No, I will not attend Nursing School

But today I did recieve my little Red Cross certificates that say I have been trained and am certified in first aid and child CPR after having attended 2hr. classes on each lovely subject. Quite interesting, they were indeed. The lady instructing us was a Red Cross worker and a volunteer fireman(woman), and had several stories to tell. She was on a tour downtown once in the Mary Washington House, (one of the many reasons for you to stop by sometime--this city is packed chock full of historical sites) and the tour guide(an older woman) just sort of collapsed unconscious, and she had to do CPR on her--one of the many reasons why everyone should learn CPR. Plus its fun playing with the practice dummies. One of the girls sat a dummy on a chair and put sunglasses on him-to the amusement of all.

When I took my classes, our dolls were heads and torso with a bag coming out of the bottom of the torso. The bag was so you could tell if you were properly pushing and breathing. Unfortunately I pushed too hard and blew the bag apart. Good thing it wasn't a live patient

Yes you do, though only through church. Let's see if you can guess, if not get your dad to help you, he might get it. I have attended harvest view, just graduated bibleschool, am living in manchester, and have blond hair. More hints later on if you need them. :-)
