PearlMoon's Journal

just did shot 8. In the tummy for the first time. Can't believe it is already week 8. It is all in-stride now. It hasn't been side effectless this whole time but nothing i can't handle. For two days i was down, couldn't break the temp etc., but i survived. Yea, there are little aches here and there, few hairs less, but my diet is going well. I am only eating organic and of course vegetarian. Not totally vegan-love cheese. I am steadily loosing a little bit and keeping it off. So-BONUS. I am slowly learning that life is short and live it. I had decided i hated my job awhile back. Had worked 2nd shift for 11 years and went to 1st for the last 8 months-doing insurance precerts for inpatient care. High stress and high suck. I missed the day to day interactions with the patients. So, i finally spoke up last friday to the director of nursing. And within one week, i have the job i want. Back to 2nd on the crisis unit. The crisis unit is the best. it is where the truly mentally sick are. You have a chance to really help them. I feel a great sense of relief. I will start in a week or two-will know on monday. Before the shift switch i was the nursing supervisor, don't want to do that again either. High stress. But i promised i would fill in from time to time. I don't mind that. I am soo happy about this. One of the reasons i switched was for the hubby, more time with him. I think we've both had enough of togatherness. He knew i wasn't happy. I will have so much more energy every day. I don't have to get up at 6 am! I am home in the bed by midnight on 2nd, up about 9. Can't wait to not see 6am again.
