What's the hardest part about your job? There are so many things....but the one that comes to mind is when one of my residents is going downhill or pallative and we both know it......and it is so emotional and hard.....

Its amazing how fascintating things can be when you learn something new.....hee hee. I was excited when I first used Raechelles Mac.....and putting pics on it....wow!!

Now I am loving Skpe...its free and I can show everyone my new little six week old kitten...sooooo cute. She came with the name Jewel...but I am watching her personality for awhile and see what transpires....lol

Another wave of pain has actually made me look up information on the internet...and blog about it. I have had sooo many car accidents over the years and the worst one being in 1995 landing on my  head out of a rolling jeep. After that life changed and I have never lost the weight I have gained or gained my health back.

After years of different ways of dealing with the pain and never knowing what to eat that wont make me nauseous...the pain is still getting worse. I have all the symptoms of fibromyalgia and yet some people still dont believe it actually exists including my doctor. He says I dont have it.....now I dont want to sound like I am looking for some sort of disease....or some hypochondriac....but yet he still but me on a antidepressant that he perscribes for those with chronic pain including fibromyalgia.......what?? but he doesnt think I have it??????

Oh well, whatever he thinks....the pills have helped some of the rollercoaster pain days where I cry getting out of bed. still I go to the gym and work out because it is good for you....I feel better but hurt more. I go swimming because it is better on your joints...but I am cold, miserable and hurt. I lift weights to gain strength, feel good about myself but get muscle spasms.

this is just one of my life sucks moments....it doesnt happen to often...really. I wake up every day happy with my blessings and people at work say I am so happy all the time they wonder if I am licking the pills....

I guess I just have to keep smiling......any suggestions for coping?????

Finally sunshine....Its been so long since we have had hot days I havent wanted to come in from outside. Just like a little kid that wants to play and play....

I go back to work tommorrow night...sigh....after almost a month off. I have painted my fence the last few days....five hours yesterday and three today....I cant lift my arms.....ug.

I got so much done with my time off, yet it seems like not enough. I did visit alot though and had wonderful naps...my cats arent stupid...they know how to enjoy life!!

Now back to the grind...working, and starting some new distance learning courses....fun!!

I cant believe my weeks of holidays are almost over....ahhhhh. I am still not done my "to do" list because the weather has not cooperated. There are a few nice days coming up so then I can hopefully finish painting the fence and organizing the garage.....
However...I will miss sitting and watching day time programing!!!! lol

If you could enforce one rule of etiquette, what would it be?

I would have had a different answer years ago...but now...I could smack those people who are constantly texting when they are at a function, or with friends. For gods sake, the world wont end if you leave the damn phone alone for an hour. Or even better, pick up the phone and actually have a conversation with that person you text. OMG you might have to communicate with full words!!!!

I actually have three weeks off...what will I do? ..hmmmmm
I have holidays left over from last year..and soooo much overtime.....I have a very loooooong "to do" list.....
The sun today was wonderful...20 above.....aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh, I kept yelling out "sunshine" out the care window...ahhhhhhhh

I got some flowers planted, yard work done, most of the garden planted, went to the gym, had cofee with friends, watched two movies, did some crocheting, cleaned, did dishes, cooked and did a haircut...not bad for the first day off....lol

I actually had a weekend off last week. I literally didnt know what to do with myself. I already have over 100 hours booked overtime for this year and also 6 days holidays from last year....The sun came out last weekend and as my mom used to say...i went to town...I got all of my walls washed, drawers and closets cleaned out, the windows were open and I was blasting oldies loud enough for the next block to hear...

then, what would I do with my next day off??? lol...all that cleaning in one day and the next day I as able to have coffee after coffee with people I havent seen in forever...aaaaaaa so nice..
