Everyone has been so quiet! I'll try to start things up again.

Have you all seen this video. I got a chuckle out of it.

I got a chuckle out of it myself!!!


Things are okay around here. We looked at a house this week that Paul liked, but I didnt like it. It didnt have a basement. It also would need a lot of repainting and I'm not a painter either. I'd rather just wait until we have enough to build a house that we like instead of settling for one that already built that needs work.

I did very well on my exam yesterday. I'm glad i'm doing well in this class. It historically has a 70% fail rate. There are 55 in my class now. I already know a good chunk that are still doing poorly after this second test. I hope they are able to get themselves out of their hole and atleast pass and that I myself can keep up the good work.

The youngest two kids started school chior last week and already my daughter has been chosen to sing in a special performance. The youngest son we've really had to get on him lately about his homework. The rule is he cannot go outside and play unless his homework is done first, so he rushes through it, and then does a sloppy job, so we have to make him redo it. The oldest son, just got a grade report and he's got all A's at this time and we are very proud. He's still running 7 miles a day with his cross country team. The other two are still playing soccer as well.

I'm excited that my Theta chapter is having a reunion next month. It's for Thetas that were there in the late 70's and early 80's. I asked the coordinator of the reunion if I could still come as well to meet other alumnae and to put faces with names that I know from being the local alumnae chapter corresponding secretary. They said for me to still come because the more the merrier So I'm going to a couple of their activities.

Aside from all of that we are in the process of planning our second annual casino party, decorating for fall/halloween, and already started xmas shopping. Our sisters are done(his and mine make 3), our mothers are done, 1 neighbor and two friends are done. My husband is half done unknown to him . Now we have one cousin, three more friends, our dads, our three nephews, 1 gramma, and our three kids left Basically xmas gifts and holiday decor for the current season and early xmas is where my paychecks are going lately I probably should cut back on the decor, but I come from a long line of "decorating fools" for seasons and holidays and ESPECIALLY Christmas, so it's hard not to keep the decorating tradition alive

I talked to my mom for a long time this morning and she said she's already started HER christmas shopping. Talk about being prepared. Everybody at work is already counting down shopping days till christmas. It's not even halloween yet! Man, this year has FLOWN by.

BTW, I thought that was a cute, creative video. I love "If Theta was a letter of the alphabet...what letter of the alphabet...would THETA...be?"

"Um, Theta IS a letter of the alphabet."

Love it. Those girls looked like they had fun making that!

Well, hope everyone is doing well and I hope you all have an amazing weekend.

Thanks for posting that video! I thought it was really cute.

I'm also glad to hear I'm not the only one who comes from a long line of "decorating fools" Haha, I feel like my paychecks lately have been going toward things for decorating too, and I'm also proud to say that I've gotten an early start on Christmas shopping.

Things have been going pretty well here. Trying to stay occupied, and fortunately things at work have been pretty busy lately, so that keeps me focused.

Aaaand, I know some of you already know this, but I wanted to post here that over in the recruitment forum, there's a brand new Theta! She was a legacy through her mom, which is also very exciting! Hopefully she'll stop in here soon and introduce herself, but I wanted to make sure you all knew the exciting news.

Hope things are going well for all of you!

I thought the same thing! I wanted to post my congradulations to her over here, but I thought I'd give it time to see if she'd introduce herself! I'm so exited for her. I LOVED my new member period, and how COOL is it to be sisters with your mom! My mother is greek as well, but we don't share Theta. Here comes some wishful thinking, but when/if I have a daughter...

Theta love!

This week spelled another week of drama for ole Mary

Last Saturday was horrible, HORRIBLE day at work. Litterally every fifteen minutes someone wanted on bedside toilet or on the bedpan. We had one lady with alzheimer's(bad enough because that in itself is a horrible disease process) that wanted on the bedside toilet constantly and then she'd forget why she wanted on there. So because I was dealing with her and others like her, none of my charting got done, so I had to work an extra hour and a half to get it all charted. Then Monday i drive an hour and a half to clinicals only to get told that clinicals were being cancelled so i had to turn right around and come back (so I wasnt happy about getting up at 3:45am to get ready and get there on time and then turn around and come back) so I come home and take a nap only to be awaken by my mother being hysterical. Wasnt out of the ordinary for her but she was going on about my sister's latest actions/sayings which did seem out of the ordinary so I told my mom to stop that and I'd go and see my sister (not expecting things to be half as bad as what my mom claimed). Well they were pretty bad, so we go to UK's ER for a psych evaluation regarding severe postpartum depression for her which we waited in there for 8 hours leaving at close to 1am for them to tell her that they dont have any beds for her at UK but she can go to the psych unit at a hospital in our hometown 2 hours away and she was expected to go there immediately. Well lucky for me, her friend had come up that afternoon to take the baby back to our hometown with her to take care of while my sister got treatment, so my sister just rode with her back to our hometown. But I had to get up 6 hours later to get ready for class, class again on thursday, I worked on the cardiac care unit on friday (whiel I was busy it was a welcome change from the week prior). I went to our hometown yesterday morning to see my sister and the baby and she's doing much better and the baby is doing well too so that's good. They will be releasing my sister sometime this week I think, though she wants to stay in our hometown rather than coming back here. Taht is basically my week in review I went out with my friend Michelle on tuesday night because I needed to get out for a bit so that was enjoyable. Today has been enjoyable as well. My husband and I started the day off at a gun show, sold the handgun we wanted to sell, he bought an airgun, then we left and went to a farmer's market, washed my car, bougth a battery for his car, went to walmart, and then went to change the oil in mine. We then came home and piddled in our garden. We're just now pulling up our carrots and THEY ARE HUGE!!!! Other than my two mile walk in the neighborhood today, that's pretty much it

Now that everything is off my chest I think I'll go and study some nursing stuff. Hope everyone is doing well

Sending you lots of hugs Mary! That's an awful lot on your plate!
I'm glad that things are starting to look up, and I hope they continue to get better.
