This past Thursday, Adam accepted a job in Little Rock with a public accounting firm, so we will be moving in late May/early June! We actually drove down to Little Rock yesterday for a Razorback game, and drove around some. It is so big to me! It will definitely be so different from Fayetteville, but we are excited about this new adventure! Now, I guess the next thing will be for me to find a job there, which is overwhelming to think about already.
The leaves have started to change into their beautiful fall colors- if only the weather would STAY cool. It was so warm today. I can't wait for the cold, I am ready!
One of my clinicals is in a nursing home here in Fayetteville, and I am having a hard time enjoying it. Every week, I discover things that are not quite how they should be, or nurses who don't do what they are supposed to. It frustrates and angers me, because I just don't understand how this is going on, and no one seems to care because it is a 'long-term facility'. What does that mean??! Anyway, sometimes I wonder if I should work in a nursing home so that I could take care of the residents and push people to raise their standards in their caregiving. It breaks my heart, and I'm sure I could go on and on about this. I love caring for these residents and helping them. I hope that I do not become like these nurses after I have been out in the real world for a few years. I mean, I understand that everything is not 'by the book' but...sometimes I wonder why these people are even nurses?
