Fears and Jeers

So I am "moving" to Temple this Friday and I have mixed emotions. I love my apartment here in Houston very much, its cozy and my stuff is here! BUT some of this shit in here is so raggedy! How embarrassing is it when the A/C starts squealing like a dying squirrel when company is over?! ugh, it will def be nice to get away for a week or two! LOL! Plus judging from the pictures this new place won't be too shabby!

Def an upgrade from my current place, but granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances do not make a place! Safety, silence and savings make a place to me!!!

Well as far as working at a strange place goes, I AM SO NERVOUS! All I know is S. L!!! I only know their policies, equipment and culture. Everyone keeps telling me you develop thick skin while traveling, I just have to stay prayed up when I encounter the 1st instance of being clowned or "chewed out". LMAO! But I can handle anything for 13 weeks...as long as my patients are ok, then I'm ok. They are truly the reason why I am a nurse. Management, hospitals and staff can be such a let down, but the patients are my foundation and motivation! I'm a little nervous about being dumped on with the poopers and confused, but I have had it plenty...the difference will be it will be from strangers with no regard to who I am as a person. SAFETY SAFETY SAFETY! I don't want to walk in there with safe harbor forms...but I am so tempted lmao! (Non-nursing personnel, GOOGLE IT: Nursing, Texas, Safe Harbor)

Working at S.L was one of the joys of my life, excellent staff management ...well they were there hehehehe. Mostly the staff! It came to the point where small things were starting to irritate and get me worked up...if anyone knows me when it comes to that, its time for me to move around! You can ask any RA in Jester West 2007-2008 (spring) LMAO! I just don't like it when the paperwork becomes precedent over the actual patient care...but I am going stop right there! IF IT AINT CHARTED THEN IT AINT DONE! YOU FORGOT TO CHECK THE N/A BOX ETC ETC...And im done! Its getting closer folks!!!

  1. Oh man, B.S ;-) I am so excited for you! I've been entertaining the idea of doing some traveling in the future... I will definitely be using you as my guinea pig. Can't wait to hear all about it!
