EXTRA SHIFT REDUX

In all fairness, I really can't complain about the extra shifts. They may be time-consuming, but at the same time, remember where I am. The work isn't that acute. 20 hours of overtime a week with only 2 extra shifts isn't a bad deal. Especially when I'm doing different stuff. ER is the day job. PACU and ICU are the extras. A finger in every pie. Can't get bored like that! Plus who doesn't have a few extra bills to pay or need new tires or a vacation down the line? Or a chronically needy and broke TeenQueen?

And yes.....I could be on the boat. But let me let you in on a little secret about the Florida Keys--It's windy in the winter and spring. The skies are beautiful but........The sea is a little rougher than what I'd like. Once it kicks up 3-5 foot waves, it's barf-o-mania for me. You northern folk, hardy like you are, will go out and make a day of it. I'm a little spoiled.....
