The calm before the storm

It's a beautiful Saturday morning and I am enjoying a nice warm cup of chai tea, enjoying these last few moments of peace.  In 3 days I will be starting my second year of residency as the senior resident in the NICU.  I'm a little nervous about this new level of responsibility.  It's just so strange... one night you go to bed a clueless intern, the next day you wake up as the all-knowing senior resident.  Yikes!  I'll have three interns to be responsible for.  I will be their direct supervisor, as well as their teacher.  I'm kind of excited about this job, but also somewhat anxious.  I want to do a really good job.  I had excellent second year residents last year.  I have big shoes to fill.

But there's no sense in sitting here worrying about it.  Worrying doesn't add a single hour to the day, as it says in the Bible.  So for now I will enjoy the sunny weekend and get rested before the craziness begins!  :)
