Nursing School and Valentine's Day
So it's been awhile since I have written on here. I have been super busy with school. I go down to Pueblo every Thursday for my clinical at the Mental Health Institute there. I was on the high-security floor for the first 4 weeks and tomorrow will be my first day on a floor called "circle." It's for patients dually diagnosed with a mental illness and substance abuse. I have to get up especially early tomorrow because my clinical group will be witnessing ECT (electroconvulsive therapy) at 7:30 am, which means we have to be in Pueblo at 7 am. In addition to going to Pueblo for mental health class, I also have a case study due every Monday at 8 am. These case studies are about 10 pages worth of nursing diagnoses, interventions, medications, outcomes, etc. which happens to be about 7-8 hours worth of work. I am also in a health teaching class this semester. The first couple weeks we did a one on one teaching where we are filmed teaching someone in our class something. I taught my partner how to draw up insulin by explaining the steps to him. The following week, we had to teach the same subject with a different domain (cognitive, psychomotor, etc.) so I actually brought in insulin and syringes so that I could show him, then he could show me back. Today we had to teach a powerpoint presentation to about 10 people in the class. I taught on assessing the cranial nerves (which was not the easiest thing to do, considering we only had 10 minutes to teach and there are only 2 nursing major in that class,... everyone else is a health science major and don't have to know about the cranial nerves). I thought I did horrible. My voice was shaky, I was fidgetting, I just get so nervous in front of people. But now that it's done, I feel so much better. Waking up this morning, I thought today was going to be impossible but I made it through! Anyway, so that's what I have been up to with school!
Nick has not blogged on Valentine's Day yet.. I think he wanted to save it for me! So here we go...
So Wednesday the 11th we got Papa Murphys Heart shaped pizza! Yummy!
I wanted to make cupcakes to take to my parents and Aunt Dawn's for Valentine's Day so Friday the 13th I made cupcakes. They have strawberry runts on them!
Valentine's Day morning (and by morning I mean 11:30 am) I woke up to a phone call from my mom. She said Happy Valentine's Day and I told her I was still sleeping. She said, "It's time to get up!" Well anyway, I said I would call her later. So I ended up getting out of bed and I walked in the dining room/living room to see Nick with some chocolate pancakes and eggs, and a HUGE balloon! Oh it was so wonderful!
We had planned on going to Aunt Dawn's that day because her plans were cancelled but Nick said he had to wait for something to be delivered. I figured it was flowers! I was bummed that we weren't going to go up to Castle Rock though but my parents decided to come down here for a while because they had some candy for us and we have cupcakes for them and they hadn't seen the apartment since we unpacked. My flowers arrived while my parents were here... and they weren't just flowers... they were 12 beautiful red roses!
Amazing! :) We were all hungry by then so my parents decided to take Nick and I to Old Chicago for pizza (we could eat pizza every night of the week)! It was so nice of them to do that. It was such a wonderful Valentine's Day! Nick is absolutely the BEST guy ever and I could not live without him!
That's all I have time for! I will catch up later!
Love, Emily
