I have been out of school for a couple of weeks now and my 4.0 stands. I ended up with a 98% in my A&P class. I had my nursing orientation on Friday and am having a small panic attack about my career choice yet again. It is going be challenging for sure. Funny thing is that my A&P II professor is also going into nursing. So he will be my teacher this summer and fellow classmate this fall. It is bizarre. He is a retired oral surgeon so as my wise and hysterical friend Amber pointed out he will be going into the patients room saying.. "Hi I am Dr. Hudson, and I will be your nurse today." Weird right?
Anyhow, moving on. The girls last day of school is Thursday and it is just a half day. We are going to have to do a lot of fun stuff in June cause once July hits I will no longer be able to do anything fun with them. I found out that they go back to school on Aug 9th and I am not done with my summer class till Aug 5th :(
Mykenzie's room is coming together! We, well I, have been busting my butt in there trying to get it redone. It is no longer pink. Now it is a purplish grey, more grey than purple. Black and hot pink accents throughout. She got a new dresser, and a desk from someone else that I am repurposing. It had a hutch and a drawer, now it has no hutch and 3 drawers (or it will by the end of the day tomorrow since I still have to poly the drawers) I still need to get a bookshelf for in there as well. I have a couple of things to make for on her wall, hopefully that will be taken care of this week.
My bedroom has been painted. The color is not what I was going for but I am going with it cause it took me forever to paint it. I got new furniture at Ikea last weekend but we haven't put it together yet, I had some other things I wanted to do first.
We have scrapped the outdoor renovations for right now. We are however, getting a backsplash for our kitchen, finally. I have to go pick out the tile tomorrow.
I still have so much to accomplish but I don't know if it will all happen before I have to go back to school or not.
*Laundry room
~cabinets need bought and hung

there is much more, but I am not going to rush it, this room is on the back burner currently and again
I bought a new chair at Ikea for Travis in the loft which of course required the room being shuffled around but we did that yesterday so at least that is done.... I should go hang the curtains then it will really be done.
Our master bath is FINALLY done! We painted a while ago and I have been adding accessories ect. I was just missing some pics which I ended up getting at Ikea so they are hung and it is done. It looks soooo much better. I am really happy with it!
I need to repaint and poly my pantry shelves before I go back to school as well. It must happen, they are driving me nuts!
Let's see what else is going on.... Well obviously I went to Ikea! Chandra and I drove down last weekend, left Friday morning and came home Sunday afternoon. It was FANTASTIC! We shopped and hung out. It was a perfect little get away, especially after we shopped HARD Friday and Saturday and then went to the hotel Sat. night got in pjs at 6 crawled into our comfy beds, ordered room service and chatted and watched HGTV! Bliss!
Kaylee got Good Citizen at school finally! She is crazy excited! She ran around the house screaming! The ceremony is on Thursday morning. The girls GS ceremony is Monday night. Kaylee is bridging to Brownies, though she wont be recognized as a brownie by GS she will be by our troop and they can just suck it. She is really excited about that too. This will end our stressful year and next year we will start fresh with Sylvia and I as the leaders so hopefully it goes as smoothly as we have envisioned.
I made a MAJOR mistake in life recently. I realized the other day that I double booked myself to be in 2 separate states at the same time! Go ahead and say it, I am a tool. I was supposed to be going with GS to Gatlinburg the weekend of June 25th. I have been planning the trip, doing fundraisers for it ect. Then I plan our trip to Ohio with us leaving the SAME weekend! UGG! We can't move the trip because Travis' brothers are coming in from Arizona and Virginia and his mom is coming up from Florida. We can't push it back a couple of days because we are already leaving to come home on the 5th and I start back to school on the 6th! I feel like such an ass and feel so badly that I have done this. The old, organized, less stressed me never would have done something so stupid. Geeze!
Anyhoo, as you can see with the 7 million projects I am trying to accomplish at the same time I am still stretching myself pretty thin. I am really hoping to knock a lot of it out by the end of next weekend since it is memorial day weekend, then we can relax and have a fun month before I head back to school.... It could happen.
