Kiwi is holding her own. Her appetite has diminished greatly. Twice a day I try to find something that she will eat. If I get her to eat it in the morning, she doesn't want it later in the day. I am assuming that she wants to eat because she still sits near me when I am at the table, but then doesn't want the food. I know that when both my mother and Aunt were sick both said they wanted to eat, but just couldn't. It was a real struggle for both of them. I assume that is what is going on with her. It just breaks my heart.
I have been out of work since my company closed in 2009. Not totally out of work, but for the most part. I tutor at school and I am also a Per Diem waitress at an assisted living facility. I have to find a real job this summer one that pays more than minimum wage. So, with that in mind I decided back in March to sign up for a certified nursing assistant program that is being sponsored by the college and the local hospital.
I figured it couldn't hurt and I should be able to find some kind of job. I am actually looking forward to it. The program is for 4 weeks at night (4 - 9). The class starts tonight. This week is all class room and next week starts the clinical. I guess after this week there will be classes a few more times, but mostly clinical. We'll see how it goes.
I had to go buy a set of scrubs for the clinical piece and of course because I live in boonville - I had to go out of town to find a store. I was actually able to find a pair.
I only have 2 weeks left for college classes. My on-line class we are just preparing for the final and my micro-biology class & lab I am pretty much done. I am psyched because I do not have to take the final in that class. Yippee.
Wish me luck for tonight.
