On Assignment

Ok, I have just finished cramming for my Anatomy & Physiology exam tonight. I'm nervous but I know I will do my best. I have to pick up my kids in an hour and I have yet to write my weekly discussion post for my online communications course. I am in high-gear so I write this brief entry to fulfill another requirement for the online course. Please read on because I know you are all dying to know the answer to these questions :)

Who Am I?
...... How to respond to that one in a blog post? To summarize with words, I am a mother, a student, a volunteer and a wife. I hold in high esteem my relationships with those I love. I am working toward a nursing degree as I believe it will be a fulfilling (and reliable) profession. I love to be outdoors (hurry up, summer!) and enjoy physical activity. I am finding a passion for running as years pass finding me doing triathlons, races and relays. My kids are my first priority and a continuous struggle I balance is parenting vs. self-satisfaction (as all parents do!). Not sure what else to throw in here.

My Objectives and Goals in Life
....... I hope to graduate with a BSN and work in the high risk obstetrics specialty. I hope to work to make my marriage better and better each year all while raising independent, responsible, loving, compassionate, hard-working children. I hope to travel more in the future. I hope to get better at gardening every year. I will work hard to remain as physically and mentally fit as I can.

My Objectives and Goals for This Blog
....... Like a lot of moms, I over-commit to things such as volunteering with the kids' schools, managing school and home responsibilities with activities "for pleasure". I find each of my investments intrinsically rewarding but struggle with not much free time left over each day. I am always "running" and can always squeeze "one more thing" in. This blog is going to capture how I spend my time and manage to get it all done. This blog will (hopefully) convey that guiding and shaping new little people is a full time job, and that being part of a community is a way to do that.

Where My Readers can get ahold of me?
....... Please leave me a comment or send me an email

Peace out!

  1. I think you have far more than a full-time job on your hands! But from a I have learned about you, you are more than capable. Excellent first post. I'm interested to hear more about how you better juggle your life, and do so with a smile on your face. Thank you so much.
