Here is Claudia's version of "Sunflowers" Sorry Vincent...........
Today I was in the GI Lab. I decided hell would be doing colonoscopies for eternity. I did 16, a few of them were gastroscopies too. The youngest person was 44 and she weighted about 130 pounds; she was also the skinniest. WOW what a day. Just got finished at 4:45 PM and I was glad. I was tired and called Emily and asked if she wanted to eat out; she said to pick up Chinese. I have a new favorite of Chinese dish. Garlic Chicken, it has lot of vegetables and not very garlicky. I ordered a small portion for both of us (Emily had shrimp Lo Mein) and there is enough for left overs for tomorrow. The two meals cost about $9 total for two.
Tomorrow I am working for 16 hours. I am assigned to OB, who knows what that will bring.......it is either very busy or very slow....I am hoping for slow. I will spend my day doing lunches and breaks....
I now have an offer for a book club (thanks Beth!!!). I will peruse the list and see what I want to do. Finding the time is sometimes complicated for me. It is funny, if I take something to read for tomorrow to read in my down time I will be busy as could be, if I take nothing I will be sitting around with nothing to do. It always happens, I wish I knew how that worked.
Emily was reading POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS by Augustine Borroughs. She liked it better than RUNNING WITH SCISSORS, that book I thought was the stupidest bookI had read in awhile. Maybe I will give Augustine another chance and read the first listed.
It is hot outside; and to be hot tomorrow. I am ready for fall. I like it when it is warm during the day and cool at night. Soon it will be there...Most people I talk to tell me that fall is their favorite season. But the bad thing about is you know the winter is soon to follow.
Here is Vincent Van Goghs version.
Sounds like a rather unpleasant day...I hope tomorrow is better, despite the double shift. Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteLove the sunflowers picture--they're beautiful, and so cheery.
Maybe I'll see you at the book club forum...!
Hugs, Beth
I love sunflowers & I like your version almost as much as his. I eat broccoli with garlic sauce often, love it. I hope it is busy so those hours pass quickly. ~Mary

Going from GI to gyn isn't much of a shift, but even so....maybe like going from the sewer to a gold mine, lol?
ReplyDeleteAugustine sure used a lot of literary license when he wrote his first book. He also has a brother who jumped on the wagon and wrote a book. I decided to stop after Running With Scissors.
