I never write anymore....


I don't know why. I feel like maybe I have nothing interesting enough going on in my life to actually record it here, but that is the furthest thing from the truth. I actually have a lot going on in my life so maybe for the sake of blogging, I will write about it all.


It's October, my favorite month of the year. It's breast cancer awareness month and I am an October baby. I will celebrating my 24th birthday next week. Maury and I will be having dinner this Saturday with my family and then next week I am flying to be with him and celebrate with our friends. It's going to be a better birthday than last year, I can say that much for sure :)


Once October is over, you know what that means. THE 3-DAY!!!!!!!! The most challenging and rewarding weekend of my life. Maury's sister and I, Meredith, will be going it alone this year. Normally we have her husband and Maury holding our hands the whole way, but this year they aren't able to make it. So maybe we will just hold each others hands, haha.


My relationship is better than ever and we are inching closer and closer to marriage every day. I am so excited. He told me a few weeks ago that he was going to work hard and start saving up to by me some new "hardware." I asked what that meant (I totally knew, I just wanted to hear him say it) and he squeezed my left ring finger. I got butterflies :)


Nursing school is going exceptionally well. I am officially a level 3 student and loving it. We just finished our Quality of Life rotation which was really hard. It was a lot of death and end of life care. I met a 40 year old woman with stage 4 ovarian cancer. She was such an inspiration to me. I cried the whole way home from meeting her. She was extraordinary and changed my life.


Now we are on to OB!!! I can't wait to deliver my first baby, I am so excited. I am sure there's nothing like it. What's even more exciting is that one of our clinical days is on my birthday, so the baby and I will share a birthday. That will be so special. I can't wait.


And to top it all off, I am writing a book. Yep, that's right, a real live book. Stay tuned for updates.


Happy Fall!!
