Sixth week of work

So sixth week of work 7th-11th August, where is the time going. On the Tuesday on a late and then a early on Wednesday. On the Wednesday got to watch how to give IV drugs via Hickman line. It is just a very clean procedure and next time will be able to do myself with supervision. Then I got to watch a chest drain been taken out which requires two nurses. One to pull out drain and one to hold pressure to stop air leaking out. After their had done it was still abit of leakage so Dr put more sutures in and I redressed it.
On wednesday after work Me, Bianca and Sarah went to view an apartment at Liberty Grove. It was 3 bedroomed only thing one bedroomed seemed smaller than others. Also it had a damp patch which said would just decorate over it, dont think that is right. It also wasn't furnished and I think I would prefer furnished, if we can get it. The area was very nice had a swimming pool and gym. I could definitely see myself living in this area and was reasonable priced would be about $200 each a week. Which is better than some of the ones I looked at in Rhodes.
On Thursday was on a late and had a nice shift. Then on Friday on another late so decided to go for a run in the morning. As I need to start getting back into my running. After the 1st half mile I was tired and had stomach ache and thought no more. But then I found a route through the wood and past rivet the foreshore trail and did 2 and half miles. Will definitely do that route again was nice and peaceful and hopefully will be able to run all the way round.. Before work I had my detect training which was a multiple choice quiz and scenarios. It was based around how to escalate a critically ill patient and everyone passed. When got to ward was a busy shift had a few blood products happening.
Then on the Saturday on a early and was very cold when going to work, felt like our Autumn. Work was ok but unfortunately the weather didn't brighten up al day and kept looking like it could rain. Which was a shame as was going to go into city for Emily's last weekend. So instead we stayed in and got Thai take-away I got beef satay. It was nice but there forget my rice so had to wait for it then it was cold, luckily could microwave. We then had a Brad Pitt marathon was showing 2 of his films. Which was 'Meet Joe Black' and 'Sleepers', he definitely looked better in Sleepers. But the film wasn't as nice as 'Meet Joe Black' was abit disturbing in places.
