Good books

Now that I am on a so called break from school I am looking for good books to read perferably non-fiction so if you have a suggestion please let me know if you need a suggestion try one of these:
Velvet elvis- Rob Bell
Sex God- Rob Bell
Blue Like Jazz-Don Miller
Through Painted deserts -Don Miller
Under the overpass- MikeYankoski
All were really good books

getting there

While week two working midnights I have had some tough times with no sleep but I think i found a pattern that works for me yesterday so i think I am going to try it. by the way if you read my blog let me know you read it so i know its worth actually writing here and not just in my journal.
Thanks

Adjusting...

Well I am slowly adjusting to midnights I was in tears the other night. I was hating my job for the first time since becoming a nurse and it bothered me. Was I hating it because I was tired or because I am still upset about not being in school or because it was no longer my unit? I dont know what the answer is but for a brief moment in time I was even questioning being a nurse. I know partly I need an attitude adjustment I dont like the supervisor we have on at night and the nurses dont work as a team that well. I miss my days and my residents. But I do get to float so maybe I will be back on my unit soon. Its frusterating when you think that God told you to do something and you start moving in that direction just to have it all fall apart. No one from school calls and these are the people I have called friend and spent the majority of my time with the last four years so where does someoone whose 30 go to make friends when the work 5 nights a week and everyone else works days. I have been going to our singles/young couples group at church and trying to participate despite not knowing anyone. Despite not connecting well I love my church and have grown leaps and bound since being there. So I think that just what life is all about... ADJUSTING.

When Hard Things Get Harder

August 23, I started the final semester of nursing school. August 30,2007 was my last day of my last semester of nursing school....for now. We have a math test that we must take and pass every semester in order to stay in the nursing program. Well I didn't pass my math was set up correctly but some how my answers all ended up with decimal points in them. When you take a nursing med math test that in real life would equate to med errors so our school takes this very seriously. I talked with the department head and tried to ask for an investigation into the calculator that wasnt successful either. I have to reapply to the nursing program for January. Bummer being I no longer get to graduate with the friends I have made over the last two years. One friend had to drop due to a family emergency so I am hoping and praying we at least get back into the program together. So for now I am going to be working at my LPN job full time and working on math problems left and right. Midnight shift here I come.
