About Me

Passed the boards. Now I'm an RN. Still learning the ropes on maternity, which is where I think I belong. I've found my Prince, of sorts. I'm engaged to him, his name is Joe and we plan to marry next November. I'm independent, say what I'm thinking and often before I think about how it will sound. (and I get myself in trouble for this!!) Anything you want to know, just ask.
