Extended Spring Break

I have been traveling like mad the past two weeks. I left for New York the morning of March 14th, took a train to Boston the morning of March 17th, flew back to Houston the night of March 19th, was in town for the 20th, and flew to Salt Lake City for the ACS National Meeting the morning of March 21st. I just got back from Salt Lake the night of March 24th. Absolutely exhausted, missing my own bed, and having piles of work to do, I was not able to volunteer this week but shall resume next week when things calm down a bit.

This semester flew by, and it is almost April. Now that I am familiar with San Jose, I am excited for the Tri-Beta volunteer event where we help with the Art with Heart auction they are having on April 25th. It is a big fundraiser for them, and I am glad to have the opportunity to be a part of it this year.

Commenting on the new setup of the prep area for vitals that I described in the last entry, I personally like being out front in the desk area with other people, but it gets crowded behind the reception desk. It is supposed to help them increase speed and efficiency, but then they have to run papers back to the medical records room. It may be a trial run, so we will see if they keep the new setup for an extended time.

See you next month!
