grateful but bummed

I am in a funk. I have a job which took a year to find. THANK GOD! However, they have greatly reduced their surgical cases. I have not worked even one shift this month. Money is tight. The nurse with narcotic restrictions will be called off first. I get that.

I am stuck at home, its winter, we have all been sick on/off, and we are bored.

I am letting my past get me down. I feel so inadequate. Logically I know I have overcome sooo much, worked so hard, and am on the right path. Yet.. here I am so negative. All of the time. I am letting this all get to me this month.

I am trying to work out more, go outside when its not bitterly cold, see friends when able, and pull myself out of this mood.

I suppose this is a touch of depression or winter blues.

    Ever thought of tele nursing for an insurance company? Many large law firms have nurses on board. If your restricted there are options

    Hope you made it through winter

    I did! Its funny you responded to this. I am working more hours now and just had my narcotic restrictions lifted. It feels so freeing to be able to be a fully functioning nurse again. I am so happy and proud of myself that I have been able to come this far.
