Georgeous George


Really there is not much to say...went to the George Strait concert last night.....what can I say but, AMAZING!! King George is one of the few that gets better looking and sounding with age so I'll just leave it at that....sigh.
I'll save all my ranting about driving drunk, sunburn pealing, crazy driving, and my new theories about life for another time...haha...lets just all savor this moment with George.

McKay Dee

Most of you know that I recently transferred to McKay Dee from IMC. I started orienting there 2 weeks ago and now I'm offically ready to be on my own (even though I've been doing the exact same thing for 9 months already). Anyway, I still work on the postpartum (mother/baby) unit, which I still love! Everything is basically the same from IMC, except a few little things that I felt comfortable with in a matter of minutes. This move is a good one for many reasons...1- Instead of a 35 min commute I now only have a 15-20 min one. 2-The shifts are 5pm-5am, which works out better for school and such. At IMC I worked 7pm-7am. So by the time I got home I might as well just stay up and go to my class at 10am instead of being groggy....of course those that know me know that most of the time I just ended up skipping class because at that point I had usually been up for more than 24 hours! So the 5 to 5's will be great because most of my classes in the fall dont even start until 11am, so I'll actually get some sleep. 3-It sure has a better view than IMC ever did. I'd much rather see a beautiful fountain than the trax train when I look out the window. 4- I can get over time without feeling like its a sin. 5- When my friends have their babies here, I'll be able to take care of them now!!
So even though there are all these good things about transferring to McKay, I still am finding it hard to enjoy working here. I miss my friends at IMC, but I am making new ones here. I guess it will just take time (like any other job) to feel comfortable and in sync with every one else. But so far its been an okay decision. It can only get better!
