Bring a Sweater


            Traffic right now on I-15 is a beast.  It’s moment like this when I’m glad I’m not driving, but rather spending my time [somewhat] more productively.  My lessons learned from today are these:
1.      I need to bring a sweater to work.  Not only is it getting colder in the early morning hours, but it’s also freezing at the hospital. 
2.      Typically, I’m a quick learner.  I pick up tricks and shortcuts for greater efficiency.  My mind usually does a good job sorting through new information and procedures.  Except for billing.  After a week of practice with charting patient info, I’m finally starting to get it…
3.      I want to be just like my supervisor Kristin…and I told her!
4.      Don’t take a shower at night, sleep on it while it’s drying, attempt to curl it, and then change your mind by straightening it back.  It only results in a pony-tail
5.      I stress a lot about little things (I knew this before, but to be reminded of it is only more stressful.)
6.      Gratitude, perspective, and optimism go a long way.
7.      If we exercise faith in Christ, He really does strengthen us to carry our burdens, that they may be light. (Mosiah 24:14-15)
8.      There are some things I can’t control—like how late the bus may be running.  I’m stuck.  And I may as well learn to sit back and enjoy the ride while I can. 
9.      I need to be more patient with myself as I learn.
10.  Heavenly Father loves me.  I see it every day.

I can’t wait to get home and eat some dinner…

Love,
J
