Hats

HATS! Currently I am sporting a few different hats, they can be a tad heavy and sometimes overwhelming but eventually my goals will be accomplished and hat juggling shall be put to rest. None of which are as hidious as Princess Beatrices :)

Hat 1: I got a phone call today from the charge nurse on the IPU (in patient psychiatric unit) offering me one of three coveted ESN(employed student nurse) positions!!! I said Yes!

Hat 2: I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Assistant on the IPU! Love it I get to entertain and support the patients in the IPU.

Hat 3: I am 11 months away from being a Registered Psychiatric Nurse and this entails more school work than I ever could have imagined.

Hat 4: I am doing my clinical on the Med/Surg floor which terrifies and excites me each day.

Hat 5: I have temporarily retired this hat of hairdresser as I only have 7 days in my week :( Except of course for my children who shall always have coiffed hair!

Hat 6: I am a mother to the most awesome kids, this of course is my favourite hat! They make the above 5 worth all the sleepless nights and night shifts(which by the way are not so fun to recover from).

Hat 7: I am a wife to a wonderful man!

I am looking forward to the future and I am blessed to have the opportunities to be employed with awesome nursing jobs while in school and I cannot wait to be done essays, calculations and post conferences!!!

I was thinking of taking pics in all my different roles, but alas I cannot find my camera and so you will have to imagine :) As a hint they typically involve scrubs, minimal makeup, nursing clogs and pics of my kids in my pocket.
