I am in shock

I haven't been on here in awhile. Many crazy things have been going on. Work is crazier than ever. One week we are slow, then the next we are absolutely full. It's been stressful to say the least.

We took Lily to get her Easter/9 month pics last week. I didn't want to do her pics when she was 9 months because I knew Easter would be coming soon, so I just waited a month. Her pics were alright. I'm glad I didn't spend too much on them. Lily wasn't in a very good mood. Her teeth were bothering her and most of the pics had her hand in her mouth. We were able to get a few good ones though. As we were finishing, there was this lady that wanted to get her picture taken with her children and didn't have an appointment, so she had to wait. Her daughter was absolutely rude, not just to her mother and other siblings, but to us as well. She was the biggest brat. Her mother did nothing to control her. I wanted to smack her across the face (I would never do it to anyone) but oh my. I don't understand people sometimes. I would never let Lily act like that.

Last night, we went to Evansville to celebrate my upcoming birthday. It was fun. Our friends Jen, Aaron, Dale, Mary Beth, Chris, Meghan, and Austin all come as well. It was so much fun catching up with them. We haven't got to see everyone like that in a long time.

Well, I am kind of sad. I just found out that I have loss my job at Deaconess. I have worked there since November of 2001. When I moved to Evansville for nursing school, I started working there as a CNA. They were very good to me. I started my nursing career there. I learned so much. I left in March of 2008 to work full time at Memorial in Jasper and work as needed at Deaconess. I physically could not drive the hour and a half to Deaconess main campus three days a week. Plus, the cost of gas was sky high. Well, after a few incidences (long story), Deaconess has decided to close that unit down and convert it into a Med-surg unit. The staff doesn't know what will happen with them. However, I am sadly going quit because I do not have to time to train on a different floor, if they even decided to keep me on payroll. I am very sad. Deaconess was my home. I started out there and I was always hoping that one day, I would end up back there. Insert tears!

I am hoping to post new pics soon. I am getting ready to go to John's family for Easter celebration. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
