Goodbye 142 day workout streak

I've lost my workout streak because of my two 16 hour days I had this week. I was so tired after work today that I was seeing black spots and I couldn't remember what key it was to get into my apartment.

I'm proud of my streak but I am just so fucking tired. I think I'm going to take a little bit of a break while I find a second job to try and pay some things off before I start school next fall. I'm still gonna do the gym/hikes/walks, but I'll be a little more gentle with myself while I go through this transition period of (hopefully) new work stuff + finding a good work - sleep balance haha. That's all I intend on doing between now and next fall. I really want to pay off my car and my credit card, and if I can swing it, pay for a year of car insurance too. That way I won't have to work as much while I'm in school.

I have two finals due by end of day on Monday. I've worked 2 12s this week plus a 9hr day + today was a regular shift but my cat Lugnut had to go to the vet. I have zero motivation to study or do anything except lay down....and scroll Tumblr

Haha I would be accepted to nursing school literally the same week as starting a new job that's not in healthcare 🙃🙃🙃

I smashed that test and the testing lady said those were the best scores she'd seen all day 🙃

Why LPN and not RN? Just curious what path I should consider.

I've answered this before, but mostly because I want to work with residents in a nursing home who have dementia/Alzheimer's. I wouldn't be able to have much patient contact as an RN. and I don't really want to work in a hospital. Jury is still out though.

It's a different decision and different reasons behind the choices - think about what you want to do and where you want to be before you decide!
