Can't Believe It!

I AM FINISHED WITH CLINICALS!!  bah, I can't believe it's finally here!

I was required to do 24 hrs/week of clinical work totaling 1500 hrs for the program and I did it!  Whew!

This has probably been the hardest part of my program but it has definitely been the most useful.  I have learned A LOT! For those of you who don't know how the clinical side works, I was practically working there for free.  I did exams on my own as any Technologist would but I just wouldn't get a paycheck...in fact, I would pay Weber ;)  I am now hired on PRN at the hospital, which allows me to pick up shifts.  So I don't have a schedule, I just help when needed which is great for me since my main concern now is spending time with James.

It has been hard being a mommy and juggling everything, especially clinicals.  But I am so grateful for family and friends who have helped watch James!  Now that it's over I'm afraid I'm going to get bored! :)  I'll have to take on a few new hobbies!

I still have about a week left of class work stuff that I just have to submit online and then my Boards which I will take some time in May.  So I will stay busy for a couple more months studying!
