"I didn't invite her, did you?"
"He's letting me sit by him!"
I was going to vacuum in there, but I haven't the heart to disturb this. Moby looking dubious but tolerant. Eleanor sneaky and blissful.
Yesterday was all rooms running, and two sick-calls, me on lunch/resource. So I ran the full ten hours. All five rooms still going at 1600, down to one by the time I left at 1730. Ate my own lunch at 1030, took a short break around 1330, mostly just kept hopping, keeping everyone tended. Made the day whoosh by. When I got home, though, I was utterly pooped. Still worn and low energy. The newer staff reeling a bit, and whining, they haven't seen it like this very often. More and more days like this coming up and through the end of the year. Typical pattern, school starting tomorrow. Much depends on weather and chance, of course. Even I forget how frantic it gets after a long slow stretch. Not forget, but my body does, and complains when it speeds up again.
Any rate, I'm tired. Sure I got in my full 10K steps yesterday. At work. Still feeling stunned.
Requested vacation days for birthday and week in March while our surgeons are at their conference. I want to imagine them all at a Con, doing cosplay...
"Eh, she's ok, really."
"mmmmmm..."

they look so cozy. and i love the indian throw!
pc,
Picked that up to perk up the bedroom wall, which was a terrible OD green. Have since put up bamboo wall cover, so the red bedspread is now on the red chair. Dancing Cranes, old style hippie/newage import shop, been around forever, still doing well. Lots of lovely fabrics.
i have 3 similar ones - the women in my family have a slight fabric obsession, so it takes a lot of work to not get more. i think they're so versatile - you can hang them on a window, a piece of furniture, sleep under them in the heat, use them on the beach, or wrap around for warmth when the apocalypse comes in a douglas-adams-towel fashion. and also super pretty!
Everything seems to get so much busier once September falls into place. I know why that's the case for me as most of my customers are higher education institutions, but for you it seems to me to be less clear why this would be the case. Don't people need surgery on a somewhat regular predictable basis?
Phil,
HA! No. Not at all. Wide variations, with seasons for different kinds of injuries. For the stuff people can put off, they wait until they can get the time off work, or when their kids are back in school, or the insurance kicks in.
pc,
Yup, it's a version of Towel. You hoopy frood you.
