High Five for Friday! | March 15

This week has been a blur!!!  I was in Denver, Colorado until the wee hours of Tuesday, and went back to work Wednesday... Myself and 3 college friends met there for a board review.  We have to take a "recertification" test to maintain our license as a physician assistant.  Unfortunately, we have to take this test every so many years - and it covers all topics in medicine regardless of your field of medicine.  

Anywaysssssssssssssssssssss

High five! for the following reasons:

1. Study, study study.  We spent 3 full days in lecture from 645 a - 5ish p.  Holy long days and holy coffee drinking.  It def was an amazing review.  It was put on by a super cool cardiology pa.  I plan to go to another CME event by Certified Medical Educators in the future!  My test date is planned for this coming Friday, March 22 - wish me luck!

2. Staying on track.  Well, trying to stay on track!  I came home and have consecutively exercised *three* days in a row.  Phew, I am glad I did it!  I cheated a bit on my eating so hopefully I can recoup my indulgences by trying harder now that I am home and able to cook for myself more. (says the girl who had mexican for dinner last night!--- with a corona! haha)

3. St. Patrick's Day! Fun holiday for everyone.  Except I'm going to try to be a responsible adult and career oriented woman and stay home.  That's right.  No green beer for this girl.  Well, that is unless I get the studying done on my "study schedule".... or unless Folgers convinces me to go out ;)  (Folgers = forrest = hubby)

4. Great coworkers.  I have really enjoyed my colleagues and my job recently.  Feeling blessed and thought I'd share :D

5. Pandora.  Evenings I am home alone.. I *love* to blare either my country pandora station.. or sometimes when I'm feeling it Staind.  It helps keep me entertained the hours I spend sitting on my bum in PhotoShop processing images!

High Five for the Weekend | March 3, 2013

Instead of "High Five for Friday" this week I wanted to share a HF4W post!

1.  Kassandra Olgers Photography has officially become busy!  I had 3 sessions this weekend, and am always in the process of emailing back and forth new and/or potential clients.  I am so thankful that bout one year ago, I was convinced to challenge my creativity and photograph my first boudoir session.  Making clients feel as beautiful as they are is my main goal, and I believe I accomplished it this weekend!

2.  A girl's weekend.  This coming weekend I am heading to Denver, Colorado.  I have to re-certify for my physician assistant's license soon so myself and 3 friends are meeting up to go to a 3 day course.   To keep up with me during my trip, be sure to follow me on instagram @kassandraolgers

3. A boy's weekend.  This past weekend Forrest had two friends visit for the weekend.  Total shenanigans but so fun and so glad he got some testosterone time. :)

4. Building a new house.  We have our house on the market... and are anxiously awaiting one more contractor to give us an estimate for our new house we plan to build.  Hopefully we hear back and its good news!

5. Happy hour yoga.  Friday after work I went to the best de-stressing exercise class.  There is a local yoga studio that offers a class Friday evening where you "donate what you want" and attend a yoga class.  The instructor was excellent and used all kinds of strange words I am not familiar with- but it def took my stress level way down and I felt more relaxed than I have been in a long time :)

Well, thats it for this week! Sorry no pics to accompany it- but there will be plenty of pics on instagram throughout my trip this coming weekend!
