updates!

I haven't been keeping up very well since I started working and got sick.  I should get back on track.
So here's the latest... in a nutshell.  I'm not sure anyone wants to read 8 pages on what I've been doing for the past week or so.
I found out that Delta has a bar poker league!  I was so excited!  I love to play texas hold-em, and it's such a great way to meet people.  I still remember all my poker buddies in Florida, and still talk to some of them on a semi regular basis.  So my first night at poker some guy is flirting with me.  I don't like to date a lot at poker, because it's my hang out and I don't want to make it weird.  But he was persistent, and funny, and I think I like him.  So now we've been hanging out together every day since.  Hmmm, I wasn't here long before I met someone interesting.
I've started both jobs.  Orientation is coming along in Delta.  My first 3 days shifts were pretty busy, which is a great way to learn.  I had a couple slow nights, good for getting paperwork done.  I called in sick Thursday, finally can't take the coughing all the time.  I think lots of rest is helping.  Lots of rest is the only option since I can't catch my breath when I am in motion.   I had a couple things I was going to get done today, but I have decided to just stay in and have a nice "movie/computer" day.
I went to the ER and have some doubts about it.  I was supposed to be given a start of antibiotics, which I didn't get.  I called and went back down, and no one has gotten back to me.  This scares me, with my history of bronchitis and pnuemonia.  then again, no one asked for my medical history in the ER.  Hmmmmmmmm.
I did hospital orientation in Montrose.  So far so good.  I haven't been to the unit yet, so I can't really give an opinion on anything yet.
I guess we'll see.
I am adjusting to small town life.  It's pretty much what I expected.  There are pro's and con's, but overall I like it.  I can't say everyone here has been overly friendly.  Business owners are, and waitresses, etc.  The rest will come in time, I'm sure.  I'll get to know people.  Many of the people I work with don't live here in Delta, but in surrounding towns.  Hanging out with a local helps me meet people.
I'm not sure I'll leave the house today, unless I try to go play a game of poker later.  I am getting a little cabin fever here.

More to come!
