tonight i go back into work... had to change my schedule to only work 8 h tonight... i tried to schedule just working three 12 h shifts to maximize my home, study and family time. luckily for me i am able to adjust my schedule as i need to, as tomorrow night i have to change my 12 h shift to only an 8 (again) because of baseball games and practices. When both kids are in different areas of town, it can be difficult to manage everything involved with the games and practices. so back to the 8 h shift I go.
tonight i get to work in the unit.. i love working in there. i especially love the monitors that already have the vitals all ready for you :) makes my job so much easier, plus i have time then to learn from the nurses that are working. i guess i will take in my school work to see if i might have sometime to work on that a bit in the slow periods. that's one bad thing about nightshifts... it can be verrrrrrry slow quite often.

the other day while sleeping, my youngest son woke me up (love how they do that!) to ask me if he could walk up to the convenience store to get some candy. (normally I wouldn't care if he did, as long as he asked). i am not sure what i had been dreaming about, but i told him plain as could be that " no, you can't walk up that far. you have high blood pressure, and i would be very worried that something would happen to you." he looked at me and said so innocently, "does grandma know i have high blood pressure?" as soon as he asked me that, it dawned on me that i had been half talking in my sleep and i couldn't help but laugh at myself and told him "honey, no, nevermind, try not to talk to me while i am sleeping huh? you don't have high blood pressure, you are only 9!!" LOL i still get a giggle out of it... and it's things like that why i tell the boys do not wake me up for any phone calls while sleeping... i never know what i might say to people!
