Welcome to Stress City

Hi, I'm Beth your mayor.

Somehow I have a big test and my huge assessment paper due within two days of each other. In addition to that our not yet unpacked house is just sitting here, mocking my lack of time to unpack. I feel like I am living in chaos and it is not helping me focus on my work for school.

I worked 3 hours on my paper today and hope to work some on it each day and finish it Friday. Starting Friday evening I will study for my test next Wednesday. It feels good to have a plan but executing it will be tricky. When I am home of course the boys expect me to be available to them, as it should be. So that means I trek back to school to study (or I could go to our empty rental house...hmmm).

I spent a little time tonight watching a movie to veg out after the others went to bed. Part of me feels guilty about it but another part knows I will not have time to do much other than study later this week until Wednesday at 10am, so I guess it was okay.

I know I will get through this, I am just tired of the (seemingly) never-ending stress associated with nursing school. Can't wait until after finals week!
