Rolling Stones

Can you believe it???   At th age of 58 I am going to my first rock concert!!!!!!  My daughter and I are going to see the Stones.........  She asked me why I never went when I was in Nursing School...  Mainly because no one had any money or a car........The weather is to be good tonight.   With a high of 78 and to get chilly this evening.   I am taking a hooded sweat shirt for when it gets cold and if it rains I will just put up the hood.   I am picking her up from work and then we will drive into town.    Then I hope to find somewhere to eat, that is not too crowded and walk across the river to the stadium.

These letters are still driving me nutso.  I hit to increase the size but it does what it damn well pleases.    I hit the keys for size 14 and they are still are unequal.   Today is a beautiful day, weather wise.   At the end of this week it is to get colder.   I also have off tomorrow, who knows what time we will get home but I know for sure it will be late.

PA looking better and better

I have decided that Pennsylvania is looking mighty good..........................I used to worry about the snow storms, but, what is the worst that can happen????   A few days of screwed up traffic and a few power outages.   We don't have hurricanes, volcanoes or earthquakes.   Very Few tornadoes, I might add....I will not worry about the snow and major snow storms, because in the grand scheme of things they are mostly benign.

One summer, about ten years ago we had a major storm.   The power was out for 3 days and the worst was that we had no A/C  and lost all the food in the freezer.   That is now observed as a minor irritation.......

Monday

Work on Saturday was long and hard.   Worked with the black sheep surgeon, who doesn't know how to behave.   He got an A for behavior that day.  I think he is afraid that some one will write him up again.   Some people blame others for all their problems and fail to see or understand that they did it to themselves.   Or maybe he is just plain psycotic..........

Off today and had to get numerous errands done.   It is pushing the end of September and it is MUCH TOO WARM.   What is the problem.   Sometimes I wonder if the end of days is coming.....Not being a terribly religious person, but this does creep into my thoughts....Now I am sounding like a nut......But I wonder.....

My initial assesment was correct.

Earlier in one of my rants,  I expressed the feeling of distrust of management.  It has come to pass.   First we found that my corporation has signed a done deal.  From all the options it looks like the best.

With the decreasing reimbursements from insurance companies of the past 10 years, health care is the only one whose expenses keep increasing and the reimbursement keeps decreasing.   It seems that the hospitals refuse to reimburse the contracted amounts that they were contractually obligated to provide.    Our group went and signed a contract with a health care provider to be aligned with.    It is the idea from our original group that the hospital will try to woo the nurses from the MD corporation and then break the contract.     These hospital administrators must be a bunch of arse holes.   The essentially SCREWED us five years ago and now potentially want us back?????????    I don't care what they promise I WILL NOT DO IT.   Someplayers at this hospital administration  group have very short memories.   I haven't heard from them yet.   But, in my opinion some people have feces for brains.....................It will remain to be seen......

Still pondering the type.

I am still at this.  Why  does the type seem off????   I have been looking in the help section and did not find a section on how to set the type permanently.   

My computer expertise goes on with new problems and challanged each day.  Everyone is at work.   I spent the day going to the library and nothing much else.   Had to put the A/C back on because it appears we are going to have a hot spell.     I am sooooo tired of the hot weather.   In all honesty I dread to see summer come.   Some one would consult a psychiatrist if that got out.

Wednesday

Why is this size still small.   I will have to explored the bowels of this to find the answer.   Chuck was home for the arrival of the tech guys to install the wireless.   Why when I am waiting they come late or not at all, and when he is waiting they come one hour early????    It ain't right.

They got it installed with no trouble.   I still can't figure it out at all.  That ain't right either.   But I am glad it is going well.    

We are all off tomorrow.   Emily had requested tomorrow off so she could get the resume done.   And she also got an apointment at her doctors.   When you only get your schedule one week in advance it is difficult.   Well, you would know they both had to cancell.  Some days it just doesnt pay to get out of bed.

Unbelievable.

Some body changed my print and it wasn't me.   I think it was my daughter.   The network is down and I told her not to change things and somehow things are changed.  

On call last night and was busy till 10.  Even if I worked all night, my ight would be better than a lot in this country.  

I am amazed by the devistation.   There will be a lot of casting of blame and lawsuits I am sure.   What can you do with the forces of nature.    I say prorgams on the television talking about how vulnerable NO was.   But it is with human nature to believe that it isn't going to happen to me........

I am glad I live in PA where all I have to deal with is snow and ice.And the price of gas.   I feel that this is the biggest price gouging in the history of the country....
