Uncertainty

After much waiting and anticipation, we finally found out on the job that Jerry applied for. They finally emailed last night and the answer was thanks for applying but we are going to go with someone else. Jerry was kind of bummed, and I was sad that he was disappointed, but to be honest, I was also relieved because I didn't want him to be gone. To be completely honest, we don't know what we are going to do or where we are supposed to be. All we know is that we want to move away from Utah and the families so we can be more on our own.

I started clinical on Wednesday night, and stayed up all night! The shift was 5-5, and I can tell you 12 hours is a long time. I did enjoy it and it went by pretty quickly. We were really busy, hardly sitting down the first 4 hours. I got some good experience. I put in a couple of catheters and started 2 IVs, one on my nurse and one on a patient. 1 down, 7 to go. Staying up all night definitely messes up your sleeping patterns, though. Luckily I only have to do one more 5-5 shift. I definitely looking forward to a whole week off for Spring Break!!
