<br>
<br>
No, seriously now, I presented my story last night in front of about 30 people.
<br>
<br>
It went well.
<br>
<br>
I ad libbed a little bit.
<br>
<br>
It turned out that I was the only speaker that showed up last night, as the other one was sick.
<br>
<br>
I recieved a lot of positive feed-back.

<br>
It felt good.

			<description><![CDATA[ I feel like I have been neglecting my friends here as of late.  When things are going well, it is easy to forget what things are like when they are not going
well.  For all the times when things were hard for me and you guys were here for me, I want to be here for somebody else who may need me.  Even though I am
working I always have the fear in the back of my mind of what may happen later.  I feel like this is all too good to be true and things like this rarely seem
to happen to me.  Maybe I... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I had a fun weekend.  I took my daughter to her first movie.  We almost made it to the end, but she dropped her drink on the floor and got really upset.  We
only missed the last ten minutes or so which is pretty good for a two year old.  We had a cook out on the 4th which was nice.  I made shish-ka-bobs  for the
first time and they were really good.  Today I took her rollerskating for the first time.  She was scared but had fun too.  I was so proud to share something
that I loved as a child... ]]></description>

<br>
<br>
It is actually 2 jobs.  One is two Saturdays a month in a town not far from my house and the other is a 4 day a week job farther away but with incredible
benefits, which is almost unheard of in the field.  It works out well.  I will have friday through sunday off, except twice a month when I work saturdays.  I
like having this other job because it will give me experience in another atmosphere to learn.  In the full time job I will... ]]></description>

caps, they are so cute.  Maybe I can figure out how to post a pic to show you guys.  I can&#39;t believe how fast this past year has gone.  Friday I will take
my local anesthesia exam then I&#39;m done, can&#39;t believe I&#39;m saying that!  Thanks for all the support over the last few years.  Going back to school

			<description><![CDATA[ I spent most of the day in bed today.  Everything is finally hitting me.  Even though everything with school is so great I can&#39;t seem to be happy.  More
things happened today relating to my exhusband&#39;s family that really threw me for a loop. I am just feeling like I want to be alone and just want to sleep. 
I know it&#39;s a bad sign but I have to be strong and get through it.

			<description><![CDATA[ Hope everybody is doing ok.  Not much going on for me right now.  I got to spend a bunch of time outside yesterday, which was nice.  I love being outdoors. 
Today I am going out visiting with my daughter.  Tomorrow is mothers day and Genna picked out something for me all by herself.  I can&#39;t wait to find out
what it is.  It could be interesting to see what a 2 month old thinks is the perfect gift for her mom.

everything is in there.  I am not really nervous anymore.   The thing I was most nervous about was forgetting something that I would need and I&#39;m pretty
sure I&#39;m all set now.  Wish me luck, tomorrow is a really big day for me.  If I pass this I&#39;ll be one step closer to rejoining society.  It has been so

was.  I talked to him on the computer for a while trying to convice him to tell me where he was so I could come help.  He wouldn&#39;t tell us, got off the
computer and we called the cops.  The cops couldn&#39;t find him as of last night.  Mike said that his friend logged on to AIM this morning so he didn&#39;t

			<description><![CDATA[ Today is Saturday and it was so busy!  I took my daughter to an easter egg hunt, we brought easter eggs to some family that she decorated.  We went to lunch
then to a birthday party.  It was hectic but very fun.  It was so nice to see my daughter laughing and playing with other kids.  It was nice for me to talk to
other mom&#39;s too.  I don&#39;t get a lot of outside conversation.  Usually it&#39;s about school.  I don&#39;t have much social time and it is nice when it
happens.

and get the area that my vegie garden will be cleaned up and ready to go.  I don&#39;t know a lot about gardening but there is always a first time.  If I can
get stuff to grow, great if not then I&#39;ll have to get a book or something and try something new next year.  I know it is too early to plant but I am hoping
to get the soil ready... ]]></description>

get much sleep last night so I started out grumpily.  I&#39;m not really a morning person so mornings with little sleep the night before are so much worse. 
Tomorrow, which really is Wednesday my sister is coming up to visit and bringing her new puppy.  I can&#39;t wait to see her, she&#39;s a little chocolate lab
