She Is Raging
Refugee
Well I've started the new job this week.... and so far I'm not sure what the hell to do with myself. My entire routine has changed!
I need to get up and leave a half hour earlier (which is huge for me) in the morning since I now take the T in rather than drive, and I get home later too. I left an ICU with lots of experience, to a step down floor and I feel like I"m back in nursing school again learning things all over again. Plus I miss my tiny babies (I never thought I'd say that). I like being independent with my work, and I hate the fact that I'm on "orientation" for the next few weeks following someone around. More often than not now, I have to leave and stay home by myself at night rather than staying at my boyfriends because I dont want to wake him up an hour earlier than he has to... and he's on call just about every weeknight and cant stay here with me. I miss not seeing him in the morning before I leave for work/and sleeping in the same bed with him. I dont usually get to see him much during the week, but we at least always had that before. My birthday is next week and I feel like I'm getting old even though I'm technically not. And not that it's a huge thing - but I can barely keep up on my email etc since I dont have web access at work anymore. I never realized how much I used it for everything, be it headlines, weather, etc... during the day.
I'm just grumpy. I feel all out of sorts... I cant fully relax. I'm not sleeping right. I feel like I'm on another planet or something - or that I"m losing my mind. I'm just feeling sorry for myself I guess! I know I"ll get used to it sooner enough, I just need to vent. I just feel crappy .
