Day 1 of 107 (for 2nd semester nursing school)

I survived the first day of my second semester of nursing school. At least I wasn't nearly as nervous as the first day of last semester. And to think, if I hadn't been bumped up at the last minute, I would be starting the beginning of nursing school today. Wow. I've come so far it seems like since day 1. Its amazing how much easier something is once you get in the hang of it & have a good group of people to sit with, eat lunch with & do study groups with.
I'm nervous about balancing everything and taking online pathophysiology too. Everyone else has already completed the course before starting nursing school but since it was only a co-requisite for the program I was able to be accepted without having taken it, however I have to take it now before I can continue onto semester 3. If that makes sense. Either way there is a reason people take it before nursing school and not while in it. So what if the next 4 months are rough? Right? Worth it in the grand scheme of things.
On a better note, I randomly decided to list all of Mic's textbooks from last semester on Amazon. Even after he told me that it "wasn't worth the hassle  because he'd bought the books used on Amazon & they probably have changed editions, making them worth next to nothing.." But I have to supplement our income somehow lol. *last week I sold some old clothes to plato's closet- but that will only pay for my girl's lunch dates. Anyway, I listed them for around the lowest asking price of other sellers & was still surprised by how much one of his business books was still selling for. All 5 books sold within 24 hours, and I took them to the post office. Afterwards I got curious as to how much he bought them for at the beginning of last semester, so I checked out our amazon purchase history.. lo and behold that pricey business book that I listed at the asking price of everyone else.. sold for $50 dollars more than what Mic bought it for in the first place. That never happens! I've never got back what I bought for a textbook let alone made a profit. No idea how that happened since both were purchased through Amazon. And since Mic wasn't interested in selling them in the first place, I joked that I get to spend the  money deposited into our account.
Maybe I need a new cute fossil purse.. like this:
