I'm officially an Irish nurse!

Well, it's official, I got my registration in the mail yesterday. I'm officially on the register for An Bord Altrainas (the Irish Nursing Board). Now I can stop being so passive and start ruffling feathers at work and they can't do anything about it. 

I had a rather eventful weekend. Thursday night I went to Estelle and Jay Z with Chandra at the RDS. It was a good show, not very packed. Friday, Jen convinced us to go to The Hoodoo Gurus (an '80's Aussie band) at The Button Factory. Also a good time. One of the pictures is her with the lead singer. Saturday, we decided to go to see Morrissey. It was at the old Royal Hospital which is now the modern art museum. It was outside on the grounds. The weather (mostly) cooperated. He put on a good show. 

Now that I'm all done with my work orientation/adaptation I have to start working weekends (boo). I worked my first couple of nights this week and it made me a much happier person. I know my educator doesn't want me working nights for the next few months (or as few as possible) but hopefully once that's done I can work straight nights or mostly nights. I'm working this weekend so there probably won't be much to report. 

My old weekend work crew from Regions sent me a fabulous care package for which I am so grateful. I have already utilized the Burn Center curly straw as you can see. I'm sure various other items from the package will show up around Dublin and in pictures soon.
