{REAL Pt. day!}

Well folks, the big day came and went, just like that!  I was pretty nervous all weekend and had a hard time falling asleep last night.  I woke up super early and got to clinic way early to get everything all set up.  My awesome hubby Matt came up and was my first victim. :)  I so appreciate him taking time out of his busy day to support me!  Everything went well and was not too terrible.  I was only able to get through the OD and x-rays.  I was so hoping to be able to scale a quad, but my OD check seemed to take forever, and I wasn't signed up for x-rays till about 10:00, so I felt like I was waiting to get those done.  At least I didn't have any retakes.  Wahoo!!  Overall, I felt like today was a really good learning experience and a good refresher for how to start an appt. from scratch.  I can't say that I'm less stressed about next semester, but I have a feeling that I'll get through it, just like everyone else! :)  I just need to stay positive and pray that I can find enough patients to fill my schedule.  I can't believe that we are almost done with clinic this semester!  But I'm not sad--just very excited to have a nice long Christmas break!  Can't wait!!!
