Coworkers

I went back to work last night after my loving exhausted weekend. Feeling more rested I walked in to see my favorite people to work with there; I was greeted with many hugs. That's what's great about the night shift we are so close that we often laugh and goof off during times of insanity--which usually happen every night. Last night we actually had time to sit there and laugh and share stories of the insane people that have come through our door. Most of them were about drunks--who provide the best entertainment. We had one last night that started yelling stupid things at us and we all broke down laughing. My coworkers are not afraid to jump in and help you; they go looking for ways to help you and keep you from drowning. The more experienced nurses are great to answer all my stupid questions and endless requests. But they never complain they always have the answer. I never laugh so hard as I do at work. Now if only I could get sleep after-word.

The Battle

So I've decided to join the rest of the technological world and start blogging. Though anyone who would read this would also check my facebook or simply call me on the phone. However, I've decided that sometimes i will need a place to write. So welcome to my mini journal.

I am amazed at the human body, mostly for what it will put up with. Lately I have put my body through nothing short of torture. From the constant lack of sleep to the obscure diet of cereal and milk. I'm lazy when it comes to food. Which explains the extra squishiness around the middle :D. So my body and I continue to battle. This weekend it won. I got home at 3am on Friday and discovered exactly how tired I was. I went home and slept that night for 10 straight beautiful hours. I haven't done that in months. I love my job but do forget the toll it takes, emotionally and physically. So I promised that I would take better care of myself, exercise, sleep, eat something other than cold cereal, and get out of my apartment on a regular basis. I am determined to win the war. I can't lose with my mom backing me up. She is awesome. She spends a lot of time making sure I am sleeping. Which is why I didn't go out tonight. I promised her that I would get another full nights rest before taking on the world again. So I spend today cutting out my scrubs, working on Mark's Mission scrapbook and making my Christmas cards. So that tomorrow I can take on work again.

This is my blog, and I realize that my title doesn't make any sense, but hey what does in my life right now. So enjoy.
