Today was much better, even than yesterday. I did something today that I have been worried about all along; I took a long lunch, had a playdate with Jack , and still got more done today than I got done yesterday. I was concerned that I wouldn't be able to still have my Mommy friends and work also.

Another thing I learned today is that Jack is really good at this! Today, he was playing with his toys and he decided that he wanted to watch tv. So he went up to it, turned it on, and watched Sesame Street until lunch time! I chose this career so that I could be here with Jack during the day and I was beginning to feel guilty about working so much. But he's okay. He gets it. We're in this together and we're working as a team.

As for the work- I've done some pretty cool transcribing! Everything from cardiac catheterizations to electrocardiograms and colonoscopies. It seems that when you hear a type of report once, the second time you hear it is very much easier. Again, I can't say how important and helpful Breena's feedback has been. Read your feedback.

This is really challenging; it's hard! But at the end of the night when I tally up those reports and the lines it makes it all worth it.
