X-rays

I am so mad at myself. Today my day was going really well and I thought I was doing great. My pt. was here I was going right along then, I went to take x-rays. I was taking digital x-rays and forgot to put the lead shield on. Then instructor Vining came back and noticed and so I put the lead shield on for the rest of the x-rays. I didn't know what would happen unitl the day was over. If you don't put the lead shield on then you fail those x-rays. I am so mad at myself and I hope and think I will never do it again. At least it wasn't a full mouth. It is just frustrating. You are thinking you will have a great day and then you fail part of it. It burst my bubble. Oh well.
