Sleep, Work, Repeat

These past few days I feel like I have lived at the hospital. I actually got here early for my shift and too a nap in my car! I know this is what I am supposed to be doing but once I pass my test I'll be less stressed. Because every time I work and sleep, im not studying! It's just a vicious cycle. For anyone out there who is religious, please say a prayer for me and passing my boards. I'm not sure how much longer I can kill myself like this. Prayers are much appreciated! 

Ugh So Sick

Last night before I left work I started to feel sick. I used the bathroom and was better. Well driving home I got that feeling in my stomach and I hurt so bad. I tossed and turned all night long because of how much stomachs pain I had. I thought I was going to end up at the hospital as a patient Instead of a employee. Finally around 6am I woke up with the overwhelming nauses feeling, and I got sick. I think I got the stomach bug from a client at work. But I was misreable all day at work. Anything I tried to eat or drink went right through me. So my diet today consisted of gingerale and pepto bismal. Yumm 

Lake Community??

As you know, I have been househunting lately and my realtor suggested looking in a town called Montville. So I went online and instantly realized houses are cheaper there, same quality, same house space, just the prices are lower than where I have been looking. Well I found this lake community and there are two houses, there one is close to the water and the other one is a few streets away. Both way under the prices of all the other houses I had looked at before. I am currently going to hold off I'm going to see them. I want to wait until when I am closer to being approved for a mortgage that way if I really like that I would actually have a chance of getting the house. So for now I am keeping an eye on the houses along with looking for other ones that come up in any lake community in the area. Mark and I both agree that it would be so fun to live in a lake community. His sister does right out and they love it.  I hope that someday I will be able to as well :) 

Work!

Oh my goodness have I been busy. Between working doubles, so a total of 16 hours in one day at the hospital, studying and working at my other job I feel like I have no free time. I pretty much work and then come right home to sleep that is all. That is also why I have not been on to blog lately. But work is going good I am actually in overtime this week so that will be a good paycheck. Plus tomorrow I get to have my day off so I will be studying all day and then I will go into work at 11 to do the overnight. Plus this weekend I will have a few days off and I am going up to Massachusetts to see Mark. I am very excited about that! He actually came down this past weekend and celebrated Easter with my family it was such a nice day together. He and Michael played basketball and then they actually want up to the courts, it was nice seeing them play together. He really is becoming part of the family. But anyways am currently driving to work, thank God my phone has a talk to text feature or el...

Tax Day Nightmare

In the past I have used TurboTax online and filed my federal taxes for free, it was easy! All you did was put in your W-2's, went through a bunch of steps and then just hit complete and file. Well this year I not only had W-2s but I also had a 1099 to complicate things. I tried to do the online for free but because I had a 1099 I had to pay for the extended version. Before I paid I tried seeing if I could do it right and no matter what, something was going wrong. I could not find where to put the ductions for my mileage for the 1099s job. Online on H&R Block it said that students would have to pay $30 to come in and have a tax assessor do their taxes for them. She wanted to charge me $150! Even though it said online only $30. I went to my moms guy today who does hers and he helped me do the on line one. Turns out I have to pay 486, not 271 like I had thought, and of course- I don't have that in my account. So I decided to print it and write a check since I will be paid soon...

Where Were You???

Today, the one year anniversary of the Boston bombing, I've been seeing a bunch of posts on Facebook of people saying where they were when it happened. Well here is my story: I was in Boston for that whole weekend because it was my boyfriend's (at the time) 21st birthday on Monday April 15th. After I made him breakfast we headed down to his nearest green line stop, which the marathon happened to be going by. Our plans for his birthday were to meet two of my sorority sisters by coply square for lunch since they were down by there, then we would go out at night when his family comes up. As we are waiting for the train one of the sisters I am going to meet calls and tells me that we should probably stay put because two loud explosions just went off. Well my BF at the time said we were fine and to just get on the next train that came. I was on the train using my phone trying to look up what had just finished when i saw the words "boston bombing" come up on my screen. I sa...

Bored at Work

I am sitting here waiting for it to be 8:30 so I can go home and see Mark. He has come down from MA to spend a few days with me. I can not wait to spend the warm, beautiful day with him tomorrow. I am thinking we can go to guilford and drive by a few houses then drive by the ones in Westbrook. While we are in Westbrook I'm thinking of Bills Seafood for lunch so we can sit outside. Who knows, but I def want to enjoy the game since I'm not too sure when I'll see him next because next weekend is Easter. But he is currently at my house with my dad and brother. We are all starving but I can't make anything until I get home since dinner is in my car. Fun fun! Let's just hope that this half hour goes by quickly.
