    One of my few nights off. Just finished reading to the kids. Now off to bed with them. :smile: I'm finding it harder to keep the calories down on days that I'm off.

    My boss has commented twice on how my scrubs are hanging off of me. Best part about scrubs is the drawstring pants so I can wear them two sizes too large. Guess it's time to go shopping.

    It's slowed down so I got in 30 minutes on the bike. Now for something to eat and then back to work.

    I've been off work the last two nights, but have stuck to the night shift schedule. It's been great being off work - makes me realize just how much I don't like my job anymore. Back to work on Sat night.

    Sorry about the job MadDog. I do enjoy my few days off but I like my job as well. That makes it a lot easier to go back to work.

    Yikes! That's a rapid turn around. I see some caffeine in your future. :smile:

    I know the "grass isn't greener on the other side" - that's why I'm sticking it out here at my current hospital. It's close to home, compared to others I've worked at, and working night shift has me driving against the traffic both ways :-) Now, when my supervisor retires in April, that may be another story...

    I'm not happy to be working tonight. Our neighbors are doing some sort of home improvement that involves saws and hammers. I slept about 5 hours. My patient is annoying, and I don't really like any of my Co workers that are here. Oh well.

    I'm fortunate enough to get along with most of my co-workers. It's the people calling in I have no patience for!

    I work alone so all my interactions are via phone & email. Sometimes I am starved for human interaction!!

    Well it's been snowing here for the past four or five hours and I've yet to hear the snow plow speed by so my trip home might be a little scary if they don't start plowing soon!

    yuck! It's been unseasonally warm here. All of our snow has practically melted in the last few days.

    I just started my shift. 7.5 hrs to go and it's my Friday! However, my coworker called in. I'm all alone which means I can't go outside and walk like I normally do on slow nights. )=
