Our Baby Yager

This is Yager, our beloved doggy. Oh the joy that can be found in man's best friend. I love to hear the stories Kevin tells me about He and Yager out on the property while I'm working. I'll just smile and think to myself how funny life is. For those who know Kevin know that he is not sentimental about anything. It warms my heart to see how much he loves this dog. It gives me a glimpse of what a great dad he will be some day. Until then however, who needs kids when you have a sweet baby boy like this. Right Mom and Polly?

"Get back to work"

Well here I am back at work after five days off. My body is crying for sleep. Oh to be in my wonderful bed. I can do it, I can do it. Only four and a half hours left that's not so long.
So I had a wonderful idea that this is the time to get on the ball and start working out again. This great idea came while I was visiting mom and dad and found a picture of me taken on my eighteenth birthday. Well of course you know what I saw, a skinny, toned soon to be five year younger version of me. Now I have been inspired and decided today was the day to start. I ran sprints and did lunges and squats. My legs are telling me "ouch"! But I will prevail with that dang picture to drive me on. Come summer I will be a new woman. More to follow about the great time I had in Borger.

Our First Home!!

Thats mom and me on the deck after Thanksgiving.

What a feast that was.

Freezing

It never fails that I end up working with a menopausal women who has to have the air on super cold. I have been sitting here for six hours freezing my butt off. Only an hour and a half before I am free of this meat packer freezer. If she weren't so nice I would be hacked off. As it is she is a good nurse and always willing to help anyone who need help. So I can't be mad at her, she can't help it.

I leave for wonderful Borger TX tomorrow to spend a little time with the parents and attend the wedding of a friend from nursing school. It should be a happening time.

Oh I am so cold!! I long for the warmth of summer. Where for art thou summer?

My friend Kate

I just spent the last hour or so reading my friend Kate's blog, or klog as she calls it. I love the way she writes, just like she talks. I miss that girl. Never have I met anyone like her she brings a smile to my face and joy to my heart.

The First Entry

Well, I did it. I am now a blogger. My sister Erica told me its a great way to catalog the things that happen in life-I hope you like it.

I'm working at the hospital and it is so quiet. We normally whisper the "Q" word so as not to set off the alarms announcing to the town and surrounding area that we are content at the moment and please don't come to the hospital. These girls I'm working with have been talking all night. At times I find myself wishing for just a little bit of quite time.

My patients are all sleeping, hurray!!! this is a great accomplishment in the medical world. The evidence that you are a good nurse is noted when your patients sleep all night. I'm a really good nurse.
