Changes

So I feel like everything keeps changing. I'm not complaining (ok, maybe a little), but I am a creature of habit. I like consistency. Actually, I love consistency. However, lately NOTHING has stayed the same.

I have recently moved in with my Grandparents, which for the most part is great. I don't worry about rent, utlities, or food (although I have gained 4 pounds for Grandma's cooking), but it can be a challenge to go from living on your own to living with family. My nursing book calls people like me Boomerange Children. Shoot out on your own then shoot back to your family house.

School... well, school is school. It is hard. It is definately manageable, but it is difficult. A lot of reading, which just takes time management and motivation. And my motivation, is the above. Being able to be indepedent. To be able to support myself comfortable and to not be a finicial burden on family and maybe help them out.

Did I mention hicccccuuuups? Well, I had an endoscopy about a week ago and then a CT scan of chest two days ago. I was really nervous about the endoscopy because I wasn't sure how much I would be able to feel. They do sedate you, but they don't knock you out. They put you in a twlight zone. However, it was fine. Other than a sore throat for a day or two after and a vague memory of hitting on my doctor, it was fine. The endoscopy revealed that I have a hitial hernia and acid reflux disease. The CT was to rule out anything else that could cause over a year of chronic hiccups. The CT was normal. So I go in on Wed to dicuss treatment options. I really hope it doesn't include taking a pill everyday because that just seems like such a hassal so we will see.

Eh, those are the "what's new" in my life. I am sure there will be more changes to come and I will keep you posted as they occur.
