We have arrived:)

Okay- so after my diagnosis of episodic SVT, the doc didn't want me flying or staying alone. So we changed a lot of plans and my sweet daddy drove  me up here to Missouri today. It took us 12 hours! When we left home it was 74 degrees outside. Here on our arrival it is 20 degrees. Plus, we are in the middle of a winter storm warning for the next couple of days. There is at least 6 inches of ice out there. I can't believe how cold it is BRRRR. Anyway, so tomorrow I start my focus session for completion of these two classes I am in right now. After I get this all over with I will be half way through with getting my nurse practitioner degree and having my master's in nursing. Yeah!! Anyway, so after all this driving and not being stressed, I am now freaking out because I don't know why I didn't realize it until now, but I haven't prepared at all. You know that there will be those nerds that come with everything memorized like we are supposed to, but I have had some issues recently and couldn't do what I was supposed to. I am hoping that my teachers notice this big cardiac monitor on my pocket and take some pity. I just want to pass that's all. I don't care if it is just barely, I just want to pass and move on to the next class. Also, the girl that is supposed to drive me to the school in the morning at 7:30 is nowhere to be found. But that's cool, because we will drive if we have to. I just left her voicemails and e-mails and everything and I am hoping that she will call in the morning. So... tomorrow is the longest day of all, and I hope that when and if I blog tomorrow it will be with good news. I just hope that I can stay calm enough to do a good job. I am so jumpy here lately. Say prayers guys. I just want to come home, be done with this, be in Brit's wedding, and RELAX!!!!

Holy $#%*

do you think work is bad?!? ok, so if you think that you had a bad day today at the office, just a funny comment on that:) Tonight at work, I had a 35 year old male, shit in his hand (please pardon my language but I am so pissed) and attempt to give it to me. So was work bad?!? Just another lovely day in the ICU. Btw, he did it to be ugly- not like he couldn't help it. I mean what do you say to someone that does that? I mean WHO does that?!

And all the days in between...

So after all our scurrying to stop preterm labor. The days that followed turned into a slow and steady drag. Laying in bed all day sounds pretty awesome and luxurious until it turns into 10 days or so:) So much time. For me the toughest part is that you just don't know how long it will be. Are we getting closer? Half way maybe? Each Dr., each Nurse, each resident, each sonographer has a different opinion. Has a new tidbit that is exciting, or overwhelming, or scary even. Then you have all this time to lay and over think (which as many of you know is actually my biggest gifting, lol) Shortly after my Mag drip stopped- four days into our stay. I was allowed to eat. Sit up a bit. I was allowed to actually walk to the bathroom:) We also had a bit of  a scare with our Brodie. Brodie had an usual finding on his morning ultrasound. Each boy has a daily ultrasound every morning, bright and early, at about 7:30-7:45. On that particular morning I noticed something that looked a bit differen...

Becoming a Mommy all over again:)

Image
So, I am not sure why the blog on here that says it is the last one I did popped up and is dated from 2016. Maybe it is a total coincidence. Maybe it's some sort of weird computer glitch. Maybe, just maybe, it is because tonight as I sit here I needed to revisit that night. It was a tough night. A night where I was up tending to sick babies alone. It was an isolating time in my life. It was a scary time in my life. But, somehow in the overwhelming chaos of that life that used to be mine. I had grasped on to how truly blessed I was. I was blessed in my mess... just to be a mommy. I think I needed that tonight. You know. My life doesn't even resemble that life anymore. I don't revisit it often. My time spent as a Mommy in that life seems like something that happened to a person I don't even know. Tonight I read through some of these blogs for a dose of perspective. You know we all need that sometimes. I have been in a fog for the past two days. I think our current situat...
