Blood, books, & potty training : Blue smurf by day....

Four days a week, I am know as a blue smurf. I get called that because of my blue scrubs. Each program at my school has a different color of scrubs. Medical assisting(me) and medical office management(moms) have royal blue scrubs. Pharmacy tech has purple. Sonography has red, and surgical tech has green. But, ma's and moms are the ones who are known as the blue smurfs.

This is my second quarter at Virginia college. Last quarter I only took two classes, so I only had to go twice a week. This quarter I am taking two classes and my first clinical so I go four days a week. I don't mind going four days but there are some downfalls for going four days instead of two. First, there's the obvious. I have school almost everyday of the week like a normal person and not just two times a week anymore. Second, I only have two pair of scrubs (one more is on the way). I wear one pair for the first half of the week and the second pair for the second half of the week. This would be great if I liked scrubs. My scrubs just aren't comfortable. That's probably because they are too big! The third downfall is that my school decided to move this quarter. The building is beautiful and SO much nicer than the one we were previously in, but it's also a heck of a lot farther. Rush hour in Austin is not fun for anyone. But I think my school is worth the hour and a half drive because it truly is the best school for anything medical.

I am starting this quarter off strong with good grades. My goal is to get another 4.0 like I did last quarter. All my classes are still at A's but we also just finished our third week. But, I missed the first day of my math class because I was sick and it brought my grade down to a C!!! It was insane. So these last three weeks I have been working my birthday off to get that grade back up to an A! I did it this week and it only took 5 A's and 5 days of attendance. Geez. All is well.

Ford is super excited to get his apple watch tomorrow. He was sooooo excited when we got home and he tracked the shipping on it. He also made me a bracelet that goes with my blue smurf outfit. I told him I'd keep wearing it! I love it!

I have been taking my dogs on walks recently. Normally we go after dinner. Today I am exhausted so I figured I'd take them for a walk when I go up tomorrow morning before it gets too hot. Milo is LOVING our walks. He gets so excited it's crazy and he prances the entire walk. Lucy HATES walks. She hides under the table like she's in trouble every time I pull the leashes out. Today she was hiding because she thought it was walk time! It was so funny!

Anyway, today was good, but I'm exhausted. I hope you all are enjoying my blog so far. Leave me a comment below!
