I should be getting ready to get my butt out the door, it's snowing. Supposed to snow all day today and tomorrow. I can't wait to drive in it. It will be so fun and stimulating.

(Did you read that above? That's my positive outlook on life and things I've been trying to put into practice for the past couple of weeks. Are you buying it?) Let me continue.

I'm so excited about getting to work today. As of 6pm last night I had a patient population of 34% with influenza type A. Today I will get to use my skills ministering to the sick and begging, borrowing and stealing enough staff with dripping noses, sore throats, raging temps and the trots to survive as a care giving institution for another 24 hours.

I'm feeling excellent, physically, emotionally and spiritually. What a glorious day!
