I promise, I've been around I've just been scuttling around much more than I normally do so I don't have as much time to keep ya'll entertained. I lived through my first week of "work" which was taking over another woman's schedule while she was on vacation and it was hard. It was hard on me and my family. I appreciate the unwavering support I have recieved though as I journey back into the working world for heaven knows how long.
This week I am working my own schedule with my own patients which helps a lot and actually gives me a couple days off. I am working M/W/F mornings. I have really enjoyed working in my field and it helps me remember why I started out this track of trying to secure a nursing degree and work all these hours for what most people may think is too little money and too much time. But I love it. I like that I have the knowledge and power to help these people who may feel completely powerless at times. Now, being 30 weeks pregnant I know that my doctor will be coming down on me hard and soon about some of my duties but I will keep it up as long as I can physically muster. I do have to be a little careful and mindful of my little one though because of the complications I had with Garrin I am at risk for a few things that must always be in the back of my mind.
The housework, meals and family time have suffered a bit this past week but with my current schedule I feel that I can mostly keep up. Joe is in the last week of his employment and we have no job offers in sight so me working right now is a little security until whatever is supposed to happen will happen. We both feel secure and are not in a panic for any reason....at least for now. The next few weeks should be interesting to see where our life will lead us and our family.
