I took my NCLEX-RN today...now we wait. It has been a long haul and I have often thought the end would never come; funny, it isn't the end! I have never been more excited to be done with it all and can't help but wonder what I will do with myself now. Early mornings, late nights, studying every day, and wondering if the light at the end of the tunnel isn't just a train moving at lightening speed to squash me like a ripe tomato! I really am done for now, but am more antsy than I ever thought I would be. There is plenty to do here at home and the extra time with the kids is heaven sent, but when everyone goes to bed for the evening...here I sit. No research, no care plans, no drug cards, just me and it feels so overwhelming!

Maybe I'll hit the library now for something other than a research project or a journal article to critique. Time to clean out that hall closet that happens to be growing winter coats and boxes of cub scout gear, take lots and lots of evening walks so I can enjoy the night sky, and splash in the puddles after a great Kansas thunderstorm! WOW! Isn't it great?!
