An accounting of my trials and tribulations at holding down a career in EMS, studying to further that career, and raising a herd of boys. My life might be crazy, but it is all mine!

A while since I have been here
Wow it has been awhile since I blogged. My life is utter chaos right now and I am trying really hard to maintain my sanity. As most of you know, I am enrolled in a paramedic program for the next two semesters. On top of that I am working pretty much full time hours and raising 3 boys. This week I went and did the unthinkable....I got sick. Severe bronchitis with a touch of pneumonia. THAT WAS NOT FUN. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't sleep and the meds they gave helped neither right away. Now for any mom to get sick means family crisis. But when you are a student, a working mom and a mother of multiples, getting sick is a crime. Though my hubby did take off work one day to care for me, which helped out tremendously, I am now two classes behind in PHTLS which means I will probably not get that certification. That disappoints me more than anything right now, as I wanted to do this and do it all. I am trying really hard to keep my chin up and let God lead me through these obstacles, but it gets so hard sometimes. Like tonight, when I find out we have to pay $400 more dollars on our new roof and we don't really have that. Or yesterday, when I had to miss class because I was working and got a call that kept me at the hospital for over an hour and half. Patience is not a virtue I possess, though I really need to be working on that one. Resilience is something I hope to have, but sometimes I feel like that isn't part of me either. Well, I will push through and hope that something is shining at the end of this tunnel....right now all I hear is screaming.
