Happy 10 years to us! My best friend and father to my children ❤️

I’ve been so quiet but I’m trying to adjust to being in blue. I’ve had 2 days off and I’m on edge all the time thinking did I do this, that or the other. I love my job I just don’t know if my brain is coping or if it’s the transition and it will get easier. 😅

Happy New Year to everyone! Currently curled up in bed with a hot lemsip and I will likely be asleep in an hour! Hope it’s a good one for everyone 🤞🏻🎉

I've had a lovely 2 days off work and Christmas with my family. Although no downtime with two younguns. As of tomorrow I am in 3, off 1 then in 3. 😴
My other half gifted these to me and I really need the noise cancellation as Im struggling at the minute so looking forward to testing them out!

Going to carry on this as I feel I need it with the transition from StN to RN.

I’m a very lucky woman 🥰

Celebrating a whole month of being a Registered Community Nurse and some wind down after a hectic week!

Much needed date night seeing #wicked at the theatre!
Such an amazing show! 🧹 One day I will get to go to broadway 🤞😃

I am. I'll have a look, thank you ☺️

I've had a difficult transition leading to an IBS flare-up, which I am now struggling with. There are lots of different factors contributing, but the transition from student to RN isn't great, especially for my autistic/ADHD brain. But im soldiering on and hoping it all feels ok soon!

Lovely surprise in the post today. 🥹

Soooooo excited!! Date night for me and the other half in the stalls! ❤️

I completely agree. Whilst I found some topics repetitive and could be mundane, the skills learnt to do those essays at each level is fundamental for the role of a nurse - no matter what job/area you end up in.

I also find the results shocking (but also true from experience) for placement experiences, financial difficulties and the mental health difficulties. Myself and friends describe our training as traumatic mainly due to placement experiences. There’s so much that needs to change for StNs.

IMO the academic level was crucial to learn the critical thinking required. However, I am an academic type of person but also a practical learner. I know of people who struggled with some taking many attempts to pass each assignment. I didn’t understand how they made the entry requirements.

What. A. Day. First day on my own and the amount of pressure of being THE RN is immense 😅
I am exhausted. 😴

You need the starter packs! I’ve shared some on my timeline and you can just follow all ☺️ helps get you started!
