The good & the bad....

So I'm supposed to be at work tonight. I got called off on Friday - kind of nice since I haven't been off since early April. I puttered around - took Matthew to BestBuy to get new headphones & I went to JoAnn's Fabrics to pick up some items to complete mom's birthday present. A nice evening. Then I worked last night. Well, if you want to call it work... :) I helped Darlene on MIU by taking a couple sets of vitals. Then we chatted & laughed the rest of the night. No patients. At all.

Unfortunately I was up for being put on call again tonight if there wasn't a need. I got the call at 5pm. That will hurt the paycheck as even though they are in different weeks, they are in the same pay period. UGH! Things better pick up Wednesday & Thursday. I can't afford to be off again - I don't have any PTO time!!! On the up side I will get 6 hours of pay for the 2 shifts off - call pay. At least that's something - only missing 18 hours instead of 24. Plus any PTO time I accumulate will automatically be used. I should be ok. No extravagance the rest of the month. LOL!

My friend, Sara, from work is awesome!! She's agreed to ferry me from home to get my ESI on Tuesday - all at an ungodly hour in the morning!!!! She must really like me! :) I think she just wants to see me drugged up!!!!

It's storming here now. Maybe I'll get called in yet!!

That's all I've got for now.
