Details? You want details?
The wonderfully, spectacularly exciting job I was offered yesterday is at the DL hospital, in the ICU. It's part time, with the option to pick up more hours if I would like. I'm working way more than I would like to be right now, so more time at home will be wonderful. I'm not sure, but I think it'll be mostly night shifts and I'll have to work every other weekend. That'll be a change, but right now, I'm perfectly willing to work with it! Fortunately Eric can be relatively flexible with his work as well. Benifits and a pay raise help make that more persuasive as well:)
I won't be starting until mid-December, in order to give my current employer time to make the needed changes in their staffing. Plus it'll give me time to review all the nursing knowledge I haven't really used in the last year...
I'm incredibly excited about this move. It'll be challenging, (something I have virtually NONE of in my current job) and the learning curve will be steep. I'm pretty sure the first months will be hard and that at times I'll wonder what I've got myself into. But I'm ok with that.
The downside is that I'll be starting about a week before Christmas...talk about some hectic holidays!
Here's to good changes!

congrats! I checked your blog Monday, but no news. Happy to hear you got the job!
Yes, they kept me waiting until 3:45 Tuesday. That should be considered cruel and unusual punishment. Lets just say my kids kept their distance....(kidding, the fury was more inward than that...)
Congratulations! That is so exciting for you!!! Any chance you want to (or are able to) go for a girls weekend before you start your new job?
