I'm a Real Nurse!!!!

What a glorious week this was!! With the Lord by my side, I took my state boards on the 20th. On Monday, I found out that I am OFFICIALLY a REGISTERED NURSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I passed my state boards!!! WHOOHOOOO!! The dream has finally become a reality! On Wednesday, my license was posted on the Board of Nursing website :) I am so excited!!!!!!! I can't even describe how excited I am!

This week I worked my three 12 hour shifts and then went to a Neonatal Resuscitation class. I feel so much better now about working in the nursery. It was a great class :) Next week I am working and attending a Fetal Heart Monitor class. My boss has also decided that I am going to be the "meditech ambassasor" at our hospital. You are wondering what the heck is that! Well it is a computer system that allows each department to communicate with other departments via the computer. Our little rural hospital is all paper charting and telephones so this is going to be a drastic change for us. I will be attending training the following week and then in May, when meditech goes live, I will be training everyone on how to use it! I think the plan is to hold classes in a computer room and I will teach the class. Fantastic lol. RN for a day and look at that huge responsibility bestowed on me. I am excited though :) So work is going great! I have to say I absolutely love my job!

Cory is making some great progress in his studies and projects. I am excited for him to finish school this year and be Dr. Farley :) It will be great! I also must say that this weekend will be my first full weekend where I don't have any homework or studying to do (YAY!) and I am looking forward to a weekend with my wonderful husband where school is not looming over me!

Well it has been a month since I posted pictures, whoops! So here are a few albums for you to check out :)
