What’s good fam? Has it really been that long?
I can’t believe we are midway through Sept and I haven’t posted a thing. Sorry to all the folks that emailed me, with no response—I haven’t been sick, I’ve just be drowning in a sea of too many responsibilities.
Work: has been a bust. What started out as another contract of fun and growth has turned into an almost nightmare! It’s true what they say, “Familiarity breeds contempt”. There is a charge nurse on nights that has an axe to grind with me and she is seriously on my case, every single night! We are scheduled to work together almost every day, so this has made my job really difficult. I won’t get into it on here (I’ll save it for the nursing blog), but I’ve had moments in the last 3 weeks that I just wanted to quit! Thank God for good friends on the job that have kept me sane….
School: has been busy but rad. The present class I’m taking is so challenging but I’m learning alot. Last week I had to do a brochure on pulmonary fibrosis…I got the highest grade in the class, it was so fetch! I’m planning on getting an A on this class, so I’m really putting my nose to the grind.
Relationship: has been great. Norio is such a blessing in my life, don’t know what I would do without him. He actually switched his job to work nights too, so that we both would be on the same schedule, and I must say, being both nocturnal has its perks! Now we schedule are breaks at work together and I can vent all night long…lol! Today after work we went to test-drive cars and found the perfect fit for both of us. Now we just have to come up with the money!
Nicosan: flipped me out one night! I don’t know if it was the combo of taking Nicosan on an empty stomach or if I was just feeling ill, but I totally threw up 10 minutes later (at work!) I’ve been kind of wary ever since, but nothing else has happened—maybe it was just a fluke. So now I’m taking it with my meal…right in the middle of dinner, that way there is food coating it on all sides.
Sickle Cell: is down and out. No episodes, no crises, no pain. Go Nicosan!
Okay, so that’s the scoop on me—what about you guys?
