Ugh. That I do! This week has definitely been interesting! The first couple of days were nicer. By Wednesday I was ready for a break! I didn't notice it when I woke up and went around the house getting ready, but when I walked out the door it hit me! My good bad hip (right) was hurting when I walked; obviously not as bad as it had been but it was still sore. AND I think my bad good hip (left) had definitely HAD IT with all this extra stress. It was popping out of socket, or so it felt, when I walked. Something was popping out.
But, it was relively easy. Doc was working in the other office half of the day, so I didn't have to do much. Which was also kinda bad. I still get a little uncomfortable when I sit for long periods of time. But I have to admit, it was nice being in the office when no other doctors at all were in! The phones were quieter and not as many people were showing up. Just the occasional, oops my appointment was in the other office?!
Wednesday afternoon was another story. Doc was back in the office and I doubled as a front office person AND his medical assistant. That was interesting. We had a good amount of patient that afternoon and I was STILL hurting. But we got through it. I was really over it by the time work had finished.
Having Thursday off was a blessing! I dunno if I could have done it! I read most of the day. I've been reading the Twilight saga. Wifey got me into them and I cannot put them down! I started reading the first one Sunday night and have progessed to the third one tonight. So I read most of New Moon yesterday. Then I went with Bestie and PFC Pavon to lunch...a late lunch...thanks to the book! After that, my Sweetie and I saw The Dark Knight. It was pretty much amazing. That's all I can say, really.
Today, work wasn't too bad. I did front office the first half of the day, and back office the second half. We had an over abundance of physicals today! FOUR this afternoon alone! Which is really a lot! You can definitely tell when school is starting, everyone needs physicals like yesterday! School out here for two of the cities starts Monday. Sucks for those kids! All in all today went pretty quickly.
Now that I have the weekend to recover, I'm praying that next week will go smoother! We sit down and talk with Doc, the Office Manager, and Director about the hours that will be split between me and the other MA for Doc...I'll need all the prayer I can get for that one...It makes me nervous just thinking about it! I know though, all things considered, that God will take care of me in the end.
