he will try to make you happy and it's balanced and you make each other happy. I know to most people it will seem like it's too simple, but sometimes simplicity is what you need.
