Busy Week

So this looks like it's going to be a very busy week for me. I worked Monday night which was sort of a waste but the pay will be good. We had one patient all night. I was tired and not feeling well and I was just orienting with the guy who is finishing up his week there and then will be leaving. I had planned sort of to go home a couple hours early since it was so slow but then he disappeared somewhere (to sleep I'm pretty sure) and didn't come back until shift change. Asshole.
I took tonight (Tues) off and then will be working Wed, Thur, Fri and Sat nights. I figured since I can't go home for Christmas than I might as well work and get the overtime. Plus I will be the only one for the position until the 1st so there is over time available. I'm going to try to pick up as much as possible in the next 2 weeks so that I can hopefully get caught up on my bills. That would relieve a lot of stress.
Sadie is settling in just fine. She hasn't had any more seizures since Friday which is good.
I'm trying to get my addresses changed on many of my accounts and such. I called one of my credit cards to change my address and she had to ask me a bunch of security questions to verify that it really was me. Talk about obscure questions. She asked my moms age (good thing I know she is 20 years older than I am). She asked about some county that I knew nothing about. She asked about the color of a car I owned in 1997 (which was long before the credit card existed) and what county a previous address had been in which was also from 1997-2001). I guess I proved myself as they did change the address.
Not much else happening in my world. Just work and trying to get unpacked and settled. My house is still a wreck but it's getting better slowly. I was so happy the other night to finally throw out the wonky mattress. No more beds with hernias. It's a nice feeling to settle in some again.
I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!!!

One patient?! The units always seem to get empty before a big holiday. Sounds like your preceptor has decided he's already done with work....

How on earth does a cc company know the color of your car in '97?
