I started my CNA class yesterday afternoon. It's from 3:00-9:00 July 13th-August 4th. Super fast. I love it. I can't wait to get into the hands on learning stuff I just wish CNA's did more. It's funny because I'm already certified on stuff I won't even be able to do as a CNA like administer medication. I guess I'll just have to work up the chain. I really like learning I've decided. I love having a backpack and carrying books and stethoscopes. It's a scholarship program for military spouses that's making this course and everything in it available, thank goodness, because I wouldn't have been able to do it any other way. Yay for scholarships! We ordered our scrubs and should get them within a couple days, and we'll actually work in hospitals or nursing homes for the last three days of the class. The class is also a trial class, and if it's a success then it will become a permanent option for spouses to participate in. It was a class full of about 18 other girls. Tomorrow we're doing CPR so I'll be able to recertify on that. It's three in the morning and I just sent Kev off to work. He was voluntold to wash a plane so he had to be there at 3:30 and since I got up and made him breakfast ( a protein shake) I can't get back to sleep. Oh well, I'm going to be tired tonight.
