Getting more confident and independent as RN!

I'm back from my last night shift! I have 4 more days off...YEY!!! My day shifts were kind of busy and my night shifts were very nice with patients that I know and I did learned and reviewed how to deal with temp pacemakers since I had a pt with one. I was actually proud of myself because I felt so independent and felt more sure about all the things I had to deal with such as hanging IV drugs and trouble shooting those IV lines, drawing blood from PICC, and PICC dressings. We are also currently going through recertification of cardiology and safety of handling biohazardous materials. I'm kind of at the point where I have to start working on my own, I have to apply for a position...but I'm unsure if i want to stay there or not. Today is 5 months since I started. I was thinking to start part time and keep looking for a job. We'll see. However, I can say that I feel that I'll be alright to be independent. I feel pretty confident by now. I already make my own decisions. I and Gev going on my work's christmas party on Sat; it's a big one for the whole HI. I think it'll be exciting and we'll get to meet a lot of people!
On a side from my work....I'm an aunty again...K and S's baby girl was born today at 0025!!! We saw her today!!! She is a copy of my husband :) and my father in law. It's so interesting!!! We're all very excited!!!
