The biggest travesty of being a NICU nurse is that I no longer have access to adult sized warm blankets. They’re tiny receiving blankets and the warmer is at half the temperature 🥲🥲🥲

The absolute terror in the eyes of the NICU nurses I met today when I disclosed that I come from an adult ICU background was very adorable.

I just worked my last shift as a CVICU nurse (at least for the foreseeable future). I've learned more than I could have ever expected these last two years and have grown so much in my practice and skills. At the same time, I have held space for so much pain and suffering. I have nothing to give.

The hospital is on day 6 of modified operations in a row and as much as my entire commute has been screwed, we get free breakfast in the mornings so I’ve reverted to my college self who will forgive any slight for free food.

It is now cold enough in my apartment to fully make use of my most favorite duo of purchases for my kindle:
1. Gooseneck stand that clips onto the bed and/or nightstand
2. A little remote to turn the pages
Proceed to turn your kindle sideways so you can read lying down without compromising coziness

What I miss about covid lockdown times is the fantasy that some aspects of society would come from it changed for the better, or that we would learn anything at all.
