I'm off

I received a job offer tonight, and my mind is still sort of reeling about it. Like....REALLY reeling about it! It's a travel gig in Ashland, about 2 hours away from where I live right now. A psych contract, no less. It's still kind of surreal to me, taking a leap with this whole traveling gig. I'm still trying to wrap my mind around it, even though I signed on with the agency almost a month ago. It's been kind of a slow process, but to be honest I really didn't think anything would come of it. I'm also anticipating a phone call from a place in Prestonsburg, which is about 2 hours south of where I live. My sister has visited there before for her job and absolutely adores the area! I'm still not sure if I'm going to take the Ashland job or not; that is all contingent upon a few more interviews I have this week and whether or not I hear something from some of the other places I've interviewed at in the past couple of weeks. But at least I have something to fall on; SOMETHING is there.

So yeah....I'm likely going to be a travel nurse!

I'm excited, scared (more like bleeding terrified), overwhelmed, anxious, and a little unsure about what the next steps are going to look like. It's a good time in my life to do this I think, and I think this will be a great opportunity in the long run. According to my recruiter, who is super awesome, she said it'll look good on a resume with all my travel experiences. And you know, if it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. There will be something; jobs will always be there. By the end of the week I'll make a decision on which contract to take; one or the other for sure. It's hard to say right now which one I'm leaning more towards, but anything could happen. A change is coming, and I'm excited!
