I love my family and my friends!!

About Me

I am a nursing student at Lansing Community College in Lansing, MI. I never would have thought I would find myself back in school 15 years after getting my BA, but here I am. I am so glad I took the jump too, and other than feelings of "oh no can I really do this??" now and then, I am really feeling like I am in the right place. I naturally love to care for others, and along with my social work backround I feel like this will be a good fit for me. I'm honestly not sure what area of nursing I will end up working in, but I have a few semesters so I'm not going to worry about it yet. I am also married(going on 16 years this fall), and I have three beautiful children. I am so proud of everyone in my family, and I love spending time with them. My idea of fun is watching a sporting event that one of my kids is in, taking in a movie with my husband, or just hanging out with my family and friends. I am also really close to my mom and see her alot. My faith is also a priority in my life.

My Interests

Family, friends, gardening, sewing, crafts, crochet, reading, computer, learning to quilt, going to work on the exercise thing too this year. I keep saying this.

I'd like to meet:

I like talking to other nursing students.

Music:

I like a wide variety of music from oldies but goodies from the 60's, 70's and 80's to classical, the blues, definitely rock but that's what I meant when I said oldies. I like some of the newer stuff, but what choice do I have with three kids. I watch American Idol, although not as much this year. Might have something to do with nursing school?

Movies:

My favorite movie is the Passion of the Christ. It's not an easy movie to watch, but I have seen it many times. I guess it makes me want to be a better person. Old movies that I enjoy are "A tree grows in Brooklyn," "Going my Way," "It's a Wonderful Life," and...hmmm I can't think of them now. Maybe I'll come back and add some later. Other favorites: "Office Space," "Tombstone," "Groundhog Day," " Rudy," "Hoosiers," "Jerry Mcquire,".... and I know there are alot more, because we love movies at my house.

Television:

"House", "Law and Order," " ER," "CSI," "America's Most Wanted," "Medium," and "Ghost Whisper(just saw it for the first time the other day)"

Books:

My favorites? Harry Potter and the Chronicles of Narnia. Wait, didn't I just say I'm that old? Well, now I say I am that young! :-) My son wants me to read the Lord of the Rings, but I did see the movies. I did read The Hobbit though, and it was cool. Okay, those were my favorites, but what do I actually read these days? Nursing books!

Heroes:

My heros are people who have made a positive impact on my life and in the lives of those that I care for. First and foremost, my husband. He is my best friend, and much more. I have so much respect for him. My parents, my grandparents, my children, and many other family members have been the heros in my life. oh, and lets not forget Wonder Woman lol. My childhood hero. yes, I'm that old.
