Breakdown

Last 2 days I was given an assignment at work that was emotionally taxing on me. Working in the trauma icu during the holidays is a challenge. You have to distance yourself from getting to personal so your able to focus on the tasks to keep your patients alive yet comfort family members as well. I think I'm pretty good I probably come off as a cold hearted bitch nurse but it's just easier to focus when I don't get emotionally attached to family. I try to relate and now being a mom it makes it even more challenging to not breakdown in tears in the breakroom bathroom.. Just saying... It's hard for me to do anything physical after workin 12 hours and being on my feet all day.. So the stress tension isn't released.. So today after our computer class I took advantage of leaving at 5 to finally run downtown bridges .. I parked at the y and changed in the car.. I set my Nike to 5k and ran 3:1... Time was 44 mins! And with two bridges.. I didn't feel exhausted afterward maybe exhilarated I LOVe it.. Training for the half so gotta do another 3 tomorrow
Love peace
