Slow Driver Update

   Since I have the misfortune of being awake at this time, and new guy drives slow from Big City,  I figured it would be a good time to pop in with an update. Things have been ridiculously busy. Between my classes and how incredibly busy we’ve been at work, there hasn’t really been time for much else, including sleep. Today we arrived at work and was told that there was a transfer going to St. Louis. The transfer went well, but was, unsurprisingly, long. 

  School has been annoying, but decent. Even though I’m just at half time, I’m having to spend pretty close to the amount of time studying I spent in medic class (an 18 credit hr class per semester). For two 3 hour classes, that is a bit ridiculous, especially since one is just a refresher. Still, it is what it is. I’m not sure if it’s the way the classes are set up, or my instructor. 

  The kitties are well. Ladybug’s paw is slowly getting better. I know they are just playing, but when Smokey bites her paw, he doesn’t realize he’s biting hard enough to hurt her. Do youns have any ideas on how to get him to stop playing so rough?

  Banjo wanted me to tell youns that he got two- TWO!!!!- new squeaky toys!!!!!!! I’m pretty sure Kirst gave the second one to Sadie, but he thinks it’s his  apparently, the one I gave him is not enough. Daisy says that life is good, even if her brothers are annoying  

  I don’t have anything to report on the stitching front. On the nursing school front, I have almost everything ready. My uniforms are ordered, my school- approved shoes arrived (they’re picky), most of my vaccine stuff is turned in (apparently they just gave me a plain tetanus shot a few years ago, so I need a TDaP booster, and I can’t access my TB test results on the pt portal for some reason, so I have to get that figured out). Let’s see, what else.... I think the only other thing I’ll need is a flu shot this fall. Normally, I skip them, but it’s required for clinicals. 

  I’m looking into something for the near future. I don’t have it all sorted out yet, although I have made up my mind, so I’ll wait to tell youns about it once it’s all sorted out. That said, I would appreciate sure prayer that I make the right decisions, and that all goes smoothly with it. 

  My coworker that was going to build my house had a schedule change and isn’t able to now. The good news is, there’s a guy that will be giving me a quote soon. I’m not sure when he will be able to start it, but he was the first one that didn’t say he was too busy, and he actually came out in a few days to look over everything, so that is progress at least!!!!

  Sorry I don’t have anything interesting to report. Hopefully that will change soon. Until then, youns take care, and please tell what you have been up to! 

  Happy Stitching!

P. S. I’ll try to include pictures in a post soon.  Also, it’s not terrible the new guy is driving slow; he’s working in giving a smooth ride, which is good, but ambulances go much faster than fire trucks, for various reasons.  He will get the fast and the smooth combined soon, I’m sure
