Stars glad you will get a break from her today

Dianah my sleep was a bit disrupted last night too

NJ22 we have those too.  I sometimes donate books to the library

Tweety hope today isn't too crazy at work

Was an odd and at times difficult day yesterday.  Had a fair amount to do for the person who was off, including a new case, in addition to my own work. Got a bit crazy at times  but thankfully had some help from coworkers. There was another new case at the end of the day but I won't be able to get to that until today

Was feeling a bit odd too, was down and had little appetite in the morning, then by the afternoon I was full of energy and quite hungry.  Given the work I had to do the energy burst came at the right time, but can't quite explain it

After work was fairly normal, stopped at the store and exercised

Today apart from work nothing unusual going on.  After work will exercise and watch It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

Going to be in the mid 50s again today

Slept hard last night, or rather, this morning, since the last time I looked at the clock it was 3:45 AM. Did not hear a thing when SiL came to get Nannie up, up, and away. Sort of woke up at 11 AM and tossed and turned, and then gave up trying to sleep a little longer. I actually wanted to wake up earlier but my body ignored my brain's intentions. 

All I have to do today is .... ummm ... a bit of the usual wifely chores, and also go to deposit a check into my checking account. But first, I suppose it would be helpful to get up and get dressed. Although the 'fad' of dressing in pajamas is still going on here, because yesterday I saw two different women at two different places, sporting baggy, and very obviously PJ bottoms. Nannie would've had a cow if she had seen them out in public like that.

My plan for today is to survive through it, as usual, and then put you-know-who to bed. Then.... get through the dreaded weekend, as the weekends are generally company-free. Not that I want any company, but it does sometimes break up the long stretch of being stuck being Nannie-laden for upwards of 48 hours in a row.

I am boring myself, so I will get up and get dressed now.

G'day.

Work was okay even though a tech called in sick and we were short one nurse.  Thankfully there weren't any post op admissions and only a few ERs.   

I'm off for much of the month and don't return until the day after Thanksgiving.

I had the trip to Thailand scheduled but my prolonged intestinal issues made me cancel it.  Speaking of, and I hate to say it because I'll relapse, but I've had a string of good days and feel like I'm in recovery mode.  Not 100% well but getting there.  

I'm maxed out and not accumulating PTO so I need to use it up so I kept the time off even though I have no real plans.
