what a day! I am so ready for a break... I'm so sick of school!! I'm tired of studying and doing homework.. I just don't care any more... My life seems like its in a billion little pieces and when things start to look up it all crashes down again.. with school, homework, not getting enough sleep, and things with me and someone I could just give up.. it seems like the more I pray for God to help me in school the worse I do... the more I pray for things to work out with me and someone the worse they get, while everyone else around me is being blessed.. I was telling mom the other night that I wasn't the same person Mitch knew when we got together the first time, I'm not the sweet little child any more, I don't let people walk all over me and I tend to tell people what I think... I need a miracle before I have a nervous break down or something...

however now that I got the above out of the way... I talked to dad today =] he's doing a lot better.. and I was going to go by and see him tomorrow but he'll be gone all day.. but I am going to drop by his house for a few and drop something off and then head to my cousins house down the road to get some water out of the well for my microbiology class. we are going to test it Thursday in lab.

I randomly opened the Bible a few nights ago and read this
2nd Corinthians chapter one 3-4
3. Blessed be God, even the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the father of mercies, and the God of all comfort.
4. Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

I'm going to get off here.. on top of everything else I now have a pretty bad headache... ugh.

welp had a busy day today... went to school this morning.. I had to turn my radiology application in today and I also had to write a letter of intent to send in to try and get into the Clinical laboratory technician program... I really hope tho, that I get into radiology. my friends husband told me today while sitting in the cafeteria at school, (which is used more for studying then anything) that ACT will do whats called a super score, which is where they'll take your highest test scores and combine them to get your over all composite score. which if that's the case then I'll have an 18 on it... so I emailed ACT when I got home from class and asked them.. hopefully I'll be able to get it.. guess we'll see...

tonight my nursing class went by pretty quick... we had a test, which roni I made your A on it. only one more test to go, the the state check offs... which I'm sure won't be so bad.. hopefully. we checked off tonight on measuring and weighing the person.. and applying elastic stockings. which is a pain and a workout in itself. next week is taking pulse,respiration(which is how many breaths per min you breath), and blood pressure... my clinicals start in four weeks.. and I have the night shift... 5 pm - 1 am.... goodness gracious I'll be a zombie by the time the night is over.. esp since I have to drive home and it'll take me about an hour....

well I'm going to head to bed, got an early morning ahead of me.. work, school, work and then homework... when will it ever end...

it was nice talking to you today roni on msn..

Still have a ton of school work to get finished but I'll get it and everything will be just fine.. rewrote some of my microbiology notes trying to get it to stick in my brain. I'm still trusting God to help me pass this class. and trusting him on every thing else I need to do this week.. esp the ACT.. have a couple of tests this week.. I'm sure I'll pass them, at least I hope so anyway..

not much went on today around the house, worked on homework... oh and worked on homework.. lol Roni, I trust that you'll have a good week and that nothing will go wrong.. I'm counting down the days until the summer can not wait! I'm so ready for a break.. I want a vacation!! speaking of vacation I need to call my dad and see if we are still going on our trip in June.. I hope we are..

Roni, remember uncle Dave, his brother's funeral is this Tues. hate to cut this short but I'm going to get some sleep.. I feel like I haven't slept in days.

~Bad/Good day~

Bad day:
Yesterday was not the greatest day in the world.. it first started with me not being able to find my calculator so i could have it when I met with Jack to go over math for the ACT.. then I was leaving my house to go to the gym and to school.. and i fell down my steps.. then when I was almost to the gym some guy started to come over in my lane and almost hit my jeep.. It was so close I could see inside his car : and I couldn't speed up or I would have hit him, and i couldn't blow the horn cause it almost to late... but thankfully the good Lord was watching over me... I was never in my life ready to be back home.. I'm so glad I made it home in one piece and not in 100's of them... I kept telling everyone that I should go home, go back to bed, and restart my day and hopefully then it would be better.

Good day:
today has been a 100 times better, I didn't fall down the steps, no one almost hit me, mom found my calculator, and I believe with the lords help I passed my medical microbiology test. I also got some of my weeks goals accomplished... which were to pass my tests, rewrite my medical micro notes, finish my history review for my test, write my report, and do my econ homework... I believe I passed my tests, I have part of my history review finished, and part of my report typed.. so I'm getting their! hopefully by Sunday I will have all of them finished or at least a big chunk of them.

it's pushing 11:30, so I'm going to make this day into a great day and hit my bed... I'm actually going to study in my sleep, I've been recording my microbiology class on my Mp3 player, I've heard that if you listen to it while you sleep it helps you to remember it.. so I've been trying it... I also have some of the class on a CD that I listen to while I'm driving... goodness I'm such a nerd! NOT!! *whispers so maybe I am*

quick update before heading off to bed... not a lot has happened today, just the same old same old.. went to the gym, then to class, came home and studied for tests, and relaxed. Roni I trust your week so far has been a good one.. can't wait for this semester to be over with so I can talk to you more often on msn. I start my eight hour clinical's in about 5-6 weeks... be working in a nursing home with elderly people.

