It's finally over! My first week on the new job. That always sucks. It's a great job, don't get me wrong, but the first week at any new job is stressful. It's been over 10 years since I have worked for this doctor's office, but I have worked there before so that gives me a great advantage over the other couple of medical staff who started a few weeks ago. By then end of my first day I was doing things on my own because it was all coming back to me, but I do still have a lot of questions. And we are pretty spoiled by the doctors at this job! It's pretty great. The downside: the drive. 35 miles each way; a 45 minute drive. I know a lot of people do this everyday, but when you are not used to it, it sucks!
We listed our house and we are having an open house next Saturday. We started looking at houses this week. We may need to change our minds about where we move to because moving where my hubby wants to move to still leaves me with a 25 mile each way commute. But he will have no commute, and he has had to commute about 25 miles each way every day for the last 4 years, so it is a better option. Moving even closer to my job than he has been willing to look will only be about 15 miles for him to drive to work and about 5 miles for me. The houses are also less expensive. With gas at $4 a gallon now, we're going to have to choose the lesser of 2 evils I guess. And I honestly don't know what that is.
Yesterday I worked in a satellite clinic, so I rode with the doctor, another nurse and front desk staff to the clinic 2 hours each way. I am almost done with Isabel's socks. I decided to make them anklets; I think they will be very cute that way. That's the nice thing about working toe-up -- you can stop when you want!
