Wow

Good news...I think!! First off...we are both feeling better! No more vomiting. No more "feeling like we're dying". Good times! NCLEX is behind me. It shut off at 75 questions. I was the 1st person in the room to leave. Kind of an eerie and awkward feeling...to be honest. The test could be 360 questions, or 75. It all depends on how you are doing.

Just kidding...if for some God-awful reason I fail - I can always retike it. ....in 45 days after paying $700 MORE dollars that I don't have ;)  (but that won't be happening!) In all honesty, I was feeling pretty confident. But my husband & I got some excellent "bonding time" last night. We got the stomach flu together. How. Effing. Cute. Yeah, not happy. His flight for California leaves tomorrow morning (for work). So we both need to get better fast. Or we're
