Victoria and TN Oncology

I had dinner Friday evening with an old friend from Vanderbilt. Victoria is one of those friends that you know is always there for you, even though you may not speak every day, or even every week. We talked nonstop for an hour and a half, catching up on everything in our lives from the past year. I didn't realize how much I had missed her. Happy Birthday Victoria!
I love you girl!

I've been very busy with the new job at TN Oncology .....and I absolutely love it!! The nurses there are great and very helpful. I like the fact that the company has a "no gossip" policy. That is something I have noticed...I never hear anyone talking about anyone else behind their back. Everyone seems to get along like one big family ( including the doctors). This next week I will be in class to get my chemotherapy certification. I am so excited! I have been learning how the clinic runs and getting to know the patients. I think I have conquered their computer charting, their IV pumps, and Pyxis machine. All that is left is learning to mix the chemo drugs. It looks fairly easy, but there is some math involved and naturally I worry about mixing up the wrong dose of something. Those chemo drugs are very expensive too, so there's no room for waste. I worry about that. Maybe I worry too much. When I left my job at the nursing home, I agreed to stay PRN and work one weekend a month for them, but I just can't bring myself to actually do it. I think of pushing that med cart up and down the hall and dealing with all the BS in that place and it makes me cringe. I just can't do it.
Well, I guess that's all I have to tell for now. I'll try to update a little more often.
