First week of night shifts. What did I get myself into!? At least on day shifts I didn't have to think about it too much before going into work. Now I have all day to think about work. The anxiety sets in about 3 o clock in the afternoon. I try to make myself take a nap, but there is no way I can get some shut eye. Nathan's dog is barking at who knows what, Maggie is shaking the bed with her scratching, construction is going on outside, someone is mowing their lawn. People are alive during the day! At least my patients are somewhat sleepy when I get in at night. I try to let them rest but guess what! I have to do vital signs and go up on your pit. Sorry! Apologizing doesn't seem to work so well.
We have less than 2 weeks before we go to Peru. To be honest I haven't done a thing, thanks mom! We are excited for the trip ahead and especially spending the Christmas Eve in Cuzco. I am especially exited for Machu Picchu! Chris and I wanted to run up it...jk supposedly it is the hardest marathon in the world! Nah I think we'll pass and just ride a train instead. We are also going to the Amazon. Don't parhanas in the Amazon and crazy looking animals/insects are there too? I hope it is a smooth trip!
