Updating as requested....

So I'm only supposed to work 120 hours every two weeks, but I routinely put in an extra 4o. It has been having a detrimental effect on just about everything. So now I am trying to go into a slower mode, and actually spend more time at home, and be mentally present while I'm there. We'll see... Work an the other hand is going pretty well, got a big disaster drill coming up. I get to be the Triage Officer/Tactical Ops Chief. So our boss told me the other day. I will be in charge of triage and removal of 75-90 patients from three multi-story buildings after an "earthquake". I'll let you know how that turns out. The drama at work continues to go on. It doesn't affect me personally, but it is strange to watch it. Sometimes I feel so very old, I think back on where I've done and stuff, and man it seems like yesterday and a lifetime at the same time. My daughter turns 11 Monday. How is that even possible? Last week I changed her diaper, now she's writing poetry. She is different child. I don't know too many 10 year old kids that embroider and write stories. But she is my girl and she is very special to me. I don't know if she realizes it or not. It is getting kind of late now so it's time to close. Maybe I'll write again soon...
