Time Off

After much soul searching and deep discussions with my wonderful husband, I have decided to take some time off work after surgery. I need some time to regroup and do some thinking about my career, my life, and where I'm going next. I was quite shell-shocked yesterday with Hayden's birth and Vanessa's mom treating me the way she did. I have never been escorted out of a patient's room by security.....especially since I did nothing wrong.....I only wanted to see and meet the one person I waited 9 months to meet...my grandson. The day only went further downhill when I was reprimanded by my manager after complaints by Vanessa's family. I wish I understood why. But I suppose it is not for me to know why. The butterflies were right. The changes they warned me of are now coming to pass, and I am seriously considering a travel job to get me away from things for awhile. After discussions about this with my husband, he has agreed he can take a layoff from his job and go with me wherever I am assigned to go. We shall see about this. One day at a time.......let's get through surgery first and then see what new adventure awaits.
