What's next?

I am 2 months in to the new year and I am getting restless. Raleigh is not my home anymore, and it hasn't been for a long time. I am missing city life, and I don't care what anyone says Raleigh is not a real city. This place is driving me nuts. It's boring! I need to find somewhere else to go. The only problem is that I really like my job here. I really don't like being this close to my family. My mom is nice and all, but it's the expectation that when she wants something it has to be today. Like we don't have anything else going on. It can get frustrating sometimes.

Okay and the one other part about moving again that would suck, is the actual moving part. The expense, the packing, the unpacking. When my husband and I split, he pretty much got all the stuff we owned. Now I have gotten new stuff and I don't want to give it up again. So selling what I own to move is not an option.

I know everything will work out. It's just going to tak some time. Right
now I need to concentrate on the moving of the rest of our stuff from Chicago to Raleigh. Getting everything in one place. Then we can pick it all up and move somewhere else. Fun stuff.

Surgery

So it's my second week as a surgery tech. It's been pretty interesting so far. There is soooo much to learn. I'm enjoying it all. Today I got to assist from beginning to end all on my own. That includes blood work, catheter, induction, anesthesia, post-op recovery, and setting up post op treatment sheet. Plus the surgery was 4 1/2 hours long. It was a bilateral TECA (Total Ear Canal Ablation). Which means we removed both of the ear canals and sewed them up. So now the poor doggie is deaf, but on the plus side no more ear infections. So that was my day at work. Not bad, just long.

Everything else in life is going pretty well. My tenant paid all his back rent to me. Now he just has to stay on time with future payments or get out. I can't be nice about it anymore. It's just the way it has to be.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. We should be going out to dinner somewhere nice. Maybe I'll go get a purty new outfit to wear. It will be nice day, because it's also my day off. I need to go to the gym as well.

So there's my life as it stands right now. Not bad at all. I just had my annual checkup and my PAP smear came back normal which is always good news. (Did you really want to know that? Probably not, but it's part of my day.)
