Quick Prayer Request!

Hey y'all. If you could spare a moment tomorrow at around 11:00, that would be awesome. I'm taking the TEAS V entrance exam for nursing school. It's a general standardized test with reading, math, science and grammar usage. I have to score at the very least a 51% in order to be an eligible candidate. Still, I want to do the very best I can do. Since I don't have any medical background, I need all the help I can get when it comes to being accepted into the program. If it comes down to me and one other person and they have a higher TEAS V score than I do... well.. that won't be good.

I'm only slightly freaking out about it.


I've been using a practice workbook to prepare for the test. I'll go through pages and think it's all relatively easy. Then I'll get to a problem (usually in the math section) and I'll just forget everything I've ever been taught in my whole entire life.


It doesn't help that I'm such a perfectionist. I mean I seriously think I need some therapy or something. I told Ryan I would be happy if I got an 85%. He then said, "You and I both know that isn't true." And it's not. But I shouldn't expect to get a 100% on something you can't really "study" for. Especially since I'm still in the middle of a very difficult summer class. And I have kids that need food.

This summer has flown by. I hate that I can't relax and play with my kids and watch them splash in the pool. In between bouts of studying about the endocrine system I get all weepy and look outside at my boys frolicking in the summer sun.



I've only had a few nervous breakdowns.

and yes, they were ugly Meg Ryan breakdowns
My husband has been awesome through this whole thing. I REALLY do not know what I would do without him!


Hey, uh.. can you cook supper, clean the living room, bathe, diaper and generally keep the children alive? Oh, and prevent me from jumping off the Bond Bridge?

Soooo anyways. I should NOT have wasted all this time looking up hilarious GIFs. Damn you, Internet!!!

If you could please send up a quick prayer tomorrow I would greatly appreciate it!
