First Job Offer

Work really starts in earnest this week, on both fronts!

Been practicing guitar this am, still got another 2hrs to do this avo - progress slow but steady, fingers hurting!

Medacs (locum agency) have been in contact with job offers, couldn't do most of them cause they're over weekends or I'm away on holiday (going to lake district with julie in september) but potentially got a shift in Perth Royal Infirmary next week doing medical receiving (yuk!) from 2pm to 10pm. Bit of a blow really, I was hoping for A+E shifts not general medicine! Having said that, august and sept are said to always be very dry months from a locum point of view and any work is welcome at the moment! Especially mid-week one-day shifts, exactly what I need. Here's hoping I get the job.

Julie's settling into her new job well, crazy first week aside. She seems to be enjoying her ward, getting on well with the other staff (including the nurses) and has just survived her first weekend on-call which was hectic but bearable. I'm hoping that she'll get out and socialise a bit this week so that her life isn't just work, eat, watch an episode of scrubs with me then go to bed.

Anyway, long post so I'll leave it there.
