Things are going pretty well. I went to work on friday and I was feeling very tired and generally crappy. I told the team leader that I felt sick, which was true. She let me go home at a 12 when another nurse could take my place. That means I missed 7 hours of work. I thoroughly enjoyed being home. Then, I was scheduled to work today as well. I recieved a phone call from the hospital at 5:30 am. It was the house supervisor. She knew I had gone home sick yesterday and she was wondering if I still felt ill. Normally you have to call into work the night before you work, and if not at least 2 hours before your shift starts. Because the hospital was staffed so well she would have to send someone home. I had thought about calling in today, and I let her know I still felt kinda crappy. So she said I could stay home because it would keep her from having to do a mandatory overstaff.
So I'm home today. Out of a 3 day work week (13 hour shifts) I made it to 1 and a 1/2. Thats sad really. Plus it is going to use up my PTO (paid time off). I have Stu's graduation to go to as well as my ex roommates wedding so I need to have some time off in May. We only earn 6 PTO hours per pay period. I can not be sick between now and May.
I feel guilty. I feel like I don't deserve to have time off because I only work a few days a week. However, I work what most people work in 5 days in 3... and my job isn't exactly easy.
In other news, we are going to get pre-qualified for a house loan. That means the house hunting is going to begin soon. I'll keep everyone updated on that.
I'm lazy and do not want to have to re-upload some of my pictures that I have from the wedding. So I'm going to try to link some from my myspace page... we will see if that works....
