Busy With This and That
I haven't been blogging or reading blogs for the past couple of weeks. I finally have had a chance tonight to sit and do just that. I started my first university course towards my nursing degree. It is actually an English course on essay writing. It isn't a nursing course per se, but all but one of us online are actually nurses in the degree program. I know it is only the beginning, but I am enjoying things so far. Most of the nurses are in the same kind of situation as I am. The majority are in their late 30s or 40s and working with children. We all have priorities to deal with. It is refreshing how supportive we are to each other. We post messages on a message board and critique each other's work. I guess one could probably tell that we are "caregivers" according the the kind of encouragements we leave for each other. We have already had two quizzes plus an essay completed. I find it more motivating being an online course, as you know, I do love my computer!!

It's always amused me how many nurses are women and how many doctors are men. My mom is a nurse practitioner (a nurse who is practically a doctor for those who don't know) and worked in the OB for years before that. It sounds like my only female cousin on my dad's side is going to be going for her nursing degree as well.
It is "interesting". I do feel that even though men can be "nurturing", God has primarily given that trait to most women. That is, what I believe the reason that more nurses are women.
