...and kind of nervous! We will be feeding on the floor this coming Saturday. Do you guys have any tips for your first time feeding? I'm afraid I'm going to break somebody. :eek:

On a side note... Today we are discussing patient bathing, and we are going to "practice" on each other. That should be interesting, considering I'm the only guy in my class. I should probably keep this a secret from my wife.

Why would you have to keep it a secret from your wife? It's just a class and all your clothing will be on.

I was joking. She knows all about it. :D

So, I miscalculated... we were supposed to feed residents yesterday, not Saturday. I was a little unprepared, but once I got in the groove of things, it was all good. My resident was a really nice guy. :)
