My shift at the hospital was a gong show today. We were running in circles, working over one another, flailing around as one odd thing after another flew our way. It was a WEIRD shift.
We are moving hospitals in August. What an enormous job! There are actually businesses that move hospitals, that's what they do. And ours is about to move. The building our current hospital is in is a condemned building. A friend who works with a heating and cooling company says the company no longer feels safe sending repair men into the bowels of the building to fix what needs fixing. I suppose we need a new hospital.
All this change on the horizon makes change-lovers giddy and change-resisters downright grouchy. Today, I encountered some grouchy. The adjustment in staffing means that we sometimes (in the transition period) have an over- or an under-abundance of workers. Today was a over-abundance of workers placed in odd shift slots. We had a bunch of us, clamoring around for who does what, but we were only booked half the day with no replacements. Crazy!
Anyhow, enough about that. It just means I am glad to be home, and glad to lay my head on my pillow for the night-
And at the end of the day, all is well. The kidlets are curled in cocoons in their bunkbed, smelling like sweet bath wash. And tomorrow is another day to breathe and shine.
sigh.
Today I am Thankful For:
10-the pure miracle of childbirth
11-the opportunity to see the tender (lovable) underbelly of a cantakerous co-worker
12-the essential oil smell in my home after positively green clean!
