I am trying to count my blessings. You see, I had volunteered to work an extra shift last night. I ran into our next door neighbor the other day and she told me that they were having this huge tree in their back yard trimmed/cut back today and they would probably need to be in our yard to do some of it. So they are trimming away, chain saws and all. Started at 8 this morning. After hearing the plan, I told the hospital I could not work last night, and I am so happy I did. There would be no way to sleep through that. I would have been so angry, counting the hours left until I had to go back to work. Sleep would not have come to me and I would have been one very sad little girl with her head under her pillow. I am glad our neighbor had the courtesy to let me know. I am also glad I didn't have to work last night.
I do work tonight and Saturday night, however. My mom made me two new scrub tops, one for Valentine's Day and one for Saint Patrick's Day. They are very very cute and I think I will start wearing the Valentine's one tonight. I don't want to go back!

Mama:
What a good mommie you have. I wish I had thought to do that.
