Fed up

Sigh. I'm just feeling a bit fed up tonight. I've had one of those days. It was my last day on this placement, and I'm feeling quite sad about leaving - the staff and children are all so amazing. The day didn't exactly go smoothly either. We had to call out two ambulances today, for two different reasons. Both situations were conducted fairly calmly, but it just completely drained me. The second one was right at the end of the day, I was all ready to go, and then I had to stay for an extra half hour or so to deal with it all. With these events and lots of visitors, the day was very busy and I was desperately trying to get the last bits of my big annoying folder signed off and done. The staff all kept on saying goodbye to me, and I was getting emotional inside, cos I didn't really want to leave.

My leg has been aching today a lot more than normal. I have been trying to rest it as much as possible, by catching the bus to work, etc, but today it was aching anyway. The only time it wasn't aching was when I was running/walking fast down the corridor with an oxygen cylinder - its amazing what a bit of adrenaline will do! I am feeling very tired generally and the hectic day at work didn't help.

And then I came home from work to discover that my nicely laid plans, will have to completely disrupted. I like being organised and planning ahead for stuff. But sometimes I plan ahead too much, which can be a bad thing. Something important has just come up and wrecked up all my plans. Its just a pain. And now I'm having to hope that someone else hasn't been quite so organised, to help sort out the mess.

Hmm..... I'm going to have an early night tonight and try to have a restful weekend. I feel like I definately need it.
