Getting Ready for change

Let's start at the beginning. About a year ago I got this intense urge to look into switching feilds of nurse to hospice. I put in an application with a hospice company about 8 months ago and never heard anything and shrugged it off as I wasn't unhappy with my current job. This past week I had an interview with said company that came completely out of the blue and they offered me the job. I have decided to accept it and gave my 2 weeks notice to my boss yesterday which was probably the single most hardest thing I've had to do since being a nurse. I love my current boss and am not sure how I will function without her. She has been a great boss/mentor/educator for me over the past 4+ years and I will be sad not to be working side by side with her everyday. I am going to stay on 1 sat a month or every other month with my current place of employment so that I can stay close to my patients/co-workers. I am excited and nervous about this new phase of my nursing career and I think it will be a good thing in the long run for our family but only time will tell if this is the right decision. I pray it is. I prayed about this decision and believe I got a clear answer.

On toddler news. We have been trying to potty train but have not had a lot of success. I'm hoping soon we will get there. He is capable and does well some days but is not interested in doing it full time right now. He otherwise is doing great. We had our Adenoids/Tonsils out early august and that was a hard 2 weeks of recovering but he has been SUPER GREAT since then. No more runny noses which we have dealt with every day since birth literally. I'm hoping for a fall/winter with no ear/sinus/respiratory infections now that we have had this procedure done. I hope anyone who may still be reading this blog is doing well and experiencing great things in life.

may god bless you,
B
