Mantra

It's been an interesting week here. Not that I haven't busy with the usual errand-running/appointment-making/meal-preparing/personal-growth-in-the-form-of-exercise-and-drum-practice-ing that is my life, but I've felt... quiet. Big changes are afoot in my life, and it's like I'm trying to cultivate as much calm as possible now in anticipation of the coming storm.

I'm changing jobs. Again. In a few weeks I'll be starting a new position as the medical librarian in a prominent, well-respected hospital in the Montreal area, and I'm very excited. And scared. And worried about how this will affect all our lives. And nervous. And psyched about what an incredible professional opportunity this is. And grateful. And...

Well. You get the idea.

My thoughts are going every which way, and until recently, I was finding it incredibly difficult to stay focused. Luckily, my beloved Interwebz delivered a mantra which I've found most soothing over the past few days...


It totally works, too. Heh.

Happy Knitting, Everyone!

Congratulations!! I was a McGill undergrad and med student and intern..Montreal is such a great city. Keep repeating your mantra. Like they say... in a code (cardiac arrest) take your pulse first.

Si t'as eu la job, arrête de capoter, t'es capable... Don't just show confidence, BE confident, you know you can do it...! You applied!

New job nerves are tough, it's fear of the unknown I think. But you know you're going to be great!
