pee and lists and clinicals - OH MY

hiya. i've just about survived another week. hoping i make it just a few more days!

a few things i think you all should know.

1. i got nuggie pee on me. what's the big deal you may be asking yourself?? well, i scooped her up from her crib about 2 min before it was to time to drop her off with the sitter and you know how you wring out a wet towel or something? yea, when i scooped her up the pee pee squished out and ran all down my leg. nice. a whole new way to get baby pee on me. how'd her diaper even get that full anyhow?!? i think she's got a mini water cooler stuffed away in that crib of hers.

2. we had a lovely little workshop at school this week about finding joy. how many times have i heard that? about a jillion. but maybe there is something there? something more than just feeling happy... like deciding to live a joyful life no matter the craziness life is throwing your way. i'm still sorta mulling this all over, but she suggested we dream out our very best version of life - i'm gonna think on this some more... what would my perfect life look like?

3. i'm seriously obsessing over pinterest.. really. who knew such a fabulous little site existed! so far i have found about a gazillion crafty holiday snacks to make... wish i could just make little foodies all day long. i've ALSO picked the most super fun 30th bday theme for bub and i. a totally 80's celebration! so it's not the most original idea ever, BUT seeing as how both bub and i were born in that fabulous decade i thought it would fit! so pinterest has helped me gather all sorts of totally tubular ideas for our big soiree!

4. i had orientation for clinicals today. i'm gonna be on an orthopedic floor and our instructor is amazing! she's seriously the sweetest person. so much anxiety has been lifted away! we also had our head-to-toe checkoffs and i passed that too. whew! i feel like i can breath a little!

happy wednesday lovelies!

RE: #2
It works! About 4 or so years ago, I decided to "never let the struggles of life interfere with the pleasures of living" and haven't looked back since. It seems crazy, but you really can change how you feel about life by only changing your way of thinking. I've recently been told that I make the world's best lemonade (with the lemons life keeps throwing at me). It is so fulfilling to go to bed each night, knowing that I made that day the best that it could be.

I was totally thinking about that same idea for our birthdays! Not sure it will happen though... I was thinking more along the lines of 80's prom :o)
