Don’t want anyone thinking I’ve dropped off the earth or any thing. It’s been a whirlwind this past week and a half. I’ve officially accepted the job offer and tendered my resignation from my current job. I’ve agreed to stay on until mid March and tie up all the loose ends I can so that there’s a smooth transition. I don’t have to, but that’s me. I did my job with a bit of perfectionism, so I will leave it ready for someone new to slip right into.
I’m very excited about my new job. I’m now the Director of Quality, Risk, and ‘Education’ for two campuses of an up and coming healthcare company. As now, quality, risk, infection control and employee health will report to me, but I get to trade the monster of medical staff credentialling for education which was what I did for 7 years before transitioning to Quality and Risk. Who would have guessed there was a job out there where I could blend all of my job loves and talents? I literally can’t wait to teach again. When I interviewed with the owner he stopped at one point as we were talking and said “Who are you? Where did you come from? You’re exactly what we need. You’ve done education, critical care, quality, risk and infection control!” Instead of a 30 minute interview we chatted for 90 minutes.
Of course the perfect job for me would be one where I could blend art, spanking and writing, but for now I’ll go with this one. Good people, fun work, variety and good money too. I’ll miss my team, but I know I’m leaving them well situated. They’re the real worker bees and the true engine.
And I had my check up in Houston last Thursday and Friday. I got through all the tests including the bone marrow, and so far all looks good. The scare I had this past summer and fall has been crested, so I can talk about it now. I remain in remission.
Yes I owe many answers to comments and Chapter 9 of WW. With luck I’ll get time to catch up right within another day or so.
Love
