Well ... No Traffic

Got out of work so late, traffic was light.  That's the good.

The bad is spent the last 2 hours of work "coding" a young patient.  Plays with your mind.  I don't think she will survive.

Sadly reinforces my resolve to do some "living" now ... life is short.  (I know you see what you look for, but it's all too easy to see that message in a hospital.)

I have my exit plan from work.  Good plan, still nervous.  I'll give notice after Labor Day and give 4 weeks.  My last day will be September 30 or October 3 (depending on a couple of things at work).  I feel like I'll be hated.  Probably extreme thinking, but a cold shoulder will make me sad.  Leaving for other reasons would be excepted.  Leaving to have FUN ... leaving during a shortage ... leaving after my 7 week health issue ... not going to be well received.  It will be part of a growing strain on the nurses in the department.

But I don't need to worry and over-think this for now.  Still have all of August to work "normally."

Okay ... enough heavy stuff.  Here's the fluff!

Knee is slowly improving.
Back is also feeling better (have to be careful in tabata today).
Cold sore is healing but looks like a UGLY ASS sitting on my lip.  Red, yellow, scales, wet, big, gross.  Lovely.  (We have new neighbor ... was going to bring a welcome treat ... not this week lol ... scare them off!)

Best part of today ... Korean Bath House with a friend.  Foot massages, relaxing in salt and mineral huts, just experiencing a different culture.  I've been before ... it's neat.  I don't do the naked part.  Maybe someday.  I'd do it if I wasn't with a friend.  Too much exposure for me!

They have amazing food too.  I will struggle to find something compliant.  I don't want to eat crappy - still working on that feeling-better thing.  I can probably find something.

Okay off to get this day started.