tomorrow not much is going on, just working, and going to school.. however I am meeting with someone tomorrow at three in college library, he's going to help me with my math for the ACT so I can hopefully get my score up to an 18 so I can hopefully get into radiology this fall... =] I only have two chances to meet with him, so hopefully I'll be able to catch on quick and remember it.

well gonna head to bed... night roni, hope you have a great day at work.

hey roni, quick update before I hit the books again... not much went on today.. went to the gym worked out, went to class... hmm I talked to a Lady about getting into clinical laboratory technician program for the fall of 09.. the way she talked I shouldn't have a problem getting in.. but we'll see.. I still want to do radiology but until I get in the program I'll do this.. I get to learn how to take peoples blood from them, and learn how to diagnose whats wrong with them.. the way she talked since I've took so many classes that if I do get in the program I'll be able to take freshmen classes and sophomore classes as well if my grades are good enough so that means I'll get out quicker too.. so roni I need you to remember me in your prayers cause I need a B microbiology now if I do go into this program.. with the Lords help I will get it.

Zach has been talkin to Mitch for me, and he told me that Mitch said he had thought about coming up here once or twice but was uneasy about it.. Zach also said that Mitch said something about coming to my graduation in seven weeks! I so hope he does..

well roni, I'm going to hit the books again before I head to bed... ugh I'm so tired of studying. test after test after test... when will it ever end...

well lets see where to start... didn't get home the other day from niece's birthday party until after one.. goodness nine girls spent the night with her, they had a blast... played games, watched movies, ate pizza.. when I got home I cooked supper right away and then got ready for church. then while at church my pastor's daughter-in-law's cell phone starts ringing.. it was so funny cause she takes off running to the bathrooms.. i about died laughing... it took me a few tho to realize what was going on.. its one of those "you should of been their" things. I had my dad prayed for after the service too, I cried.

this morning, went to church.. had an awesome time, although I must admit I didn't get much from the service.. I fought the whole time with the devil... he was just trying to torment me.. trying to make me feel like an old maid... with Che and Zach getting married and amber and Seth having a baby I feel left out! but in time me and my someone will be married.. I can't wait.

we have a new addition to our church family. he's so cute, his name is Jackson Levi I believe he weighted seven pounds and something, and was I think 21 inches long.. =] I held him for a while, and the whole time I thought "I want one so bad I can't stand it"

well I'm gonna get off here and head to bed before my someone calls..

Hey roni!

Had a long day! goodness it seemed like it would never end.. but it wasn't too bad.. kinda enjoyed it. I talked to someone today about the radiology program and she wasn't much help on getting me in.. she kinda made me feel stupid actually.... I cried when I called mom and told her about it =[ I want in radiology so bad I can't stand it and only one stupid point is keeping me from doing that. I need to find someone to help me understand math, but no one has the time, and I don't have the money to spend for someone... ugh I don't know what else to do!

I talked to dad today, he's sounding some what better thank God.. I told him though if he didn't go to the doc and get some antibiotics then I'd come and take him... =] so he said he'd see about getting some tomorrow...

Tomorrow night I am going and spending the night with my niece, her birthday is tomorrow and her grandma called and asked me or mom to come stay with her to help with the birthday party and to keep up with the kids.. I haven't spent the night with her in a long time.... my niece is making me old she'll be ten tomorrow...

well I'm gonna go, I'm rewriting my medical microbiology notes. I recorded him today with my Mp3 player and listened to it when I got home. I'm going to listen to it tonight when I go to bed and I'm going to listen to it tomorrow while I'm at the gym and look over my notes as he goes Thru them in class.. Lord willing this will help me pass the tests in here and pull my grade up.

well.. home from the hospital.. didn't stay very long tonight was way too tired! and was hungry so I went to Krystal's and got a hamburger and chili cheese fries. school went well today... =] glad its over tho. just one more day this week.. I'm so ready for a break... not that I'll get one this weekend theirs a ton of things I would like to get finished before Monday so we'll see.. I might pull an all nighter and get it done. I just have so much homework it's not funny.. Lord willing I will get a lot of it finished tomorrow.

Roni, no my dad isn't in church, one day he will be =]

well I know this is short but I'm gonna start on the mountain of homework.

*pics were taken by Melissa cockman*

Hey roni! sorry its taken me so long to update my blog, our Internet has been acting really stupid! its been driving me crazy trying to update and can't.. at least now it seems to be stable.. =] I trust you've had a good first of the week =] mine has been supper busy with work, school, tests, homework... goodness when will it all end?? lol only about eight more weeks thank God.

I've not really done anything interesting for a while, church over the weekend was good! he was preaching about faith.. I never really thought on ways to prove your faith, I always thought that saying it to yourself and believing it was all it took, which I guess to some point it does, My pastor said that we prove our faith my keeping it in the presence's of God. I really miss my someone, wished I could see him... its been over a year since I've seen him last =[ Lord willing that will change soon and then one day he'll be living here for good... I can't wait until that day. I'd do anything for it to happen this month.

my dad has been pretty sick for about two weeks now, and he won't go to the doc, I've asked him a ton of times but all he says is maybe.. so I called my cousins that live down the road from him to ask them if they would try and get him to go to the doc.. if that doesn't work then I'll take him myself.. =] I dreamed the other night that he passed away, and it scared me really bad, and him being sick like this doesn't help. I guess with everything going on with my great aunt caused me to dream what I did.. it was a never ending dream though cause I'd wake up and roll over and when I'd fall back asleep I'd pick up right where I left off... it was horrible.

