Goodbye and Hello

Yesterday was an emotional roller coaster ride that I was not prepared for.

I have been sitting on pins and needles for weeks, getting ready for my transition out of Allergy and into my Employee Health roll. Making sure to pass on any last minute details to my coworker, packing up all my stuff here and there and just making sure that I did not leave anything behind that I really needed. I was all set yesterday morning to put in my last day as an Allergy RN but when the last half of the day started winding down I felt the tears start to come.

I have spent the last 3 years in the department, making it a home for me and my patients. I have not always loved every second of it but I have valued every moment. I’ve learned and grown out of the challenges and experiences that I faced in that department. Actually, without allergy I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to do the job before me now.

So last night I handed my key over to Allergy and turned off those shot room lights one last time. I came home and snuggled my babies and kissed my husband and thanked God that I have such a great life.

This morning I walked into my new office and OH BOY……This is a great new place!!!!! New memories to make, new friends and old friends and just a whole new world of opportunity. I’m so excited to be here!!! Can’t wait for this next chapter to begin!
