My favorite memory of Summer 2015 would of course have to be passing the NCLEX and officially becoming a RN. It was easily the BEST DAY OF MY LIFE. Landing a job in my dream specialty comes in a close second. Nursing is the best profession.
I had my fair share of lobster rolls, seafood, onion rings, and ice cream. All important parts of summer on Cape Cod. I mean have you been to Somerset Creamery? It's easily the best ice cream on Cape.
Parked my beach chair in the sand quite a few times.
Oh, how could I have forgotten about afternoons and evenings at the Chartroom? Mudslides are the perfect afternoon pick me up in the summer.
Volunteered at the Falmouth Road Race and ALS Cliff Walk. I officially got to cross something off my bucket list- working side by side as a nurse with the best nurse I know. She (my mom) is really a bad ass, and if I could be half the nurse she is one day, I'd be lucky.
I went to quite a few bridal/wedding/bachelorette events! Super fun spending time with great girlfriends planning weddings, picking out bridesmaid dresses, going to a wedding, and a fun bachelorette parties!
A few evening spent riding my bike at the Cape Cod Canal. It's my favorite place to ride because it is so beautiful, especially at sunset. There are so many spots to park and jump on the canal on either side of the bridge.
Oh, the sunsets. They never get old.
Most importantly, my health has improved so much from last year. Last summer was really tough for me because it was when all of the autoimmune problems started happening and I basically didn't enjoy the summer. That may sound dramatic but, I was extremely miserable, sad, and depressed for the majority of the time last year. I remember it so vividly because this summer I would go do things like ride my bike at the canal, walk my dog, or spend the day at the beach and I was hesitant because the last time I did those things, I was in a lot of pain and couldn't enjoy it. I'm so lucky and thankful to have found treatment that works for me because I'm happy and myself again. I'll touch on this more in upcoming posts but, I am so thankful for my health this summer. It allowed me to enjoy another Cape Cod summer, which is the best place to spend any summer.
I love my home. <3
