The next month is gone

I can't believe it - it's 2nd of September. I left Aussie 9 month ago to the day. Unbelievable!

No I am counting the days I have to work as a PT. Maybe tomorrow is my last, maybe next thursday will be the last one or the thursday the week after - all depends on when my boss manages to get a new employee for the job... So long I smile for the patients and just keep on moving.

Last week was horrible: There are four PT's in two practises. One is on sick-leave scince two weeks now - his work could make up for. On monday the second one got sick. My boss decided I had to work in the second practise instead doing my 'normal' patients. The third PT had to attend a trainee on thursday & friday - me alone! Tuesday to Thursday from 8am to 7pm - after works I did work two days per week only, I felt smached in the evenings. Luckily I had a 'short' friday - just up to 3pm, therefore without break!
The problems were not to do so long hours. But for all that patient moaned and were unhappy; I got stuck in the traffic, the GPS stopped working and I had to drive while reading the road map and the street name's. Last I had a heated discussion with a patient's nurse about the time I worked...
Whenever I had puniest doubts concerning my study - that week depicts I am right!
Guess, you can imagine it was great to hear I won't need to work this week that many hours as well.

A faboulus week but the best follows:
When I needed to fill up fuel I got stuck at the station - could open the doors with the key but not the ignition. At least I managed somehow to start the car and drove home. Worse happend on friday morning: again the car did not start!
What to do? Being happy about an aunt who is up early and needs her car seldom - I borrowed it for the day.
While working, my mom got in touch with the auto shop so the spare parts could be ordered. Express delivery!
We suggested the part would be delivered and the car repaired on monday - failure.
The spare part was not delieverd on tuesday either! What is meant by 'express delivery'???
The good side - when my boss asked me to work today for a couple of hours I have had an excuse. She understand and I was off today! Much better: just before midday the auto shop called, the spare part was deliverd(finally) and our car was about to be repaired!!!!!!!!
Yeeha - I've got the car back; it's a small holdon. Much easier to find parking spots with these one than with my aunt's big one!

Let's see what's happening tomorrow....
