Officially in a new role. I’m also fully in the “fake it ‘til you make it” stage of said role. So many new things, that although it’s job adjacent to previous role, it’s daunting and having me doubt myself.

I have signed on for a 3 month contract for the management position; it’s hard to commit to a full-out relocation when all you’ve known is your current city. 3 days at home, 4 in Vancouver. Family and friends are all here, and hubby would have to find a similar or better paying job than currently.

On Friday, I was offered a management position at an office that I was called into temporarily to help them “get organized”…quite literally double my current salary. However, we would have to move away from my mom, our circle of friends, and the city I’ve known all my life. 🤔🤷♀️

Spent 2 weeks on the mainland at our second location, helping to put out administrative fires and fix things that were not being attended to regarding EMR templates / billing / forms, as well as training assistants about workflow and prioritization. Great to “dip my toes” into management. Felt good!

I’m sorry, but posts like this tend to bother me. You have 1 million dollars in your SAVINGS ACCOUNT, but can’t find a “suitable” house?! WTAF….1/2

Yay me! Now, this is not 92 pounds since surgery….it’s 92 pounds from my heaviest weight recorded on My Fitness Pal. I’ve lost “only” 40 pounds since surgery, but this is weight that I NEVER would have lost without surgery. 🙌🏻

Welp….no interview invites for me this cycle. Was waiting to drop classes until I knew for sure, and my last rejection email has now come.
MCAT is sub par, so will drop the 3 classes I’m currently taking and go whole-hog into studying again for another kick at the MCAT can.

Working from home today! I rarely get this opportunity as I generally have 2 or more doctors that I support every day in office. Nobody wanted to / was available to work today so I got to sleep in and work from home in my jammies. Here is a pic of my helper ❤️🐱

Merry Christmas, everyone, even Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah @regenceutah.bsky.social, who is currently denying coverage of a cancer drug for my wife's breast cancer treatment. You are the Scrooge/Grinch in this Christmas story. But you can have a change of heart. You can be different. 💗

Everyday I think about school in January and what that is going to look like, based on potential interview invites that generally go out in December.
If I get any invites, I need to again take 3 classes in January, in order to finish my degree in April. 1/2

Is sad / mad / disappointed ☹️
My MCAT is still short of being good enough. How many times until I decide that this is all a pipe dream?
Still applying to some schools, but not as many as I wanted to.
