More work and running

Tuesday 9th july woke up about 8ish breakfast chilled for abit before going to the gym to meet BJ at 10 am to go through some exercises. He had me using the foam roller which is to help improve flexibility, balance, strength and muscular awareness. I could certainly feel it on my calves and glutes when using the foam roller, he also had me on the treadmill but not turned. Was there about hour and half and signed up for 5 weeks to have 2 lessons a week which will hopefully help with my calve pain. It was then to flight centre to sort out our Adelaide trip this weekend and was maybe a little bit more expensive than I hoped. But at least we get to do Kangaroo Island which is the main reason why I wanted to go to Adelaide as me and Debbie if I did Ayers Rock then she would do Kanagroo Island. Got back just before 12.30 shower and then go to work only open to 24 patients so me and another staff 'Jiewen' got moved to 5 North. Me and Jiewen were on the same side with another nurse to look after12 patients and had a nice shift. May then gave me a lift home and once home was not tired so watched TV for abit then trust me to fall asleep on the sofa and eventually got to bed at 12.30. Then woke up 3ish and got up at 7ish had breakfast updated blog for abit. I then thought I best go for my planned 3 mile run at 9ish and managed to do 3.52 miles non-stop. Back shower and then go to Ikea to get picture frame for picture Bianca got me for my birthday, which looked nice in frame. Then to Coles to get a few things and then to flight centre to pick up tickets for Adelaide. By time got home was 11ish so update blog some more and catch up on Masterchef Encore since missed yesterday. Then time to go to work only had 5 staff for 18 patients so we had 9 patients on our side with 2 discharges. Am sure I was on the busiest side as had person having blood products,one needing 2hourly checks and one on 4 hourly observations. Only finished 10 minutes late and May gave me lift home once home speak to Lynne as Debbie already in bed. Was so cold so made hot water bottle then fell asleep on sofa and made it to bed 12ish. Woke up during the night but luckily went back to sleep til 9ish and get up have breakfast. Go for my planned 9.5 mile run at 10ish and did 7.14 miles got stitch and calve but at least managed to run it all. After run come back chilled for abit then left for work early to get some food got raspberry bread was good, but we were still managed to be at work early. Work very busy as soon as start go into patient to change, inservice break then realise AM shift not done 2 o'clock medications luckily was only a few. So felt like constantly trying to catch and I then had to do the S4/8 round which seemed to take forever, so felt guilty for leaving Meg for so long. Had 2 admissions luckily we had a student who did most of the observations and later on had a few bed changes. Me and meg handed over together as didn't feel like I knew the patients that well finish at 10.10 and Debbie already finished waiting for me. Walked home and straight to bed and couldn't get to sleep at first and woke up in plenty of time for work. Work very busy had debriefing regarding one of our patients was that busy didn't even have chance to ask if could work though lunch. So went for my lunch at 2.30 but at least still managed to finish on time.
