This was a good week

This week at work went pretty smooth. I am beginning to feel more comfortable in my own skin. I still ask lots of questions, but not near as many as the previous weeks.

Now I hope next week will not be Hell on Earth!;-) Just in case I'm going to really enjoy the rest of my time off. It feels nice being able to once again enjoy hanging out with my husband at Starbucks chit chatting without an exam or the NCLEX looming in the back of my mind. Oh freedom, how sweet it is.

This nurse sums up the new nurses experience very well

Click on the title to read about some of the experiences of a new nurse.

Tomorrow will complete week 2 of me flying solo on the floor by myself. That's rigt now that I had 8 weeks of orientation I should know everything a nurse needs to know/sarcasm. Right now I feel lonely and like a train wreck, but it is going to get better (I hope)!

I start work real soon

I accepted a job offer and will begin working at the beginning of September! I will be on a cardiac step down unit.

My nursing license arrived!

I usually don't check the mail much because I normally get mostly junk mail. Since Terrance is away at work I figured I better not let the mail pile up. To my surprise my license was in the mail. It does not look like much, but it means so much to me!

It's official

I found out today that I passed the NCLEX test and I am officially a registered nurse!!!!!

So much to add

I have so much updating and additions to make to this site it is just sad. Soon real soon after I get this monkey off of my back called NCLEX! Please stay tuned.
