*Cough* *Sneeze*... Wow, it's dusty in here!

Holy COW, it's been a long time since I wrote a blog. My initial idea was to write all about Panama. I had to wait on that one because I was so. blown. away. by. everything. from that trip. It was life changing, awe-inspiring, and I still cry thinking about what I saw there and the gentle touches from people who have seen more hardship than I could even imagine. I'm still going to write about that. I promise.

So what have I been doing in the meantime?

A little bit of studying, a little bit of Directorship stuff, a little bit of actual paid-job thing, a lot of critical care and leadership clinicals, applying for my first RN job, ... oh, and getting ready for:

"Graduating" is a good color on me, don't you think?
So, that's coming up. in just over 38 days. I'm excited, because not only is this FINALLY happening 20 years after the initiation of advanced education, but because my family is going to be there. My biological grandmother and uncle will be coming down for the ceremony, which is touching. There is going to be so much awesome in that room that it's going to be time to buy stock in Kleenex.

With this all being said, and done, and dreamed about, this blog will be graduating, also. Initially it began as a snarky, sarcastic, humor blog, however as I've grown in this world, I would like my blog to grow also. I enjoy reading nursing blogs, and this will most likely become a similar entity, yet I'm still going to maintain my own sense of style. The world involves a LOT OF STUFF, y'all, and that will be in here, too.

I look forward to growing even more, and hope that you will continue to join me on my journey.
