In my 60th year and totally unimpressed with current BS going on in the world. Definitely not a ‘content creator’. Anything crossing my mind may show up on my feed…I have no filter left. Disagreement is fine.
20 days left and I’m done with acute care! I’m going to count it down. I am so ready. There’s only so much a person can deal with.

It is such a relief to have a weekend where I have nothing scheduled and don’t have to be studying like an insane person. Nice to just chill and do chores.

Went out to feed the local bird herd earlier…what a gloriously colored sky. It’s 27ºF with a 13ºF windchill right now…was colder when I took this a little before 0800. Winter solstice tomorrow. I’m ready for more daylight hours.

What a day. Offer accepted-resignation letter done to turn in tomorrow. Passed my certification test. Had to be petty and throw the 'certified case manager' on the resignation letter. I'm sitting in an online class without worrying about something not being done. I am grateful-and heartily amused.

I got my offer and accepted my new position. Everyone was saying there would be a hefty compensation drop to go to one of the regional practices. Nope! Best part? The new position is not within the same tax ID grouping, so its a termination/rehire. That means that no petty shenanigans.

Nothing like a LOT of pizza and a heavy pour of dolce rosso to make your mood lighten! For the moment-it is all good!

You know you’ve made the correct decision when you sleep well after saying yes or no. I slept like a brick. I feel calm, collected and resolute. No anxiety, no stress, no doubt. It’s been a long time coming. I’ve been in a toxic work environment for a very long time. It’s time to move on.

Well, I came I saw, I got informed I got my position I interviewed for on Friday. I'm going to be doing all sorts of interesting stuff at the pain clinic, less than ten minutes from home. I am one happy camper!

7º with a -6º windchill. It was double digits below zero when I got up. Winter has arrived. Oh but we’re in Michigan-it’s supposed to be in 40’s by the end of the week.

I have an interview at 0900 on my birthday. And the interviewer is coming out to Charlotte to meet me. I am thrilled how things did a 180 for me. Now I need to figure out my wardrobe….

Just applied for a transfer out to the local hospital from the main. 4-10's and no weekends/holidays and back in pain management? Yes please. It's a neurology/pain management office. My neurologist covers that side and I know the pain management doc.

Let it snow! This is over freezing rain. What a good week to be on stay-cation. We put the planned out of town jaunts on hold. Neither of us wanted to drive. The Mr. Is out shoveling round one.

The cold has totally kicked our plans for the week off. Neither of us wants any part of outside at the moment. That’s not a bad thing!

I’m camped in a massage chair getting a pedicure. People are being some kind of way. A customer lost their shit because the boss lady broke down costs for her after she asked about it. Really, you are going to go off when your question gets answered?!?! Just WTF?

Thursday survived. I am one tired person. I have a huge to-do list for tomorrow morning on my planner. Trying to decide if I just want to call it and g throw myself in bed…but it’s too early and I’d just be up at 0300 again…

Whoever packed up my Unfolding Path Tarot at Amazon, threw a cheapo holographic ‘A. E. Waite Tarot’ in with my order. Shrink wrapped and everything. I went back and checked. I didn’t order it and I couldn’t even find it…well now the story is too good, and I have to keep it!

The moon woke me up at about 3:30. It’s going to be a LONG day. The twice a week dog and pony show ‘teams’ meeting is this afternoon. I’m not in the mood. Frankly, I think I’ve come up with one piece of information I could use in the 18 months or two years we’ve been doing them.

Breakfast for dinner. Cheddar scrambled eggs, bacon and toast. All to get bacon for a club sandwich for lunch tomorrow. He’s busy cooking since it was what he wanted. My stomach has not been user friendly for a couple days-I hope this sits ok, because it smells wonderful.

Here’s to a blessed last month of the year…2025 has been a piece of work. That much I know for sure. May we all take stock of the good, the bad and the ugly…and move toward the year’s end with ease…
