ignore this

Yes, I have been

I have been giving thanks, just not as promised.  Believe me, in my profession and with life these days I am overly thankful for all that I have.  I know that I am truly blessed.

That said, I will be re-purposing this blog for another idea that has been greatly on my mind lately.  Look for it soon!

I am thankfull that I have a group of friends who love me for who I am.

1/5 - 1/7

I have a feeling that there will be a theme for what I'm thankful for whenever there is a day that I work.  Especially if it was not necessarily a good day in the unit for whatever reason.  Wednesday was a work day and unfortunately there was a scenario that did not end as we wished it would have.
