@ells_bellz Those situations are really intense and it is normal to be bothered by them. Unfortunately this person had a lot of medical issues and you couldn't control any of that. I know here in the US my CPR trainers are very upfront that survival rates are low from CPR. My father in law has given CPR 3 times before paramedics took over and none of them survived. You guys worked together, gave manual CPR without a AED device and passed him off to paramedics in the best condition considering the emergency situations. You and your co workers should feel proud of your ability to respond the way you did. I'm sure the rational side of you can process this. The emotional side is just going to take time. It's a lot to process. The intensity will fade with time but you will definitely have your moments. I gave my youngest the heimlich maneuver as a 1 year old for a long time before we got the food out. I can still give kids at work the heimlich but afterwards those emotions rush back and I definitely have a good cry. Keep talking about it. You have co workers who absolutely understand and we are always here for you.5

Here are my little piggies ready for Christmas! Tried to get a group photo of my kids for Christmas but it is proving to be much more difficult than photographing piggies 😅
We had our annual gingerbread house party. Had lots of fun baking, building and decorating our gingerbread houses. After the party, I cleaned house. Then my husband and I lucked out and got called for a massage. We were on the cancelation list and I even ended up with my favorite massage therapist. We went out to dinner and ate too much.
Looking forward to Christmas eve! The kids are so excited 😁7 -

Sorry to be a day late! And to have a little gain this week! It's been hectic, as I'm sure it has been for all of you. Merry Christmas to all who celebrate, and happy Hannukah to all who celebrate that!
Have a great day!2 -
Well I got to England and to my mums.
I can’t wait to spend Christmas Day with my brother, sister and their families. Day will start with a walk in the woods, dinner is at 1pm and there will be much merriment, my SIL is a hoot on any day of the week, she’s amped for tomorrow
Merry Christmas to you and your families🎄
What a wonderful time of year ☺️6 -

Bounced right back up there. Not surprising. I’ve lost control. It’s ok. I’ll get it together because right now all that sugar is not sitting well in my tummy.
@ells_bellz Sending you a big virtual hugs. I totally agree with all the wise sentiments, you have been very brave, kind, and caring yet this was a trauma for you as well. Keep talking and processing this. You did your best. He had a lot of other things going on. Give yourself time to feel better. Hugs friend.
It’s very cold here. I don’t know how our Canadian friends cope. I’m hoping the pipes in my house in Greensboro are ok. My son is up here and not down there to drip faucets. I also had a dogwood tree fall on my house in NC from the wind. My friend who is watching my son’s cats called to tell me.
Here in PA it’s about 6°. Brrrr. My granddaughter is in bed excited to see what Santa brings. I know she’ll be happy.
Night all. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all those who celebrate3 -

@jugar, so I was so SURE that I'd checked in and as I'm scrolling thru the chat to find it....I see it, there, sitting in the box at the bottom waiting patiently for me to hit the post reply button. Sorry about that, see below.
@jugar CW 171.0 (yesterday when I accidentally weighed - days mixed up - 171.9....just shows what a difference a day can make)3 -

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate! 🌲
@micki48 it's 32 here now in Greensboro! Such a warm day 😂 According to the duke energy map, just about everyone has power back in our area. They were talking about rolling blackouts yesterday, today, and tomorrow so the energy grid doesn't overload. So far not at our place, but keeping our fingers crossed. I hope your house is ok with the tree falling on it! Let me know if I can help with anything!
We are enjoying the day with family. Getting ready to cook a yummy dinner here soon. Then some sweet treats 😊2 -
well, that's the holiday over - didn't eat sweets (none available) but probably overdosed on lovely cardamom bread. oh, and maybe a bit of wine, but nothing extreme. Although a bit cliche, I'm looking forward to the start of a new year and maybe getting some resolutions in line.
@conleywoods love that guinea pig portrait!!3 -
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas today! I love when Christmas day arrives because it means I can relax for the rest of my vacation 😌 Making Christmas magic for 3 kiddos is a lot of fun but takes so much energy. Even though my older two know who Santa really is they still want every magical moment. We are bbqing ribs today since it will be above freezing for the first time in awhile. Then lots of relaxing and maybe early bed time for the kids 😴6

What a whirlwind!
My mom and I are back in the Charlotte area after a few days of displacement and alternating nothing-to-do with tons-to-do. It was intense but good for the heart. I'm glad we're done with all the work, though!
I hope you have all been having a great weekend. I'm sure we're all tired in different ways - but at the same time waiting for the new year, the new energy, and the progress to get back in line and on the job!
I'm just about to catch up with the tallies for the week but in the meantime, here are the reminders to get the final week of 2022 rolling.
Due Sunday - Monday:

Had a great Christmas Day with my brother. No turkeys were harmed and he made a tasty meatloaf, stuffing, green bean casserole and scalloped potatoes. My son and I were the sous chefs and we did all the peeling, slicing, dicing and chopping while sitting around the kitchen table, reminiscing, telling stories and laughing.4 -

Isn't sitting around sous-cheffing with offspring a blast? I'm looking forward to that when I get home this week. Thursday it is Pad Thai making with my son - can't wait!4 -
I typed up a bunch on Christmas Eve, but I guess didn't hit post. 🤷♀️ Unfortunately, Jonas had Covid so we had to stay home. Mabel tested negative but she is also sick. Bad cough and fever. We had a great family day with just the six of us. I stepped on scale and it is the same. I am ready to eat better and toss out the cookies ( I won't toss them, but I am done eating them).5
