Kate gone Wild!

Cleavage.

We all know the word cleavage, and what it refers to. Some of us have even heard of toe cleavage. For those that haven’t, it’s when the curve of your shoes around your toes is a little shorter. Which then shows the line between your toes. Hence, toe cleavage.

 

I don’t really ever show cleavageit’s a little hard to do when you don’t have much cleavage hah. But I’ve realized lately that there is a new bit of skin that I have a fascination with showing. It’s the ankle flash and J. Crew is actually pretty good at it. Mostly seen with skinny pants or chinos with ankle boots.



What’s you favorite bit of skin to innocently show?

DDay…eh ehm, I mean VDay.

I'm not the biggest fan of Valentine's Day. Maybe because I have always been single on the day, or maybe because I'd rather have the lovingly chosen item on a day when the rest of the world isn't getting the same treatment…I'm selfish like that I guess. 

To go with my mood on Valentine's Day, I found some of my favorite Valentine's Day cards.




If I got one of these, it would make me smile or even laugh out loud. But the typical run of the mill cards that are all lovey-dovey are a little past their prime in my opinion. You can only say the same things in the same way so many times. Ya know?

Hope you all feel loved today and everyday!

Deep Breathe with Kate.

I arrived early to take my test, which is honestly better than arriving late hah so no complaints here. I'm nervous and anxious, as usual with big tests. I tend to look at the worst case scenario and if I can give that silver lining then it's all good...and I have and in the end, it will all be okay. 

What's that saying, "In the end it will all be okay, and if it's not, then it isn't the end." I worked hard the past year and a half, harder than I have ever had to. That in itself is an accomplishment. This is the test that I will have to take everything I've learned and try to prove that I'm the nurse that you want taking care of you. (In all honesty, I'm awesome, so you should want me taking care of you even if I don't pass) ;) 

But anyhow, deep breaths, encouraging messages from family and friends, and prayers are getting me through today and I love you all for it. You guys are amazing. 

Also, I know God is with me today. He gave me this gray and dreary day to calm me. This weather is my favorite and He knows it. So thankful for Him and His ways of showing me that He is with me. 


Alright, leh go!!!

xoxo, Kate

catch up with kate.

I've been MIA the past couple weeks, just figuring out this whole life without school/clinicals thing. So, just in case you want to get in my head a little bit…here's what's going through it at the moment.

  1. Trying to come up with a system of studying for my boards
  2. Registering with all the different people I have to in order to register to take my test in less than a month possibly
  3. Reopening the vintage shop online, hopefully paying some bills 
  4. Seeing people I haven't spent time with for several months
  5. Planning a trip to Omaha and Vegas in May, trying to find the best price for flights
  6. Organizing a blog post calendar, and keeping a somewhat schedule for posts
  7. Find some health insurance until work starts
  8. Organize and go through my closet…get rid of some clothes!!
  9. Find a cabin to rent for my birthday weekend
  10. Decide on a haircut to get in a couple weeks
  11. Stop thinking about joining a gym and just do it
  12. Reading actual books that I want to!!
  13. Clean my house, do dishes and laundry
  14. AVOID SHOPPING!!!

So, this is what's in my brain at the moment…a to do list of sorts…

I'm thinking I should substitute some of the things on my list for some of the things on this list

Really want to do 10. hahaha, now to find some joggers in 29degree weather…
