Our New Home

:)

We are closing on our house on April 16th! We got the house we loved and at a great price. We also got the seller to fix quite a few things prior to closing. We are ecstatic! I have been shopping and we have everything we could ever need for the kitchen. We also bought ourselves a kitchen table.

When we move, there are a few things that I want to do. Both bathrooms need a lot of work and since we aren't desperate to move, I was thinking that we could do at least one before we move in. I already have the plans and even bought shower curtains.

Work is going really well. I finished orienting with antepartum patients and returned to a mother-baby assignment. A lot of our antepartum patients were long-term. During my orientation, we were able to send one home on bedrest at 32 weeks. Two others delivered though. One at 33 weeks and one at 24 weeks. They both have a long road ahead of them.

Then, last Sunday night I moved to nights! I was absolutely terrified of staying up all night and it was hard. I slept for a few hours before I went in but was still dragging. 5-6:30am was the hardest time. I was nodding off and tried walking the halls but that didn't work out. I was still falling asleep. I got a small second wind when I saw the day shift staff walk onto the floor. I also did pretty well driving home until I was about 2 streets away from home.

I am working another night shift tomorrow and the following night too. This is my first time doing two nights in a row so we will see how that goes!
