Day 179 & 180

Well here I sit. On call again. Twice in one week! Amazing. It makes working eight days in a row bearable. It also gives my brain a chance to rest. Last night was chaotic. We only had two nurses to start out.... and only eight patients.... which means we each got 2 admissions and had to call in another nurse to help with the other 3.... grand total of 7 admissions. And one of my patients passed away, so I had to stay late to wrap up loose ends there. I felt so scatterbrained the whole shift, especially with two post-cath patients.

I woke up today and felt even more scatterbrained. I dug through all of my gifts and boxes of wedding garb so I could find my cousin's purse she had borrowed me for the wedding. And

it wasn't in the box with my bouquet and muff. :( So thus began a frantic search, which included running out to the church to see if it got left there. It wasn't there, so I messaged all of the bridesmaids. Hopefully it shows up soon. I feel really bad because I know it was the clutch she used for her wedding too and I'm not sure what type of sentimental value it has. :( I also ran to my mom's work today to deposit late wedding gifts. And then had to run to the mall. But I did get to see Cora and Kalena at the mall, which snapped me back into reality for a moment. Then I rushed home and have been busy getting for work.... just to get called off. Now it's time to sit back and breathe. *sigh*
