Merry Christmas



Christmas is a few days away-I'm mostly ready. My family is spending our first Christmas up at the Cabin in Eden. I have to work a grave Christmas Eve and will head up Christmas morning when I get off-hopefully my nieces can wait for me. My bro Clarke is coming from California with my nephews and oldest niece Lilly-yay! My latest news, speaking of work, is that I passed my board exams so I am officially a registered respiratory therapist (RRT) instead of certified RT-yay, no more tests! I have nine more credits for my bachelors and I think I'm going to take some credits, if not all, next semester and then be done! At work I've finished my floors and Neonatal ICU areas and am orienting to the Pediatric ICU. Going from NICU to PICU is like going from middle school to high school. There's so much to know and the pace is a lot more intense than what I'm used to with the babies. Mostly I follow different co-workers while they try and teach me the ropes for a few weeks until they throw me into the fire. Working at Primary's has been a challenge-but I like a challenge. I work with awesome people and really enjoy what I do.
So, I went skiing yesterday for the first time in like 18 years. I didn't do too bad but the weather was pretty brutal-8 degrees and super windy!

Greetings from sunny California, where I still wear shorts and sandals, and cows are supposedly happier.

I'm happy to hear that you are doing well. No more classes, no more books, no more teachers, know what i mean? Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to ya.
