Saturday

I can not believe this December is sooooooo unseasonably warm.   It is like October.  They blame it on El Nino.    I hope the summer is not 12 degrees above normal.  

Work is as workable as ever.   They ended the contracts of the locums and I feel they won't have enough people to work.   Offered us a paltry pittance to work extra.   I do not need the money for all that aggravation.   The place is the same as usual just the names change.  

Off for three more days.   Why do the days off go faster than the days worked???   Started on a new thing....I am researching my ancestory..geneology....    Got copies of the census forms from the library.   The problem is going to be that my grandparents or the great grandparents all came from Germany or Ireland and I don't know where to go from there.   Guess I will have to study German.

Monday

To every thing there is a season, and time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace."
The Bible

Maybe we could make a song of this...whoops they already did....

Saturday

Today has been a huge bummer.   It started when I got up.  Fortunately I had already washed my hair.    AT 8 am I got called to come in to work.  Weekends are a pain in the arse.   People who are sicker than shi*   GI guys want to do their ERCPs in x-ray and these areas are all far apart.   This is a disaster waiting to happen.   Also after I got the sick guy underway  the doc got a call from OB and left me with a super critical ill patient.   Everything worked out OK, but it is a disaster waiting to happen, and I hope my name is not involved when that happens......

REtirement is looking better and better.   They promised (I really didn't believe them although I wanted and hoped it would be so..)   Cutting my benefits because now full time is only 40 hours not 36.  Although it didn't say that in print.   Now our vacation is not front loaded and I really need a sabbatical.   I hate going to work and hate every one there..........

Wednesday

Sitting here ,eating my myself, waiting for the timer to go off.  I actually bought some frozen entrees and can't wait to eat.   My daughter and husband are both working.   She complained that she didn't have any time to study, but the last 2 days she went in later.   On Tuesday they called her and today she called them.   Actually I think it worked out OK.   She has two weeks  and two days to finish this semester. 

Tomorrow is not too busy,  and Friday is even less so.....   The or supervisor had a meeting with the staff and explained that they were to be staff leveled on a egualr basis.  Haven't heard the gist of that.  Although they promised we wouldn't be either ,  that can be changed on a whim......It really gets on my nerves.  Thye treat professional people like they were minimuam wage uneducated people.   I hope some day it comes back to bite them in the arse.

"Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance."
Confucius

This is really lacking in today's society.   As I thought previously all those jerks and A-holes don't know that they are.....But they have a radar for finding each other.
