Why yes, I AM a FNP!

A couple of hours ago, I was sitting in front of a computer screen at a testing center wondering if I was taking the wrong test because I felt like I missed every single question.  I gathered the courage to hit "End Test' and prepared what I was sure would be "Failed".  But, a survey popped up on the screen next, so I anxiously completed it...and then it went back to the home screen. No passed or failed...just the home screen.  I started to panic, sure that meant I had failed.  I looked at the testing lady & she waved me out of the testing room.  She was holding a piece of paper in her hand, she looked up at me & said "You passed."  A huge wave of relief rushed over me as my knees gave out.  The only thing that kept me from hitting the floor was that I was holding on to the wall.  I gathered my composure and walked out to my car...where I lost it again & started completely freaking out!  I am actually a certified FNP...something I've dreamed about forever & it's actually a reality.  Praise Jesus...all the glory to Him!

The Band Perry

Tuesday night, the Band Perry performed at the MS State Fair.  They are amazingly talented & put on a great show!  Even better, they are from MS!  It was just me & my niece, it was so much fun...it was her first concert & she loved it!  It was just as much fun to watch her as it was to watch the actual show.  Concerts are about the only time when I really dislike being short...it almost never fails unless I'm right at the stage, I end up not being able to see well.  Since my niece is little, she stood in a chair the whole time so she could see.  Here are a few pics from the concert...I shot some videos, but I haven't uploaded them from my phone yet.  I am not a photographer by any means tho.

In my true random style...

I haven't blogged in a while.  I haven't really felt that I've had anything worth blogging about.  But here goes an entry just because I feel like I need to check in here.  I've recently become super-addicted to Pinterest. It's awesome & I've found so many cute ideas...now I just need to put down the computer long enough to do some of them.

Tonight I tried my first idea that I got from Pinterest...homemade cheese sticks!  They were awesome & simple!  Just took pre-packaged string cheese & battered them with flour-egg & milk mixture-& Italian bread crumbs, then fried them.  I will definitely be making that a lot!

Speaking of fried stuff, the Mississippi State Fair started last week...and I haven't been yet.  I love the fair, but sadly this year, I don't really have the money to go.  The  fair food is the best part of the fair!  It's so not good for you, but so delicious, as most things are! But there are other reasons to go to the fair...like the concerts on the Midway.  Tomorrow night The Band Perry will be performing there, so I am taking my awesome niece to the show.  I really think she's gonna love it!

Well, I guess that's enough of my randomness for now...I am headed to bed.  Good night!
