Well after 2.5 years of stress, struggle, sweat, and tears the day is finally upon us. I am taking my national family nurse practitioner certification exam. I never used to have test anxiety. I was the one who was always excited to take a test - but for some reason - this program has made me a crazy person and the thought of taking this exam and the implications of what happens if I fail it are freaking me out! Maybe when I became a nurse 50 million years ago I was too dumb to be afraid. Now - I may need to be admitted for psychiatric evaluation.( Lol). Anyway - if you aren't too busy with fun summer stuff, and have a few moments to whisper a prayer or send a good thought my way Friday around 11am EST (through 2pm - long test!) it will be very much appreciated. In the meantime I am trying not to lose my mind and remember that even if I fail I can retake it and no one will die. (Except for me if I jump off the bridge between Kentucky and Cincy once I see my test results.) Thanks again to everyone who has supported me on this journey.
