Days 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 & 29!!! End of round one of the challenge:-)
Posted on March 23, 2010 at 4:59pm 1 Comment 0 Likes
Well, I know I've been a spotty blogger the last two weeks but with the back injury everything seems to take more time than I thought. I've been doing better--back at work, made it through two call nights and have been using a cane, although today was the last day for that! No cane needed anymore!:-) My family and my fiance have been so wonderful--esp my fiance doing even more of the household work (if that is even possible! :-)) I can't believe the challenge is over--I've tried to be gentle… Continue
Day 12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19 &20--Injury & Return from Blog Hiatus
Posted on March 14, 2010 at 11:49am 5 Comments 0 Likes
Well I'm more than a bit behind in my blogging--and the only reason that I'm able to blog today is I'm laid up at home with a bad back which has prevented me from working this weekend! Despite all of that chaos--including a fear-laden twenty-four hours where we thought I might need emergency surgery to correct a possible spinal cord impingement (thankfully I didn't need it!)--I've kept the 29gift challenge going. I'm sorry I haven't blogged--but I'll get back into it today. I've really missed… Continue
Day 11~Pooper Scooping and My Patient That Woke up!!
Posted on March 5, 2010 at 4:48pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
Trying to get to bed early because, once again, I'm on call tomorrow! I'm not exactly looking forward to spending the weekend at the hospital and the lack of sleep, but I'm going to do all I can to make it a good experience. And that starts with being well-rested! Whiney about losing most of my Friday nights to either sleep or work, I have a bad habit of staying up late on weekend nights even when I'm faced with a 30 hour shift the next day. But in this new vein of self care, I'm going to put… Continue
Day 10--The Tow Truck Man
Posted on March 4, 2010 at 7:38pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
Today I paid an extensive "stupid tax" for losing my keys a few days ago. I lose things alot--I think its because I'm tired and all my brain power goes towards my patients :-) At least that is how I justify it to myself! But this time was really particularly bad as I lost my car keys somewhere in the house and then I think we accidently threw them away. So today after three days of searching and car pooling to work and BB's infinite patience, I finally bit the bullet and had the car towed ($$)… Continue