Godmother in the making!

I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself!! Amber is going to have a baby!!! the big day is Nov 8Th!! I get to be the Godmother =] I'm going to throw her a Baby shower, and help with getting the nursery ready.. =]

<-the mommy to be*

Today I went and took the act and then went and ate at white castle.. tried to beat ups to my house but that fell through.. they beat me... they were suppose to deliver my Eastern Asia history book so I had to chase them all over the place because they wouldn't leave it at my house cause I hadn't signed for it... ugh. read some of it.. started working on my test review.

well I'm going to get off here and relax, watching Tru Calling. its about a girl that works in the morgue and the dead people ask her for help, then her day starts all over and she tries to stop the person from getting killed.

Winters back...

well... I believe winter is back... we have about 3-5 inch's of snow outside... their salting and scraping the roads.

babysit my niece and nephews tonight.. took them to McDonald's fed them supper and let them play in the play ground.. they had fun.. =]

pray for me tomorrow I have to take the ACT and I need an 18 on it. going to head off to bed. please keep someone in your prayers thanks.

I believe summer is here hopefully no more cold days!

well spring break has really made me lazy!! lol been working this week.. yay.. not...lol

I am how ever going by school tomorrow to pay a bill and to see about getting a pin number. I ordered my Eastern Asia history book today.. so it should be here Fri by ups... I'm looking forward to getting it.. seems kinda interesting. studied math for the act today theirs no hope.. I have no clue how to do the math but Lord willing I will get what I need Friday and my days of taking this test will be over (I hope)

Roni, family is doing well.. hope your family is doing well also.. tell your momma I said hi next time you talk to her. hope and trust work has been going well for you as well.

well gonna get off here and take a quick shower and get ready for bed... Gym time comes early in the mornings.. sometimes its here before I know it.. lol

Well not much has happened this weekend. went to the store Saturday for grandma. went to church last night and this morning. which was really good.. last night he preached about watching and praying and this morning he preached about self transformation.

been working on some homework today... I don't know what I'm going to do with my microbiology class... roni just pray that God will help me get a B or an A in the class. Glad it is spring break this week =] I'm ready for a break but I pro won't get much of one.. I want to get as much finished of homework that is due in the near future finished this week when I don't have to worry about studying for tests..

Friday I went to Cumberland falls... had fun... I was their when I was little bitty but didn't really remember it.

<- me and Nate right before we left for the funeral.

Below are pictures are of Cumberland falls.

~spring break!~

well today was a really busy one... I'm beat! went with my sister in law this morning to get my brother a birthday cake.. then went to Anderson office supply for some ink for our credit card machine at work. then I worked for a little while, went to school, then I went to wal mart got my brother a birthday card and then went to grandma's.. which then I guess I parked my Jeep wrong cause my aunt came out and made me move it, even if I was on the grass she'd do the same thing... feel like I'm being watched by the police.. ugh...

went to the funeral home, seen my great grandma and a bunch of family. Roni, I have pictures and I will post them later.. but gotta a long busy day tomorrow..

well today has been a busy day and a sad one. =[
my great aunt on my mom's side passed away =[
Roni, remember us your in prayers. will be at the funeral home tomorrow night and Friday.

Sorry I didn't update last night, was busy studying for my medical microbiology test for Thursday.. ugh I'm stressing its a ton of stuff to know.. =[ A lot of terms to remember, drugs to know, and what they do.. ugh... pharmacology... not fun.. my little brain can't hold it all but with Gods help I'll pass my test...

went to an extra credit thing today at school.. It was pretty interesting.. I'm thinking about volunteering with them.. I'd be on call 24/7, I'd be called to the hospital, then I'd be with the patient off and on from a year up to two years... I'd also be able to go to court and everything... and I'd also get to do speech's at surrounding schools and colleges...

below are just some random pictures.. The picture of Mitch was taken while he was at work one day on his lunch break.. the picture of me was taken a few summers ago(actually the summer Mitch asked me to marry him) at a place called mill springs. I lost my sunglasses that day and I told Mitch about it so we went the next he was up... well he tried to find my sunglasses for me... needless to say.. they were long gone in the lake some where.. Mill springs is also the place were me and Mitch had our first date =] so every time he's here we go down their...


well better get back to studying.. ugh keep me and Mitch in your prayers Roni..

church this morning was really good! he was preaching about Abraham and Sarah and how they waited for their promise son....

went to Donna and Steve's today and played corn hole, and catch phrase... I also studied for my medical microbiology test that I have Thurs.. Roni I ask you to pray I pass it.. =]

I'm sorry this is such a short update.. I gotta get to bed.. its after eleven and I have no clue when someone will call, just depends on when he gets off tonight from the Emergency room (if he even calls, I told him too =])
