My GOAL for the weekend!!!

Is to DO MY TAXES!!!

Yup, I do 'em... and yup, I itemize. In fact, we had enough medical expenses (blech!) and a low enough income that we might actually get a refund too! But its a lot of work... I have to create a spreadsheet with our deductions or I just can't keep everything straight... but once it's done its damned pretty, and all the documentation is in order so I don't fear an aud1t if ever there should be one. (Huzzah?)

In any case, that is my goal.

I am starting to feel like I need to start swimming again. I haven't replaced the suit I lost in the move, but I'm feeling like it's time. I miss how good and loose I always felt after swimming, and holy-god-damn did it do good things for my shoulders (YAY!)... so another goal for the weekend may be to get a new suit. Yeah... and shave the furry legs too. Sound good?

Hey Mojo! Congrats on Japan!!!

Good week.

Its been a good week... I don't know if I mentioned that I was tipped off to some awesome couch-to-5k pod-casts, but I was (on a knitter's blog no-less!) And while I'm only up to week 2 on the pod-casts (I wanted to see how the whole program went) the music is fantastic and the guy's voice is mellow and positive and he tells you right when to run and when to slow it back down to your brisk-walk. I whole-heartedly recommend them!!

School is also going well! I am finishing up Pathophysiology II today with the final and then Pharmacology II starts on Wednesday and goes for 2 weeks. Last class of February is Ethical and Legal Considerations in Nursing Practice, which sounds like a FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC class... and THEN we start Adult Health II clinicals. During the month of march I will be doing the Adult Health II theory course WHILE AT THE SAME TIME completing 156 hours of clinical. That's almost 30 hours per week of just clinical... PLUS book-work and on-line coursework... I know we've been at this for nearly 5 months and that we FINISH in October... so at 1/2 way through we should be figuring out how to manage 40 hours a week of course work... but now we're talking a total of more like 60-80 hours per week of school+clinical... YIKES!!

I guess I should enjoy the easy life while I can... eh?
