Happy BDay Mom!

Four days into my new career and I already forgot my mother's birthday...  Am I already that enmeshed in my work that I forget the important things?

Sorry Mom!  Happy bday to the best mom ever!

Today was pretty good.  We did a lot of hands on learning today.  Well some of it was learning, like PCA pumps and the computer charting system.  And some stuff was review that they wanted to make sure we knew what we were doing, like Foley catheters, IV pumps, and SCDs.

My first name was spelled wrong on the computer charting system, but they got it fixed right away!  I was happy when they changed it because I like my name.

I'm not sure all of what we are doing tomorrow, but I know it involves a math test.

"O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!" Psalm 8:9

Work Tomorrow

Tomorrow is my first day of work.  Well, it's orientation, but still.

I went to the scrubs store a week ago, and apparently I'm "petite."  You want to know how many pairs of petite pants they had in my size at the scrubs store?  One.  So apparently everyone else in this town is petite too.

Mother told me I could buy four pairs of scrubs with her credit card, so I ordered 3 more pairs of pants from the store.  And they aren't here yet, I called yesterday and the store said that they might be in tomorrow.  But I work tomorrow, I think I'll be off work in time to pick them up though, or I'll be forced to re-wear my one pair of pants all week.

I'm so excited to wear my scrubs.  The hospital I work at has a uniform, so I'll be in navy blue and white.

So excited to start working as an RN.

And, yeah, it went fast.
