I owe, i owe off to work i go

Well mmm, what to say?  Firstly I apologise for may lack of blogging hubbie has done a much better job and his ability to write actually makes sense not like mine.  I believe my grammar, English and the ability to put a sentence together are probably graded at a year 7 level ( maybe lower child A writes much better).  Hubbie has always corrected my blogging so from now all you’ll get from me is bad spelling, punctuation and English which is really me.  After year 7 teachers didn’t really care anymore it was all about content until I got to uni.  We had one pedantic lecturer that used to go to town with the red pen on spelling, grammar the lot very depressing for someone like me.  Fortunately nurses don’t need very good writing and only limited abilities with maths.  In the end probably a good career for someone like me although I like cooking much better.

            Well the selling and buying stress is all gone now we just have the need to go back to work.  Not because I enjoy it but because we are finding ourselves a little short. Books, uniforms and moving expenses have drilled a small hole in the finances the credit card is really starting to flash.  Don’t get me wrong there are some parts of my job I enjoy immunisations, dressings, ecgs, spirometry, and on the computer.  What I don’t enjoy is stress and is seems the older I get the more my body is unable to cope with it.  My problem is what does a qualified and experienced practice nurse do? Well I’ll find out on Monday as I have an appointment with a careers counsellor if she can’t sort me out well no one can.  I hereby recommend to all that nursing isn’t all its cut out to be – I have found it tiring, dirty, stressful and open to all sorts of abuse from Drs, families and the patient themselves.  The hours are terrible.  I have been involved in a few codes (not one successful) and had a few emergency, emergencies at work cause that’s were sick people go.  Well there’s nothing like the stress of having someone’s life or death in your hands that one is a hard pill to swallow.  Nursing is for the tough, the adventurous, the unambitious and those who don’t care for money (compared to most degrees nursing wages are crappy).  None of these are me although I do have a lot of sympathy and the ability to empathise more than most people.  Funny thing is sometimes I REALLY dislike people.

Well will talk more dm stuff later won’t bore you with it in one hit.
