L&D Antics
RN1: That baby is a 2 month old! A sumo wrestler.
RN2: How big is he?
RN3: He's 11+lbs
RN2: How overdue was he?
RN1 & 2: He wasn't.
RN3: Omg really? He looks like he can eat a whole McDonald's happy meal
RN1: No a big mac
RN2: I think that's what he's been eating. He can probably eat a couple.
*Baby farts* All RNs laugh hysterically.
RN3: We are all going to hell....
Just another night on L&D.

Aaahhh! Switching from day to night shift is killing me right now. I can't go to sleep. I've heard somewhere that after 30 mins if you can't fall asleep you need to do something else....So instead of me sleeping my twitter account is now official and you can follow me @everydayempress. There is also a link on the new site. Ciao!!
This Just In....
Thought I'd share my interaction with my husband last night, Moose.
Me: So I did it, I'm now The Everyday Empress! Are you proud I followed through?
Moose:..... the what?
Me: The Everyday Empress.
Moose: hmmmm *continues only half listening and chewing his steak*
Disappointment loomed until later after Lil Bit had been put to bed when we were watching TV and drinking some deliciousness from Teavana.
Me: Must say, I'm disappointed in your lack of enthusiasm in my blog
Moose: Whhhaat?
Me: You totally acted like you didn't care.
Moose: Awww I think that its great
Me: Mmmhmmm....
Ten minutes later I think it's all forgotten.
Moose: Do you want your own domain name?
Me: Whaaaaat?
Moose: I'm getting you your own domain
So I guess I'm officially doing this blog now that my hubby has invested in me. I'm going to start moving my stuff over to www.everydayempress.com. Yay! I'll still post here until I have it all set up over there!
Seeking the Humor in Life
The baby, Lil' Bit, and I had just finished going through our morning routing (up, bottle, breakfast, teeth) and had gotten everything together for our walk (have started trying to do this every day that I am off) and literally as soon as I opened the garage door it started pooring. Lil' Bit walked out in to the rain briefly and hauled butt back into the garage looking at me like "WTH mom?" It wasn't really even that gray outside.
Instead of a walk I decided to do a workout off of Hulu. Twenty minutes into a 45 min workout I look over at the baby who had gotten quiet...always a flashing warning light....and she's got the buttpaste out that my dearest hubby forgot to put up after he gave her a bath. It's smeared all over her face, her hands, and what little bit of hair she's got on top of her head. All I can do is laugh and enjoy the moment for now. I wish my phone would have been within reach to get that priceless look on her face as she looked up at me as if to say "why did you leave this out for me to get into?" but unfortunately it was up on top of the piano so that she couldn't get a hold of it. Baby Octopus.
And of course now that she's down for a nap and I'm working on school work (supposed to be) the sun is shining. I'm taking it as a cosmic sign that I was not supposed to exercise today.
A Step in the Right Direction
As I begin this blog, which I am both excited about and somewhat hesitant, I can't help but feel as though I'm at least taking a step in the right direction. Becoming a serious writer has always been on my "bucket list" which seems to keep growing as I continue to try to cross things off. Please BEAR with me as I get started and get used to the new tools and layouts.
all the while trying to keep some of my sanity and "ventilation". I just don't see how I can create a memoir if I can't talk about such a HUGE part of me life at least a little. If you are a nurse, physician, NP, PA, rad tech, etc then you already know what I mean. If you aren't, then hang around and you'll figure it out pretty soon. We healthcare workers absolutely must maintain our sense of humor in order to stay in our field which can be pretty emotionally exhausting at times due to the roller-coaster of emotions you can experience on any given day. Anyway I highly encourage you to read about me in my profile, feel free to ask me questions. I am not ready to divulge anything too personal at the moment due to my above fear, fear of my family's privacy being compromised and because one day in the not so distance future I hope to have a new job.
