I started nursing school a few weeks ago. So now my days are extremely long and tiring. I get up at 5:30am to be able to leave the house at 6:40 every morning for my 8am classes. If I'm not in lectures, I'm in labs or studying. I made a friend already and we have been getting together and studying between classes.

I have anatomy/ physiology, microbiology and nutrition. Each lecture is between an hour to an hour and a half 2-3 times a week depending on the class. Then there are the labs that are 2 hours each once a week. I'm starting to think my brain is melting. Just 2 and a half more years to go.

On the home front things are so so. A lot of tension between hubby and me. I don't know what's happening. He's started talking to an ex-girl friend from long long ago. I don't know what to make of it. Dont know why now after 18 years he feels the need to talk to her? And yeah she's pretty and skinny. Hubby is always talking about my weight now. He saw I ate a breakfast sandwich this morning ( all of 280 calories ) and the next thing out of his mouth was all I was getting for lunch was a salad. All it did was make me binge and purge when I got home. I get really tired of hearing I'm fat. My Elhers-Danlos is getting worse. My foot is so messed up it's extremely painful just to walk across the room, and right now I have a dislocationed finger that is still healing. I'm lucky now though at school they have notes for each of my classes I just have to print off. So now I don't have to write and take notes. It's saved me so much. Such a wonderful thing.

So that's where I've been these last 2 months. I'll try and read here and there when I have time. I hope everyone is doing the best they can.

Well that's a good reason to be missing from here! I hope things continue to progress favorably for you. Do good self-care. (((monty girl))))

Thanks Sky, I'm taking a few minutes out from studying for 2 exams I have next weeks. Breaks are good. I'm trying to do good self care. I go to the student health center and work out for 30-45mins everyday on the exercise bike. I've lost 7lbs in 3 weeks now and I feel better. Just that little bit of exercise recharges me so when I get home I feel well enough to study. I also do a yoga class a couple times a week.
I have 54 more lbs to go to my goal weight of 120. I've set a goal to lose 10lbs by my birthday towards the end of next month. Fingers crossed.
