Days like this...

Days like this make me miss San Diego. Makes me dream of snow storms. Causes me to fantasize about living in an igloo somewhere in the arctic........ It is 107 degrees Fahrenheit today. Yesterday was 106. Tomorrow is a predicted high of 108 degrees. I feel like we live in hell right now. 2 weeks ago, we were in San Diego, where it was a lovely 72 degrees Fahrenheit. We were refreshed with a nice salty breeze off the ocean. Heaven. However, getting through these summer months of AZ is (to me) similar to "toughing through" the miserable winter months I survived when we lived in the Midwest. However, they are 2 different breeds . As the heat doesn't hurt , turn off power , or cause car accidents . It just makes me really sweaty, dehyrated, and sluggish. I can't wait for November!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)

10 Questions

1. What are you really good at? What are you really bad at? Good at ........organizing, listening, geting a lot done in a short period of time, teaching (a new discovering..since my role at work for the past few weeks has been teaching!) Bad at ........taking negative criticism, being nice to people who irritate me, playing team sports 2. Have you ever been in a car accident? What happened? They day I got my driver's permit, I totalled a vehicle by hitting a deer. It really sucked. I also lost control of my car on an icy night in North Dakota while going on a sharp curve. My car turned many times, and I ended up in the ditch. Amazingly...the car didn't roll! 3. Why did you attend your college? I moved to Tucson, where I was considered out of state. The waiting lists for nursing school at the U of A was about 2 years.....and that was just not an option for me. Ryan ended up finding out about Grand Canyon University, which had a nursing program that had a hospital pay
