Lunch and Shoe pics and Other stuff too :o)
Good evening everyone! I hope that you are all having a great Thursday! I'm excited about Friday's WI but since I'm working this weekend I'm not excited that tomorrow is "just" a Friday like I use to be over it.
I get every other weekend off. And this weekend is not it. <SIGH> Oh well, ya gotta do what ya gotta do, right? But I will be excited about next Friday I am off Fri. Sat. & Sun. (YAY!)
So I had a great night @ work last night. They called me in early at 8:30 p.m.- We only had 1 stat room and no labor and delivery rooms and no O.R. rooms- we helped out in the E.R. and cleaned the main lobby and all that good stuff. We worked hard, but it was nothing- nothing like Monday night. Monday night was CRAZY and we worked like we were fighting fire. I think that's helping me burn a lot of calories off. 
My training is going good. I am still learning all of the little things, but I am getting it and I even did 2 rooms all by myself last night and I did really good if I say so myself.
We had a couple of rooms last night in isolation where we had to wear masks, safety surgical gowns, hair covers, booties on over our shoes, gloves (we ALWAYS wear gloves no matter what & I always wear booties to keep my shoes clean) and safety goggles. It was pretty intense and I loved it. I felt like I was in a Si-Fi movie being dressed the way I was! HA-HA (sounding like Nelson on the Simpsons)
I have been taking fruit and light string cheese for my lunch, I've added a pic to my EP album of my lunch just in case any of you are curious. And also a pic of the shoes I finally decided on, I wore them last night and my feet didn't hurt at all this morning when I got off from work. I was so happy and thankful for that. I eat fruit every night I work and I feel so good about that. The women I work with eat cookies and candy bars- I bring enough fresh fruit and light cheese to share, I always ask them if they would like some. They always thank me but decline and eat even more junk, and they wonder why they are so tired each morning.
I'm going to get dinner started now and I am making a low fat / low cal dessert for dinner, it's fast to prepare, but takes 3 hours to freeze, so I've gotta get started. If it turns out good I'll post a pic of it.
I'm still not drinking my water like I'm supposed to be, I'm gonna try really hard today and tonight to get in at least 100 0z. That's not really a whole lot when you really look at it. It sounds like it's a lot of water but I don't think it really is.
Ok, I've gotta run and get dinner going. I'll update in the morning with my WI results, I'm feeling pretty darn good about what they could be! I hope that you are all having a great day!
(Tomorrow I take my mom for pretesting) I'll let you know how it goes.
