Accomplised my first day on the job!

Jeff took a couple of pictures of me, in my scrubs before I headed off to work yesterday. I was a nervous wreck! However...I did survive the night! I worked with so many nice nurses and PCTs. I trained with two PCTs, Belinda, for my first four hours, and Christina, my last four hours. It is a different world in that hospital! Also crazy how the first part of my shift is like busy busy busy; and the last part of my shift was busy, but quiet because it was bed time for patients. I got to do somethings on my own, like charting, emptying the urine & measuring, taking vitals, accu-check, etc. I work again this evening and tomorrow evening. I am exhausted already! I got home at midnight, crawled in bed at 12:05, but couldn't fall asleep until after 1:00am because my mind was racing with what I just experienced at work. The kids were up before 6:00am, I was in no mood to start my day, so I gave them their breakfast, put the Disney channel on and went back to bed. I slept in tell 8:00am and Jeff was getting ready to take Kent to school...I wanted to do that, so I quickly pulled on some jeans and a sweatshirt and took Kent to school. Kent was happy about that...little guy.
