4 weeks away

I four weeks I'm going to be in Los Angeles, I'm getting super excited about this trip. It will be nice to step foot into my little house again. It's been over a year since I've been back, and it's really time to get these loose ends tied up. No matter what that means. If it means moving back, then so be it let's get on with it. If it means the house gets sold, then that's good too. So it's pretty much a win-win situation. The only part that would really suck about going back would be the actual move. It's far away, and would require some major expense. I can deal with that, it just comes with the territory. I really hope I have time to do everything I need to do while I'm in L.A. so that I can get some time to go see my dogs in San Francisco.

My back has been doing much better. The new doc I went to has a plan, and I'm working on it. The meds he gave me don't make me loopy and I can do my job again, for the most part. I'm still taking it easy for the time being. I am glad I'm doing better considering there is a cross country flight coming up soon.

My job is going well, my review will be this week. I really hate reviews, it's not that I'm worried about it or anything. It's just weird to me for some reason. I believe a raise is coming out of this review, so I'll just tough it up and listen. I have to think of 3 goals to accomplish in the next year as well, bleh. The surgery department has been interesting, it's a lot different than ICU. For one, most of my patients are sedated, which decreases my likelihood of being bit. That's always good. I just started taking on call shifts, and that's a bit nerve wracking. You keep waiting for the phone to ring, and it did every day this past weekend. I am only doing on call 2 weekends out of the month, which is fine by me.

So that's it for now, a basic update of what's been going on. Things are slowly calming down. Very slowly. I just keep plugging ahead.
