I had my information session today. By the sounds of things it will still be a couple weeks before I actually start working in this "work trial" because the person they need to meet with at the hospital where I'll be working is on holidays until next week.

I'm eager to start working on my hours, so if they hear of something else I can do in the meantime they will get me into it, otherwise not for a couple of weeks.

The nice thing is that this will give me experience in an area where I haven't been able to get hired in before because of the "catch 22" of needing experience but can't get hired into the position to gain experience.  So it will open up my prospects some more.  Right now I have been working in acute medicine and surgery, which is really physically demanding and it's been taking it's toll on my back, so I'd like to stay in nursing but do something more on the intellectual side rather than at the patient's beside and clinical research has always interested me.  So we'll see where it leads.  So I guess you're stuck with me for a couple more weeks!

Bagginsbill has given me access to his website so that I can set up a bookmarks section that I can easily update it as needed instead of having to maintain an ongoing forum thread.  So I'm going to try and get those done, but it will be slow going.  I injured my neck and shoulder at the gym and have been going to the chiropractor and haven't been able to sit at the computer for very long. Bending my arm to type causes it to go completely numb.  But I'll do my best to get them done. Most of it will be just copy/pasting.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
