I am kind of sad that I have to work tomorrow. I think I have worked the last 3 years on the fourth of July and I never really cared that I had to. I will admit that would much rather work the 4th than Christmas or Thanksgiving. I don't think there has really been anything I was missing out on in the past, so I didn't really care. But this year, I am missing a party that many of my friends will be at (including Shane and Ethan most likely) and I will be taking care of sick people. I am a little bummed, but what can I do? In thinking about it today, though, it dawned on me that I have made quite a few really good friends over the past year which makes me very very happy. I love to hang out with them and I am thankful for all of them. I will be thinking about them a lot tomorrow as they swim in the 88 degree pool and BBQ and relax all day long while I am running around giving pills and shots and bedpans.

Sounds like your 4th kindof turned into Thanksgiving without turkey.

While I’m sure everyone had fun, Fourth of July isn’t a top holiday. You can re-create the BBQ, pool, and friends on another day (minus fireworks). I bet all those sick people appreciated someone showing up to work, too.
