Family times are better. Amazing what the Lord can do, isn't it? Even though I have to remind children to do their chores on a daily basis, and remind them yet again after the first reminding (and second). Things are looking up. (Thank You Lord Jesus!)

Mom is feeling better these days. We went to the doc yesterday because of her having diarrhea daily, and it being black. Now I do know that her taking Maalox would make it that color, but still, I would rather be safe than sorry. TMI, I know....

Work is busier than ever. We had 5 admits in one day yesterday! The ok has been given to have 2 nurses on each shift now, but we have to wait until they can be hired in. It is a growing pain, but once it is ok, and we have all the nurses we need, it'll be alright, I think. I went in to help out for 4 hours today, passed some meds, and got alot of people angry at me, cause I didn't just jump right on thier meds first and ignore everyone else. One of my CNA's came to me with a cut finger, and was stressing out over it. I took her in and cleaned her up, and by the time I returned to my resident, she was very upset with me, and had stormed off indignantly. It is an extremely busy time of day, and I was running behind a bit anyway.... oh well. Life goes on. I did forget to cut one of my residents fingernails after teling him that I would. I'll go in early on Saturday to do that for him.

Nothing really new around the homefront. Need to make bread tomorrow and pay some bills, that's about it.

Amelia is getting ready to mop the kitchen floor, so I had better get out of her way!

Thanks for checking in on us.... God bless and love to you all!
