I finished up my orientation period at my new job. Starting next week I'm on my own. Of course there will always be other nurses around at this job so that I can ask questions. The last office I was at was not really my favorite of the ones I've been to, but it wasn't awful. I am still waiting for my schedule though, so, I don't even know where I'll be next week. The awesome thing about being contingent is that I can make my own schedule. For example, I know the kids will be off school for MLK day next month, so I can choose not to pick up that day. I'm also looking forward to only working 2-3 days a week. :)
I did not end up finishing up my Christmas shopping as early as I would have liked, but I got all finished up yesterday (mainly taking the kids out to shop for presents from them). Today, I will finish up my wrapping. I haven't had a whole lot of time to devote to it yet. I spent some time last week while I was sick getting started, then wrapped a few last night. I will be done before Christmas Eve, though, that's for sure. ;)
