Therapy

I'm having to post for a little therapy. I just read for my mental health class and I read the chapter on depression...it was a little depressing (no pun intended) so I decided to reiterate what a great life I have!!! I am so blessed by the people in my life. I have a great family, a super awesome husband and great friends. I am going to a birthday party tonight for one of my friends 21st birthday. (That does make me feel a little old but hey, she invited me so I'm gonna go and have a ball!!!) Anyway, tonight should be super fun although I may end up as the DD since I can't get drunk (I have to work at 9am)! It's all good though, we can have some fun even if I don't drink the night away. Plus, I have to study tomorrow too so I can't really be hungover. It's not a state I enjoy anyway so I'm going to avoid that! Thanks to all my friends and family for their support during this ordeal they call nursing school!!! Without support, I don't think I would have been able to do this and I still sometimes question my sanity!!! ;) I know that I've made the right choice, I just have to get through the schooling to get there. I hope you guys have a great rest of your week and a blessed and safe weekend!!! Toodles!!!!

Inspiration

Today has been an inspiring day so far! I have read some awesome blogs, gotten some awesome tips, and been inspired!! Although, just as I was typing that, our stupid air conditioner tripped the breaker!!! GEEZ!!! I thought it was blown though because for a minute, it wouldn't do anything...so I went to the bedroom and the fan was turned off, I forgot that the breaker that runs the ac runs my bedroom too!!! GRRR!!! Back to the breaker and it finally turned back on, thank goodness. It is supposed to get super hot the next few days and it's already really hot outside. So...now that ordeal is over, I can go back to being inspired! LOL!!! I'm really glad that I didn't have to call the hubby and tell him that the ac quit again!!! He's been replacing part after part trying to get the darn thing to work. Perhaps I should take him up on the installation of central heat and air. The only thing that holds me back is that I don't know if the wiring in our house can take it. I don't know that we have a big enough load...if that makes any sense. Our house isn't that old but it wasn't designed very well. It has maybe one plug in every room and only 4 breakers for the whole house. Granted, we don't have a huge house, we're close to 1200 sq feet, but 4 breakers?!?!? Really?!?!? I don't know, I'm kind of surprised that we even have 220. I'll bet that this house is not even close to up to code, I don't know. Luckily, we have several electricians in the family so if we were to need major work, we wouldn't be out as much as the average person would and for that I am extremely grateful!!! (This heat is inspiring me to move back to the mountains though! LOL)

I have to say that even though I gripe...a lot...I lead an amazingly blessed life. I have great friends and family and a superb husband. I am extremely grateful for him. I couldn't get by without him, I don't think and I don't like to think about that anyway. I shouldn't gripe so much, really! I am going to try to be more positive. Having a positive attitude can make an amazing change in your day, your brain is so much more powerful than you give it credit for!!! So, count your blessings today folks, I am off to study!!! Have a safe and blessed weekend!!!

Pizazz

My blog needs a little pizazz. I have all the basic stuff but have no idea how to dress it up like some of the really cool blogs I see out there. I finally got to do post-it-note Tuesday with Supah and that's pretty cool. Granted, I did that yesterday instead of Tuesday but I did it!!! I just want the cool backgrounds, buttons, all of that stuff because my blog seems very plain. So, if someone out there in the blogworld would tell me how to do this, I would be ever so grateful.

On that note, this is going to be a super short blog because I have a lot to do today, namely studying for my test Monday but there's always laundry and cleanup to do too!!! Have a great Thursday!!!

Post-It-Note Tuesday...on Wednesday because that's how I roll!!! ;)
