Quit my nursing job. Full-time momming right now. Bedside was sucking my soul. Already feel 10x happier.

[Summer P. @summerbp]

Didn't realize how unhappy I was in TX. So, loving VA. Feel younger. #writing again. Happy family!

[Summer P. @summerbp]

I did it! I got all my letters! MSN, RN, CMSRN! #gradschool #Nursing

Cat doesn't get that at my current level of stress, his nightly caterwauling is about to equal his death.

[Summer P. @summerbp]

Being a super high-achieving student when faced with page limits and time constraints and extreme postpartum fatigue = so much stress.

Passed my #CMSRN exam today! Now just 4 more weeks until my #MSN is done! #youcandoeet

[Summer P. @summerbp]

@Kati_Kleber Thanks! Good luck! I'm sure you'll love it.

[Summer P. @summerbp]

@Kati_Kleber Nursing Education! It's been a long road, but I have learned so much! Very proud to be almost done.

[Summer P. @summerbp]

6 more weeks until my #MSN is finished, and I have senioritis like nobody's business. With 4 major projects to go, still... #gradschool

[Summer P. @summerbp]

Just #hitsend on my capstone! Only 9 more weeks until my MSN!

[Summer P. @summerbp]

When your are THIS CLOSE to finishing your capstone paper & your brain wants to stop being brain... #gradstudentproblems

[Summer P. @summerbp]

@Kati_Kleber Have some basic cooking stuff + baby stuff with you in the car. Movers get delayed for days, sometimes... (GA-->TX)

[Summer P. @summerbp]

Today's academic maneuvers made possible by #babywearing and a yoga ball...

[Summer P. @summerbp]

Starting my #MSN capstone research today. First chunk due in 3 weeks. This would be a great time for 7-wk-old to start STTN... #gradstudent

@Kati_Kleber Gentle parenting techniques for toddlers also work well for upset patients. Let them express their feelings, acknowledge, reply

[Summer P. @summerbp]

Also managed to #earlyvote with like a 2 second wait at the polls. It was sweet.

[Summer P. @summerbp]

Taking advantage of being on call to try to catch up on #Nanowrimo word count at Panera....and I realize I forgot headphones. ><

[Summer P. @summerbp]

#NaNoWriMo month for picking up extra shifts every week, starting a new PRN job, AND traveling 800 miles for the week of Thanksgiving.

[Summer P. @summerbp]

Spent the past 2 days in #ACLS training and then got suckered into working tomorrow. AND my baby has pneumonia. #sadface

[Summer P. @summerbp]

So close to being done with my MSN I can taste it. Wait...that's just coffee... #NursingSchoolProblems #gradstudentproblems
