Well, I was just about at my wits end...I went to my boss and told her how I was feeling about my coworker and we brought her into the office and we chatted, but I really was blowing things out of proportion, or so she said...

Anyway, we are going to switch sides of the unit on a monthly basis.  I am looking forward to it.

My Co-Worker

Posted on May 14th, 2008 by Amy : Trying to Find Myself Amy
I am trying very hard to be nice and polite, but I am finding it harder all the time.  I have been having problems living at home with my husband, daughter, two dogs, and living in my mother-in-law's house with her!

I have a tendency to sleep in late, that is just me.  With my depressed self and all, I sleep every moment I get is spent sleeping!  So I was late a couple of times at work... Instead of suspending me which I was very thankful for, my nurse manager asked if I wanted to start later?  I didn't care.

Well now, I start @ 9AM and I had to take my brother to the bus stop for my mom because she was starting a new job for the first time in 12 years, so I came to work right after, which was 8AM-ish; She is bitching and moaning because I get to do whatever I want and she thinks that I can just do this and that and nothing is going to be said about it...

I have been employed at this job for 7 years, same floor, same position, I bend-over-backwards for them, and this is what I get?  The same co-worker that was saying all this left me high and dry about 2 weeks ago, not on purpose, but because she was ill in the hospital and then at home.  I worked by myself for a week and 1/2!!!!  And she complains because I am 15 minutes to 1 hour late, she doesn't even know what I went through that week!

I had to get that out there, thanks to all for listening...

The Head Doctor

Posted on May 8th, 2008 by Amy : Trying to Find Myself Amy
So, I went to the head doctor today.  He says, I have what is called major depressive disorder.  I am just happy that he is going to put me back on my old medicine.  I have been asking for 2 1/2 years now and my family MD and OB/GYN wouldn't even think of it!!!  "Paxil CR is too dangerous for a fetus"!  I didn't know what was worse, me being insane or risking a baby's life?!

Anyway, I have to finish my Prozac for 2 more weeks, then I can start my Paxil CR.

Can't wait, and just in time to be cool, calm and collected to start school again.

Got my acceptance letter for Penn State Berks Campus

Posted on May 6th, 2008 by Amy : Trying to Find Myself Amy
    I am very excited that I got my acceptance letter for college.  I am not new to the college thing, but they did have me on pins and needles for about a month waiting for something to come in the mail.  I went to Alvernia College 2001-2004, no degree, but I have 106 credits to show for it.  I know, stupid idiot!!!

    I am just wondering now how will I pay for school?  I work at a hospital full-time, but over half of my pay goes to child-care, taxes, and I have to eat something!  I mean, I don't know if I can get a loan; I am already owing $20,000+ in loans from when I went previously.  I just hope something happens that I don't have to worry anymore.
