two weeks to go!

... and we both are very excited! we went and got our marriage liscence and pick it up tuesday. all the other things are checked off my list (including reminding vendors), so now I am just waiting & studying to be prepared for exams (b/c really, who wouldn't love taking finals the day before their wedding?!). sister arrives thursday, ry's best man arrives friday, and the bachelorette & bachelor parties are next saturday (seperate parties!), and i am so excited for all of the festivites to start!
for now, i am working extra hours as i will not be working much after wed for a couple weeks, and studying-- which i am off to now. :)

catch up time

its been awhile! i have been very busy with school, work, wedding stuff and life in general!
-saturday i spent the day on the couch with a stomach virus, ugh. Luckily it was just 24 hours. Unluckily, I had the day off and had planned to get other stuff done!
-today is my last day of clinicals until fall, yayyy! i've had enough of 5am for awhile!!
-today i also finish details with eagle eye & chair covers, pick up my dress, and go with bro to get a hair cut, wahoo!
-plus, its going to be above 80 degrees out.
:)

boo

I came out of work last night, to a flat tire-- boo! Ry came up to help me put the spare on. The flat would not come off, so ry called the towing place he uses for work, and they got it off. Apparently, the tire is also not repairable, so Ry is out buying me a new one, and putting it on before I have to go to work and then laingsburg later today.
Downside: flats really ruin a day and waste a lot of time.
Upside: Ryan is amazing.

That is all.

a breather

Last weekend was so nice because I randomly was not schedule to work, so I had sat & sun completely off! I was able to plant seeds & pots, go garage sailing, study, and catch up on home life, which was really great. saturday night an old friend of mine, alexa, was having her bachelorette party, so i went to lansing for that. we had a lot of fun catching up and enjoying some cocktails as well! sunday i was pretty tired, and even took a nap (first time in almost a year for that!), but it was worth it!
This week in clinical is a bit different for me. Today I get to go observe surgeries in the OR all day, so hopefully they have some good ones scheduled, and tomorrow I get to go to endoscopy, and hopefully more than colonoscopies are scheduled!
The hour drive in the dark to Sparrow at 5:45am is killer twice a week. I have found making and eating my breakfast in the car helps me stay awake a bit easier, and then I stay more full longer before lunch. I have also managed not to spill any breakfast on me, which is also pretty amazing.
This week is week 5 for baker, which means we are halfway done with this term, yayyy. i am ready for a break, for summer, and to get married! :) 5 weeks, and counting. .. .
