for the love of it all

Productive week. I am finding that by the time the weekend hit's i'm exhausted. I spent the entire morning cleaning and doing laundry- it's still running and not done. The kids got hungry as soon as i was ready to take a shower So it back to the kitchen to make lunch. then it's clean up lunch, clean up the living room and time to pick up Kerman. By the time i come home i was ready to crash- but i had more laundry to do.. i was like is it ever gonna end...

Nurses acquited for blowing the whitsle on a USELESS Doc.

So, last year late in the summer two nurses were fed up with the shit a doctor was doing. Practicing medicine and creative medicine along with selling pyramid type supplements to his patients in the ED. The nurse turned him in anonymously so he complains to the sheriff ( who he happens to play golf with and sell his supplements too) and the sheriff does some investigating and they arrest they identify and arrest the two nurses who blew the whistle. So months of not working and legal fees out the wahzoo, the jury acquitted the two nurses! Jurors said afterwards you could see where this was going and it was obvious before long. I am happy that small town politics didn't prevail. I am happy that nurses spoke up. If this had gone the other way BOY OH BOY where would medicine be today??

oh yah...

Went ahead and entered to do the Danskin again. My goal this year is to go at 2 hours. It should be able to do it as long as i stay focused and get my grove on. The last two days have been good. SORE but good. I put the receipt at my desk at work to look at it and remind me to take a breath. And remember what my goals are. Yah, I am a manager and i have goal for me and my unit. But to be honest. I have more personal goals. I think of myself as glorified babysitter of sorts. I watch everyone, make sure they don't get hurt, tell them what they do wrong and turn in my paper work. Oh yah, turn in the receipts for lunch. Don't know if that makes me a good manager or if my skill set makes me a good manager or better yet my selective honesty? I wonder?? I still think of my self as nurse, thankful i don't always have to be a the bedside, but not afraid to jump in. Does that make me a bad nurse now? I an going to set my goals and priorities for the next few months on paper. oh yah and here too. April 24 5K May- Bike ride for DM- 25 miles June 6th... DANSKIN:0 Oct 1/2 marathon.. This was a picture from last year at the start of the DANSKIN- watching the sun come up over the lake...gorgeous huh? Gonna go for another 30 lbs in the process... wish me luck. This was me last year with my oldest son.
