I went to a lot of different schools growing up. We moved a lot and eventually I kind of came to think of myself as the perpetual "new girl". I am not saying that I liked that feeling of being the "new girl" but I got used to it and I think that I learned to be more adaptable than maybe I would have otherwise.
Yesterday, I felt like the "new girl" again as I started a new job. I have to say, the day went quite well. I've got several days of orientation to complete before actual training at the bedside begins but I'm already feeling like I am where I am supposed to be right now. I no longer expect anything to be permanent; I have learned that some things are just for a time. Right now, though, I am thrilled for this opportunity.
Before I left this morning I enjoyed seeing a note on my bathroom mirror, left there by Maria when they visited the evening before.
When I got home from work last night, Sam was so sweet and asked me all about my day. I don't know how people manage when they don't have great family for their support system. I am so very grateful for mine. I received well wishes from Ben and Sara in North Carolina, my mother-in-law in Montana and many friends as well. I had a lovely send-off hug this morning as my husband sent me on my way feeling confident. I really am blessed!
