Sunday 31st march Easter Sunday woke up 8 had breakfast and got organised for work later by masking my fruit salad. Realised after having breakfast could of had sausage sandwich as Bianca making them for breakfast for her and Debbie, never mind. I decided that I need to get back into my running so went for run at 10ish but felt very sluggish and forgot water so had to stop a few times at water fountain but did 2.10miles. Jen came round after work and invited us to her BBQ this afternoon but unfortunately both me and Debbie on lates, but Bianca went. Work very nice and quiet only open to 24 patients but actually only had 21 patients which was good. It was one of those shifts were feel like you should be doing something but nothing to do as everything already done. Didn't get out til 22.10 as person before me took ages to handover but I still managed to get out before Debbie, so had to wait abit for her. When got thought couldn't be bothered fetching washing in then watching TV and heard it raining so had to quickly dash out to fetch it all in.
Monday woke up 7ish but back to sleep til 9 which was good since got to start on my nights tonight. I then waited around for Bianca to come back from Rhodes and then we went to city at 12 but Debbie couldn't come as at work. First stop was Michael Kors as Bianca not been yet and really likes them so wanted to see, was happy as not as expensive as expected. We then went to look at camera's as Bianca needs a new one for her trip to Alice Springs got a good deal at JB Hi-Fi. It was then to do abit more shopping as Bianca got a lot of birthdays in April so had to buy a few presents for them. It was then lunch just at the food court under Myer and abit more shopping but all I bought was camera case for camera I got for Christmas thought about time I got one. We then met Nat at the Queen Victoria Building (QVB) for coffee who ended up coming home with us as off out for tea with Bianca and Jen's friends. I unfortunately couldn't go as got my night shift to go do so instead had time to speak to Sharon to wish her happy birthday. But not received her present for me but had postal card to say ready to collect but is ridiculous as had to pay £47. As found out after sending if over $135 got to pay vat on the value and custom which is still silly when I already paid my end. At least I know in future to put under $100, for some reason Ellie was fascinated with my mouth and kept trying to poke my mouth. I then had a brief chat to mum and dad told them need to sort out what want to do NYE and had sent them some prices for cruises and restaurants, am not bothered what we do.Then had to go to do my night shift was ok only had 7 patients had a clinical review as my patient had low blood pressure but was asymptotic. I then nearly had 2 more clinical reviews as one had high temperature and one had high blood pressure but both were only borderline so didn't need to do anything.
Found out that Rachel hopefully coming over Xmas and New year so phoned Mum and dad on way home to tell them. When got home went for run with Debbie which felt very sluggish only did 1.63 miles then bed fell asleep about 10. Woke up 2.30 then went to Rhodes to collect uniform and post bianca's letters as she couldn't do as gone to Alice Springs today. I then had a quick look round at clothes and found some nice ones for Ellie and then to Coles to get a few things for tea. When back made tacos which was nice but made the guacamole had to much lime with left over mince made chilli didn't seem best. It was then to go do my nightshift realised on way to work that had email from matron at home and has agreed to give me my career break extension til may 2014. So exciting so phoned mum on way to work then tired to get hold of Sharon with no success but eventually got hold of her to tell her. At work had same patients but 8 this time and hard to communicate with one patients as Non English speaking lucky one nurse could speak his language. Had a few patients who had low blood pressures overnight but not quite clinical reviews and after water came up. After my break felt so tired and felt like was going to fall asleep asleep on table but luckily didn't but had red bull and then felt better. Also found out at about 3am that Rachel booked her trip to come see me arrives on 21st december, so looks like december will be busy. When finished was raining and I foolish forgot to fetch my umbrella so by the time I got home was very wet was nearly up to my knees. I also phoned Nanna on way home to tell her that I had been given my career break extension and she was so happy to hear my voice Once home thought saw something in letterbox was my mini eggs from mum and dad for Easter, will eat them later.
Woke up 1.30 had breakfast then sorted out a few things for moving and nought best do some hoovering. I also got an text from someone who is interested in our places sounds about right after we found somewhere new, but so happy with new place. Then go meet Debbie after work at Coles to get some things for tea what I couldn't get yesterday. When got home had a parcel from Nanna was more mini eggs and Easter card very nice as I do like mini eggs, yum yum!! I then made tea for me and Debbie salmon, zucchini, tomato and mash potatoes was so busy watching TV and playing on iPad. That some how I managed to burn the potatoes can't remember doing that before but was still eatable after a few adjustments. Walking to work decided to walk in skirt and flip flops as didn't really want to have wet clothes before I even started my shift. Work was ok busier than last night but still only had 8 patients but was a few different ones to the night before. I was on 2nd break and prefer to go on 3rd so about 3.30-4 felt so tired had my blueberry red bull but definitely prefer normal red bull. In morning I had to weigh a few of my patients think I weighed about 5 out of 10 but still done in plenty of time. On way home decided best put my flip flops on to walk home in as nothing worse than having wet shoes tomorrow.
Thursday didn't sleep well last night woke up at 12 and tried to get back to sleep but with no success. So ended up sorting out a few things and packing ready for the move next week as thought best start. I got both my parcels today and happy with all of them got Roxy cardigan, 2 dresses and a skirt from iconic. As been eyeing up the cardigan for a few weeks and thought would be good for Ayers Rock and also wanted grey dress and skirt then a tan one to go under my kaftan I got at Easter show. When Debbie got home we sorted through some of the things in the kitchen since bin day and will need doing at some point. Then chilled in front of TV and trying to use things up in freezer so had pizza, chips and garlic bread for tea. It was then to go to work to do my last night, yeh still had same patients but a few changes and working with different staff. Had a patient with chest pain but luckily wasn't anything serious but did an ECG anywhere to rule anything and Dr review. In morning had patient with low blood sugar gave hypo-kit but did not come up so gave milk with sugar and her sweets which worked.. On way home spoke to mum and dad to confirm when actually speaking on Skype as mum not replied to my text.
Friday got up 1.30 and Debbie off aswell pottered for abit then went to Rhodes to post my uniform back. But first called in at the Liberty Grove office to see Tony to drop off key as said might have someone to look round Saturday, but then told us had no interest yet. It was then to Rhodes Realty to go sign our new lease but 'Teng' struck in traffic so went for drink first. As soon as went to sign lease could tell was so much better than Liberty Grove as went through everything with us unlike Tony. Also on a good note is going to let us have keys early maybe on Thursday and can now move in Friday so can do races next Saturday. When finished went back to Rhodes to have a look round ikea to see things might need then looked in bed, bath and table found lovely bedding, as might need new one when move. It was then to go get something to eat went to new place Killa Burger Grill which is home to Sydney's finest, tastiest, freshest and BIGGEST burgers, which were good. We then went to cinema to see 'The Host' which is an American science fiction film, adapted from Stephenie Meyer's novel of the same name. Was good but in short, it's a sci-fi film that probably tries too hard to be like twilight but definitely not as good. Supposedly the book does a far better job of describing the new world than the film but was the same with twilight. When got home pay deposit for new place and set up direct debit then book Randwick races and the Colour Run. The Colour Run 5 kilometer event is a one of a kind experience that is less about speed and more about enjoying a colour crazy day with your friends and family.
