Friday Five...


  • The end of my fourth week of work...feeling comfortable, like I'm getting the hang of the routine...remembering what I used to know without even having to think...IV sticks...weinkebach...12-lead EKGs...ace inhibitors...beta blockers...statins...calcium channel blockers...nitrates...it's all coming back to me.

  • The Girl learned an important thing this week...not a good idea to gesture or point with the middle finger...uugghh! And about another hand gesture that led her to ask the question, "what does gay mean"...still waiting for some wisdom to answer that last one...

  • Hubs has all kinds of Greek stuff lying around---and I think it's starting to really make sense to him! He made a 94 on his first exam, has to take his second one this week I think.

  • Two shots and a prednisone dose pack and my rash is much less itchy (but still present)...weird, still don't know what caused it.

  • Homesick for the mountains and the people we love there...melancholy and wanting to smell home...

and that's all I got...boring, I know.

Unexpected Blessings, Birds and Bees

Well, yesterday was an interesting day. It came on the heels of a weekend of sickness, both Nate and Joe. Nate was officially diagnosed with croup and exacerbation of asthma and is still taking steroids and sounds worse, but the light at the end of the tunnel is on! Joe stayed in all weekend and sounded almost as bad as Nate minus the wheezing. We kept our family home (even from church, small group, etc) feeling like hermits. And, even though the boys were both sick, I picked up sweet Bella the dog on Saturday from a friend who works with the NC Lab rescue group. We know we eventually want another dog, but not until Nate is old enough to handle it. Bella, a one year old yellow lab- sheltie mix, house-broken, crate-trained 28 pound sweet girl, is going to spend a little time at our house and see how it goes. The kids think we're pet-sitting to help out Mrs. D, which is true, sort-of. The sweetest moment came yesterday when Nate gave a bedtime blessing to Bella the Dog. &qu

Overheard from the front seat of the Mini-van...

Nate: "mommy is E (a friend's son) 2 or 4? Me: "He's 2" Nate: "Well, that's not far from 4" Nate: After a moment "Mommy, How did E's Mommy get the baby sissy in her tummy" Me: "Well, it's pretty cool...God made a very special way for Mommy's and Daddy's to grow a baby in Mommies' tummies kinda like planting a seed" Nate: "Can boys have babies" Me: "No, God just gave mommies the special parts to have a baby in their tummies" Nate: "I want you to get a baby in your tummy" Me: "Well, Mommies parts don't work to have babies anymore" Nate: "Mommy, how old do I have to be to play basketball...."
