project life 2013 : weeks 44 – 45

December 23, 2013

I’m about a month behind on Project Life right now but I’m just going to keep plugging along. My plan is to keep up with my photos and notes, work on it when I can, and then get caught up on maternity leave! I have two completed spreads to share in the next couple weeks and here’s the first one. Above you’ll see the actual spread, encompassing the dates of October 28 to November 10. But actually there is an insert in between for the nine days of a photo a day project I made it through. :) Below is the spread with the insert. I got really lazy about taking photos for awhile! Need to improve on that! The…

day in the life of an infusion nurse

December 16, 2013

I have another post about my job as a chemo infusion nurse for you! This one is a little less serious, as I wanted to give some detail about what my job actually involves. This might seem way too detailed, but I assure you I am summarizing vast amounts of activity here and only hitting the high points! It’s a busy place. The following took place on a Monday, and it actually was one of my less busy days. One of our infusion suites. 7:30 // I arrive and Patient #1 is there, to get the chemo regimen ABVD. I access her port and draw labs. We were not sent new orders from the doctor’s office, so I start making…

list 11 : at my best when

December 2, 2013

For Thanksgiving I had a four-day holiday weekend and lots of plans to be incredibly productive. Unfortunately, on Friday night yet another stomach bug hit me and I was awake all night throwing up, so Saturday all my plans went out the window and I laid in bed all the live-long day. It got me to thinking about the conditions necessary for me to be at my very best, and this is what I came up with. I’ve had lots of sleep… and a cup of coffee It’s morning I get some alone time to recharge The house is clean My family is happy I spend time in prayer I snapped this picture on Sunday  morning when I was NOT…

holiday minibook plans

November 29, 2013

Hey friends, hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! We had a full and happy day eating way too much as we had two dinners to fit in. I’m happy that Meredith was in a wonderful mood despite not napping and having lots of treats. :) Today I’m holing up at home but trying to be super productive! I’m so thankful for my parents who brought our new bedroom dresser over today. It was free from a friend – hooray. Then my mom played with M. while my dad helped install new curtain rods and switched out all the outlets in our bedroom. Slowly but surely we are making progress! David and I get a date night tonight (yay!!) but…
