There is end in sight.
Clinicals, which I have been doing every Monday and Wednesday at Sacred Heart, are almost over! Yah. I have really enjoyed being there, such a rewarding job, but reality it’s hard to donate two days a week of free labor and then try to still get your normal 40 hour work week in.
Other happenings---Halloween came and went. Kamden was a bat. Kahne was a kitty, although most thought he was a bear. I guess he was just in a big fuzzy suit and you couldn’t really tell what he was. We had such a warm night to go trick or treating and of course the boys had way too much fun! In reality we could have skipped the whole Halloween night; by the time Halloween got here we had more candy than we knew what to do with. Menomonie puts on a “fall-o-ween” downtown where the kids get to play games for candy, and trick or treat at the downtown business. One of nursing homes in town also had trick or treating and the boys made out great there too. I have a weakness for candy so I wish it would all just disappear!
My birthday came and went. I spent the night at the hospital with my friend Amy in labor. She couldn’t pop little Sophia out till 543 the next morning but she almost made her grand entrance on my birthday. It was a long, long night and although I was beyond tired, it was worth it! She suffered from back labor so I spent almost the entire time rubbing/putting pressure on her back. Rubbing someone’s back from 5 in the afternoon till 5 in the morning, is rough on the hands. Amy says I had the easy part though. Mom and baby are exhausted but doing great!
Jason had surgery the following day. (Yeah I didn’t really get to even leave the hospital) He had his tonsils removed. He was in lots of pain but said he wasn’t immobile so he went hunting the next day. The thing they said about get lots of rest….. he doesn’t think that applies to him. He had a reaction to the pain meds they put him on and was itching all over. He thought that was more unbearable than the throat pain so he stopped the pain med and has been tolerating it with only ibuprofen. He still isn’t talking much, not that he did a ton before, I actually think he might be liking that part.
I added just a few photos. We just don't take as many as we should.....again its that time thing and being busy.
It will get better!
