I'm also working up a storm. I am working 2 nights/week and taking call for work up to 3 times a week. (We have a nurse out on leave for the last half of her pregancy, so we have to be on call in case we are busy.) I love being at work...the people I work with are awesome and so much fun! Unfortunately, I have been branded with the Labor and Delivery "black cloud" as of late. I have only been back in L&D twice since coming back from maternity leave and the first night, there were only 2 of us OB nurses on the floor and I delivered a baby without a Dr - thankfully the baby was okay even though it was a little early. The 2nd time, which was last week, a woman came in at 1am abrupted (bleeding) and we had to do a stat c-section. The baby had a rough go at it - he was only about 35 weeks and had a hard time transitioning. Luckily his shell-shock wore off after a couple of hours so we didn't have to transfer him to Greenville.
Stress, stress, and more stress. I have found myself venting, so for that I must apologize. But it feels darn good, so I'm going to keep going!!! Some of you may have known that I traded in my CR-V about 2 1/2 weeks ago to get a *gasp* Odyssey (minivan). As much as I hated to get rid of my car, the Odyssey is about as cool as it gets for a minivan, plus I got a great deal on my trade-in. It's been awesome until this Saturday afternoon - now it won't crank. So I've gone around and around with the dealership folks to get it fixed (it's amazing how once they have your $$, they are way less willing to help you!!) Anyways, that won't get fixed until Monday. Not to mention that the garbage disposal bit the dust earlier this week and Matt just called me at work to tell me that the computer was on the fritz.
Okay, now to the wonderful part of my life, my boys!!
And Patrick just loungin':
