New Blog for a New Stage of Life

I think I might start writing about my experience in nursing school. I am starting nursing school in 5 days! In 15 months, I'll have another Bachelor's degree. This time it will be a BSN. So, find my new blog in the blogosphere. Hm, what name can I come up with for it?

Leash and Collar

After a full year of being a hard core student and a year before that being a first-year teacher, my inner athlete has become dormant. I've done very little adventure sporting in the past year. A little XC skiing, but there wasn't much snow. Around-town biking, a run here and there, one white-water rafting trip. I can count it on my hand. Reading through my previous posts awakens my inner athlete's spirit and I wonder if that is still a part of me. I just got an amazing new companion--a dog. It doesn't seem so adventurous to me, but we walk her three times a day and so I walk about 3-6 miles a day with her. I see the world through completely different eyes. Sometimes my heart rate goes up a little, but mostly I am protecting her and looking out for puddles and people. She has brought so much laughter and energy into my life. I never thought of myself as a dog person, but I totally get it now. So I'm into gardening and owning a dog. I suppose I've become more of a domestic adventurist. (Is that an oxymoron?) That's who I am now. But an adventurous spirit never dies. My inner athlete will always be one of my greatest strengths whenever I choose to call upon her. For now, I'm really happy with my domestic adventures :-)
