Just applied for some new jobs! Also, exercise nazi mode: ENGAGED!
I graduated with my Masters in Health Informatics 1.5 years ago. The VA doesn't seem to eager to utilize me in this capacity, even though they paid to send me to school. I am still in the ICU as a staff nurse. I think I've seen enough poo and unhealthy habits to last a lifetime. I want to use my degree.
Its just strangely liberating, even though I just sent out a few resumes...I feel like I have started something positive. Also, tomorrow...I begin to exercise like I mean it. I have been half assing it and this is why my scale isn't budging.
CHANGE is coming!! Wish me luck!!

^^^^Thanks KU! Wish I had this as a job for my facility....perhaps I should create one... My own bariatric support group for women and male vets!!! That's a swell idea! Best of luck that you get it! You will be a wealth of info when you report your findings back to us after you rock that job!!!
Thanks to all for the well wishes! I need to get my lazy ass in gear.

We are surgery sisters KU! Only 3 days apart. Add me as a friend! We need to be friends. And now you have me thinking I need to hit up for a federal grant for a bariatric facility at my VA!

Thanks everyone! (Bob, not everyone would agree with you I think! It's hard to get a feel for ppl in the written word. And I think some find me offensive because I just say what's on my mind. I wonder if it would make any difference to know I was usually laughing, I am NOT a serious person and find laughter in everything.)
