Away we go…Friday July 3, 2009
Getting ready to work three 12 hour shifts in a row. ARRGH!!
I work every Sat, Sun and Wednesday nights, 12 hour shifts. Occasionally a holiday will fall on a Saturday. Which would be great if I worked day shift, but I don’t. When you work nights, the holiday falls the night before. Hence my 3 twelves in a row. (crying) Well, at least it’s holiday pay. I’m trying to put a positive spin on it somehow.
Holiday + heat + swimming + alcohol + fire + fireworks = super busy ER. Should be interesting. No breaks, all standing. I’m holding a pity party right now.
I’ve laid out my meals in the fridge. Lots of low point snacks, even fat free half and half for the coffee I drink at work. My son has hidden my debit card and I have no cash. Recipe for success right? That’s what I’m shooting for.
Wish me luck, and same to you.
I feel your pain… however I usually do 4 12hrs… good luck, smile and it will eventually come to an end…
