Life's Moments

I didn't say good by to my job at the hospital. I'm still going to be on call staff. But at the same time, it was goodbye. I know that I won't be working there very often. Maybe a weekend here and there and maybe a couple days during the holiday. It will all just depend.

I have been working at this hospital for over 3 years. I started the Monday after my graduation. It was a great start. I was nervous starting there and now I feel like the job is a breeze, Im extremely comfortable doing what I do there. As some have told me, "I've become one of the best." For the last 2 years I have been the person that trained/oriented new Nursing Assistant staff. I've become close with the people that I work with there. It was hard to say goodbye. Hopefully I will be able to work a day here or there to keep in touch. As one nurse Becky said, "Chelsea was a stepping stone to bigger and better things. " I think she is right.

Today was a nice day of work. We had a potluck, and it was wonderful. Everyone brought some good and different to the table. I love potlucks! :) People even chipped in and gave me a small stepping stone. ( How fitting?) They told me it would be one of many. I've learned a lot at Chelsea hospital and I plan on taking everything, all the memories, lessons and friends with me.

Maybe I'm just a little scared. I'm going to have to start somewhere new. I'm not a huge fan of change. I'm a planner, and I need time to adjust to new things. Maybe more time then most. But like my mom says, "its a big new adventure." And that's how I am trying to look at it.

On to bigger and better things...

Like tomorrow . . . Michigan Adventure!
