I want to start off by apologizing to my few followers about the long silence. I seem to have less and less time these days.
The holidays have come and gone. At the nursing home we have lost many of our dear ones. Some have moved on to more independent living while others have gone home to our Heavenly Father. Among these were two ladies that I had the pleasure of knowing. Both died peacefully after long struggles and they will be missed. I realized that when we cry for those we lose, we do not actually cry for them but for ourselves and for our having lost their sweet smiles in our daily life.
I have finally begun CNA school. For the next three weeks I will learn the ins and outs of being an actual Certified Nurse Aide. We have to cover so much information in such a short time that my mind is having difficulty staying focused. It makes me wonder if I am truly prepared to begin nursing school in July. What I do know is that with this first step, my career truly begins. It can be assumed that for the better part of the next year and a half, I will be a student, while at the same time trying to work enough hours to keep my family afloat. I am scared. I ask for your prayers in this journey.
