A year went by. Wow.

I didn't post for over a year. Not that anyone really reads my blog at the moment, but I'd like it to become something more for myself, so we'll work on it again. And I'm avoiding homework. In the last year: I survived my last year of nursing school. I graduated from nursing school. I got a nursing job. I started my last year of nursing school. Again (BSN program). I got a different nursing job, and kept the old one if they were desperate. I stopped cleaning. I stopped folding laundry. I stopped sleeping much. I got grouchier. I wish I wasn't still in school, I just don't care anymore. I love my job. I miss my boys. Derek leased out part of his business to someone else. He is working less (hooray!) and home more (double hooray!) He still works too much and is too stressed. He watches football with my boys, and they love it. He does laundry. He doesn't fold it either. He does dishes. Mostly. Evin is almost twelve. This frightens me. He's acting teenagerish. Which also frightens me. I can still tackle him, so we're ok. He's in sixth grade, and bored. We're excited (and scared) for Jr. High. He would hide in his bedroom for hours if I let him. He reads constantly. Isaac and Kaleb are nine now. Isaac is still very organized. Most of the time. He loves school. He does extra jobs for me. He wants to play with friends all the time. Kaleb is turning into a miniature Derek in the way he thinks. He still loves school. He wants to help Daddy fix cars. He tries to figure out how to put things together. He is so sweet and loving. Most of the time. Ian is seven now. My baby's seven! He still jumps everywhere he goes. He still gets sweaty playing video games. He stays up too late because he's the youngest. He tackles his brothers all the time. He loves school. I got so lucky. My husband helps me and puts up with my sleepiness and grouchiness right now. I don't clean, mostly don't cook, and never seem to get anything done. My boys work hard with proper motivation, and are good when they have to be somewhere else because I'm working and in school. In less than six months, I'll be done with school and only working, and life had better be calmer.
