The juggling act...take 2


Doing laundry, organizing the pantry, sweeping the floor, planning and cooking dinner, spending time with my four year old, having time to blog about spending time with my four year old, coloring with her, is so very nice. These are moments that I don't get to do very often because I'm either stuck doing homework, something that I'm resenting more and more as the semester goes on, or I'm at work dealing with an administration that doesn't care about the patients much less about their staff and being there I resent a whole lot, although the people I work with make it tolerable and worthwhile and the patients well, God bless them, that's why we all get up in the morning. Anyway, these past few days that I have had with my children and my guy have made me re re re re evaluate my priorities. I don't have to work with the mad fury that I have been, granted we want to get out of debt sooner rather than later, of course I want new flooring, and new dishes, a new couch would be nice too, plus I enjoy going out to dinner often, Botox, waxing, manicures, pedicures, designer purses and shoes are nice but not necessities and I can do with out for a little more time with my kids and my dude...I am scheduled to have a tummy tuck in January and have been putting money down on it, so I guess I need to make payments...hmmm


Honestly, I'm not even sure I want my masters degree just now, plus I'm under a great deal of pressure to find my own clinical site and to complete the program by 2011 because it's the last cohort for my university. Sigh. I'm not even sure I want to get my degree in this specialty. I sure hope it is only a phase.

  1. I totally can relate. I started back to school in March and, this session, I'm struggling to get it all done.

  2. It is just a phase, and the pressure will decrease

  3. Hang in there .... You can do it.

    Up until last year I was a Student/Mom...and it was one of the hardest things I've ever done....but so worth it! I like you--struggled with some of the same issues. Of course I was only getting my bachelor's ...but, I can totally relate.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog! :)

  4. this will pass!I feel the same way sometimes, I hate my job then I like it, then I don't know what to do with my life! I felt that way yesterday and today I feel so much better! Oh administration at my work sucks too!
