Nurse I am Not

My GF is sick. She had flu-like symptoms yesterday and today she has a cold. Sneezing and blowing her nose, coughing and wheezing, and whining non stop.

I feel like smacking her snot filled head. Is that bad of me? I can't help it, she is making me nuts. She thinks I have no compassion, but I do. I just can't keep up the good nurse routine for very long - I could play Dr. but that is another subject and believe me, she is not in the mood today.

Ugh. I just want to have spring be here and go outside and play in the dirt. I don't want to be stuck inside with a sick girlfriend. With this admission, I am now doomed to get the cold from her, and suffer the consequences.

TGIF.........No More

I miss my Friday's! Damn! Let me explain.... At my last place of employment, I worked 10 hour days, Monday thru Thursday. And Friday was "my day". It was wonderful. It felt like I actually had enough time. Time just for me. I could spend the day doing yard work, visiting my mom, going to the beach, whatever I wanted to do. Even though I mostly just stayed home and got the house cleaned, did laundry, etc. - it was still my time. I loved that.

I no longer have my Friday's. The new job requires me to work Monday thru Friday. Thursday evenings, I feel so resentful and cranky! I feel like a little kid who got their favorite toy taken away. And yes, I am pouting over it.

Overwhelmed

Two days on the new job............I'm tired!! Whine! Whine! More than anything, I feel overwhelmed - there is alot to learn. I'm working on being patient with myself, so I don't go crazy.

Hopefully I'll get used to working again soon, so I can start posting something a little more interesting. Right now I'm too tired to think.
