HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY AMERICA!!
Hope everybody enjoyed their 4th of July. I started it off with waking up & arriving at work late. The floor had only 2 techs, including me. So I had 13 patients to myself...including doing all the beds & baths on my own, passing trays, keeping up with all intakes & outputs, drawing blood....name it you got it. So.....by the time I got off of work I was damn tired.
But....I was excited cuz I had a trunk full, and I mean a TRUNK FULL of fireworks that were just calling out to me that whole day while I was at work. Quang, me, Kimmie, Uncle Huy-ner, & Thuy + Quang's friends went to buy fireworks the weekend before the 4th. Went to a Black Cat warehouse where they hooked them up with a deal. They bought $600 worth of fireworks = 3 carts full of fireworks. For that they were able to get $200 worth of fireworks for free. So.....in the end spent only $400 on a SHIeT load of fireworks!!
I was tired as hell, and sore from work, but.....I had soooooo much fun making everything explode. Burned my finger, but it was well worth it!! Kimmie even lit up fireworks herself. I wish I could have took more pictures but the camera died on me and I didn't have any more batteries.
Gotta give a special shout out to Kimmie's Aunt Thuy. Girlllllll......you are a bad ass aunt. Taking care of Kim since this past Thurs. and the whole weekend. Although she did go to sleep wayyyyy past her bedtime, latest I heard was at 4:30 in the AM!! But...she had a great time with ya'll in Arlington. Such a great time that she didn't want to come home. You definitely show how much you love her, and although she can be a brat sometimes....you know she loves you. She's growing up soooo fast and I'm thankful she has an aunt like you in her life. Somebody I know she will grow to trust and rely on, somebody she'll tell all her secrets to. SO....YOU BETTER LEMME KNOW WHAT THEY ARE WHEN SHE TELLS YOU!! Or I'll beat both your asses!!
I can't believe its already July!!
The summer is just flying by and all I've been up to is work & family. I miss hanging with the friends, but....hopefully we'll get our time before the summer ends.
For the longest I missed spending time with Quang & Kim. Having our family time, but....distance does make the heart grow fonder. Quang has been so supportive of me working this summer and has really been a great daddy & bf/hubby. I'm hoping we'll get the chance to take a family trip before the summer ends.
School starts again on Aug. 29. I'm looking forward to the 2nd semester since this will be my OB/Pedi/Neonatal + Medical/Surgical semester. I'm more looking forward to it ending. I'm hoping I'll be able to handle working + going to school. Ugh.....Aug. 29 is just creeping closer & closer much faster than I had anticipated.
Now then....pictures I've been wanting/needing to update xanga with. Click to enlarge...

Kimmie & Mommy riding a ferris wheel. Yah, you can tell in the 1st pic I was freaking out. It kept turning from side-to-side & I HATE ferris wheels. But of course, had to do it for Kimmie. Look at my cutie patooty grandma, Kimmie's great grandma.
