MY CRAZY LIFE

……………….SUCH IS LIFE……………….

MY jOB

I always show up for work early- around 6:30ish in the morning I look forward to reading the nursing communiction log to see how my patients faired while I was gone. Monday notes make for the best read, after being gone for two days. Lets see it looks like Ethel fell and hit her arm on her bedside table. A trip to the er to get 18 stiches on her left forearm, Gretta still at Puget Sound Hospital psychiatric ward getting a tune up for her bi poloar disorder.sub text:(I really think she has borderline personality disorder, but what do I know I’m just a low paying nurse)went a tad bit crazy the other day and had to be hauled away by he sheriff. Oh dear it seems that Irene did have a fractured left hip–my assessment was correct on Friday. She fell in the dining room I knew right away she had a fracture due to the position of her left leg–I very bad break. I read that she was not responding very well after her surgery. Her chances are bleek and her family is making arrangements. Damn! Just when she started to get happy agian, I will miss our morning coffee clutches. I wish our new nurse had better handwriting but I can’t complain because it is nice having a male nurse for a change and better yet he is “diet eye candy” A quote from our expressions coordinator. Not exactly HOT but good enough to look at and get some warm fuzzies. Looks like he held up the ship. No med tech today which means I will have to do medications for 45 patients. It will take me two hours–which is ok because I like to keep busy. Looks like it will be a fun-filled day.

Me

on getting old

vIt all started about 10 years ago It hit me like a ton of bricks– I was getting old. I was at a wedding for a distant relative and the bride announced she wanted all the single girls to come up and try to catch her bouquet. Of course, I ran up to the dance floor for the chance to be the next to wed. However, it soon dawned on me that I would have to fight off all my neices for the chance to catch the flowers. In the end, it was a battle between me and my 7 year old niece fighting over the flowers–well at least what was left of them.

vI bought my first basic white bra, no fluff no frill no Victoria Secret logo very virgin like bra-10 years from now no doubt I will be wearing granny panties—

vInstead of buying sexy spring attire, I recently bought a $140.00 barefoot dreams bath robe and it’s nice and fluffy.

vI cut my trussels by 4 inches

vInstead of buying the basic dove cleansing wash towels I bought the anti-aging towels it’s going to cost more to be wrinle free.

vJust yesterday, I was examining my forhead for those frown wrinkles, Yep, I think I will need some help from Mr BOToX.

vNo more tanning beds for me –will have to forge over the big bucks to do that mistic tan thing.

vI examine my mother more closely now–will I look like her when I’m 67. She did have her eyes fixed.

vNow, when I look in the mirror, I see the reflection of my mother

vI came across a picture of me (in my sisters gargare) I was once a Hot looking chick–what happened to me. For the first time in my life –I’m feeling bad about the way I look. I want to look like that girl in the picture again. Digressing a bit about the picture. I remember being alone in Lake Tahoe It’s coming back to me. Yes, I remember all of these men trying to pick up on me–bell hops, the guy at the gym, the handsome waiter, drop dead sexy bartender, the guy at the bike rental–I was a hot young thing back then.–they all wanted me.

vI wonder if other men still think I’m a hot chick. Do they see me as I see myself–an old lady.

The Kid

Just by looking at this picture you can see what I have been dealing with day after day and day. See how he has the phone attached to his ear. When this phone goes dead he has a back up phone to use. He talks non-stop to his girlfriend. This week it’s Maria. I’m so elated that I disconnected him off my cell phone service–buddy plan my ass! I was more than happy to pay the $200.00 break in contract fee. Look at his pants could they really get any lower. When is this baggie pant trend going out of style. He is still flunking English and History. Right now he is getting a 38% out of English. Now would that be a F—– or what. Oh but he is getting a very nice 48% out of History. A while ago BB noticed his mountain bike was missing from the garage. Craig denied taking the bike at first but then later fessed up about letting his friend use the bike. BB and Craig went over to the friends house but no bike. The friend let someone else use it. BB gave Craig an ultamatium-either he gets the bike back in two days or he is grounded from his girlfriend, the computer and the phone. 2 days later the bike was found at someones grandparents house.
