It’s Official

I am now a Licensed Registered Nurse. I took my state licensing exam last week and passed it. It was the craziest, most anxious day of my entire life and I’m still not sure how I managed to answer all the questions but somehow I pulled it off. Most people know the results within 24 hours. I however, seem to not be most people. My results did not show up for 48 hours leading me to believe I had failed. That was the most depressing 24 hours of my life. Thanks to my husband who is a wonderful Christian man I managed to survive those 24 hours by being reminded that God has a plan and we can survive anything with faith and trust in Jesus Christ. Since that day was also our anniversary, we managed to pull ourselves together and celebrate the best we could. We went to the movies and had a wonderful dinner.

The following day, my mother-in-law called us early in the morning to inform us that she had checked the website and looked me up and there was a license for me. Somehow she didn’t lose hope and we are happy she checked. I definitely was not checking again because I was not going back for more punishment. Brian and I looked for ourselves and when my name came up, we could not believe it. I waited until the office opened and called to verify the results with a human being and sure enough, she was happy to report that I had passed my exam. Praise the Lord!

Anyway, that’s my story. I’m currently working and enjoy it very much. I have a lot to learn but I take it a day at a time. It’s scary, exciting, anxiety-provoking and the most exhausting work I’ve ever done. We’ll see what happens.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!
