Just got home about 30 minutes ago. It wasn't the worst night I have had, but not the best either. I spent the first 7 hours or so depressed and just out of it, which was how most of my day was as well. Then about 1 am I bounced up to a low grade depression/neutral feeling.
I did find a lot of extra work to do so I wouldn't just be sitting around ruminating. I am sure my trainee was exhausted by time we got off this morning. She told me that the other person she trained with didn't do half the work I did.
You're also right it is nice not having administration there. I was talking about how I was having problems with charting in my post earlier. I took some extra time tonight and found a computer that was in a quite area to work at. I think that helped a lot.
My charge nurse also asked me to bring in a dish tonight; we are going to have a pot luck tonight. However I am ready for Monday morning; also much appreciation for writing to me
