Overwhelmed

Do you ever just feel overwhelmed? That's where I am at right now. I feel like there is so much to do and not near enough time to do it. Clinicals started yesterday, as if I didn't already have enough to do! So now with that added, that took away two days that I used to use for studying. So I am now very stressed having lost those two days of studying, well I only had them for 2 weeks, but it was nice while it lasted and I have a test approaching tomorrow that I feel very unprepared for. I am just to the point that I cannot currently wrap my mind around any more new pieces of information. I had a study group with 3 other girls from school tonight for pharmacology after clinicals and when we were done we felt like we got nothing out of it because we are all so burnt out it just felt like things went in one ear and out the other! I can only hope and pray that when I sit down to take my test at 1 tomorrow something will look familiar, something enough for me to get a 75% and pass my test. When will we find the time to fit in all of this studying on top of these extra 15 page papers they want us to do and turn in every week and a half now? Again, like I didn't already have enough to do? Come on people, I know this is nursing school but aren't we supposed to come out alive? So needless to say if you can't tell I am very stressed out right now and I would greatly appreciate any and all prayers.

And oh yeah on top of being stressed already, I volunteered to keep my best friends foster girls ages 1 and 2 for the weekend so that they can go out of town for their anniversary. So we get these two beautiful girls tomorrow night and have them until Sunday night. Which I don't mind because I love them to death, I just wish I wasn't stressed out already! But oh I am sure come Monday I will be very stressed because oh you guessed another test, and the hardest one of the semester at that, awaits me on Monday! And I have to try to find to study while playing mom for the weekend! Should be fun :)

Sorry for venting but I really needed to tonight! Thanks for listening and thanks for all of your support and prayers in advanced. They really are appreciated.
