March? I think I may have missed Feb!

I kow I keep saying that life is just passing by at a fast rate but really now what happen to Feb? I realized this afternoon that we are already a week into March. Could it be I worked way to many hours? This week between work and preceptor I did 6 12 hour days. Yes that's right 72 hours! Yikes I never in my life thought I could actually make it through a 72 hour work week. Honestly I must say it really wasn't too bad. Yes I miss my family and yes I'm a little pooped tonight and I look like I aged 20 years this week alone but I made it. God is really going to see me through this and I will be able to make it to the end. It probably helps that I really do love my job and get excited to go there everyday. I also love all the people I work with at both hospitals. I have missed spending time at WVMC lately so getting to do my preceptorship there has been awesome! Now if I could only figure out how to get paid for all those preceptor hours. LOL Oh well It's only for a few more weeks. 168 hours to be exact spread out over about 5 more weeks.
I have had so much fun playing Nurse! LOL yes I know I'm not really playing anymore it's for real! I give shots, hang IV's give meds, listen to lung and bowel sounds and I could go on and on. (be thankful I left out details of what I have done ;-))
Haylie and Parker started soccer today. Both hada great time at their games but I think they enjoyed the fact that the sun was out more than anything. Dylan is just ready to play and can't hardly wait until this fall when he gets his chance.
Parker or maybe I should say Tyler had a lottle mishap with the clippers this am. Parker's hair was getting a little shaggy and instead of Tyler waiting for me or taking him to the barber he decided to take it into his own hands and attempt to do it himself. Well he found out that it's not as easy as it looks and PD ended up with a military hair cut and buckets of tears. he is upset because he can't wear a hat at school. Poor guy. I think Tyler may have learned his lesson on hair cutting and why I'm not such a big fan of clipping the boys' hair.
