*sigh*
Chocolate doesn't happen often enough.
So the agency has cut our wages. No notice, no apology, no explanation [though it supposedly has to do with the cuts in reimbursement due to the budget, either state or federal, take your pick]. Just cut.
"Only" $1.20 an hour cut. Only.
So, yeah.
Cruising Craigslist, other nursing agencies, LinkedIn, Indeed.com; revamping the résumé again; looking for part-time and short-hour work. I'm pretty sure I'll figure this out, but jeepers, it's discouraging right now.
AND the bookshop's still open, after all.
[At least the torn biceps from two years ago is healed, and the foot/ankle injury is, so far, still not recurring, though the ankle's weak and if it gets swollen it's enough to put me in bed for the day with the pain. Annoying, that. And I've still got my Anat Baniel DVDs to do lessons from, which helps everything get more flexible, more responsive, and stronger. So that's something. And there are still black berries on the bushes, and apples on the trees. So that's happy.]
Anyway. Wish me luck. And if you have a nurse in your life, give them a little extra hug or something, yeah? I'm lucky to have friends who care about me, and that I still love being an RN even with the nonsense going on these days.
