Work only 4 days

Woke up 7.30ish not sure why when on late today, Nat from home texted and thinking of coming to work in Australia, how exciting.. Breakfast then updated blog as so behind with and caught up on breakfast news. Went to gym at 10.30 go on rower for 10mins, cross trainer 13 mins, stretches and sit ups. Thought would ask instructor about my calf pain didn't recommend taking magnesium will go though some exercises with me tomorrow. Then to Coles to get my grapes and some yoghurts, home have lunch chilli with spinach with a fried egg on top was quite good then do washing as will need gym stuff. Work ok only open to 24 patients had 3 admissions but only had 6 staff. Thursday 30th up 7.30 not sure why when didn't need to be til at least 9, so just updated blog. Gym at 10 to meet with gym instructor BJ to go through some calf exercises was fun using roller and really felt on my left calf. Then quickly to Rhodes after as need bananas and something for lunch got wraps with hummus and carrot was good used sandwich toaster for 1st time. Work not too bad still only open to 24 patients but had 3 admissions/transfers on our side handover wasn't the best but only 7 shifts to work til go on holiday.
Friday woke up 7.30 but luckily went back to sleep til 9 then get up and go for run. According to my running plan I only had to do 3 miles but managed to do 4.03 miles non stop. Work seemed nice at first but came back from tea break to a MET call as patient had low oxygen saturations and high pulse, patient ended up going to ICU. Then had a few patients with high temperatures which is just normal for our ward I handover 1st and got out early as on early tomorrow. Phoned mum on way home to say rockcliffe spa looked ghost, when home not tired so watched TV and wine bed 11ish. Saturday 1st June 1st day off winter and on a early woke up 5.30 so had time for cup of tea before leave for work. Work was ok at first and fourth day working with same nurse but then after morning tea was busy had 2 admissions from ICU and palliative. The palliative patient probably shouldn't of been moved and the the one from ICU had blocked PICC line, couldn't get to work. We had another line which wasn't working but the senior nurse got it to work so didn't think would finish on time but did. On way home went to target as wanted to get a few things nothing too exciting just chopping board, baking tray and tongs. Then home start cooking did wedges and some new dish which found in recipe book a mixed bean and tomato gratin was ok.
