Reunion


From the mid to the late 90s I was working at Home Health of Chapel Hill, as a home health nurse, doing visits mostly in the Durham area. I worked there about 4 years, then the company was bought out and I moved on to other things...eventually getting to my current job. Some of us got together for lunch last Saturday. It was such fun to see people I had not seen since I left Home Health 10 years ago and to find out what they had been doing in the past decade. It was particularly interesting to hear about the different directions we had all gone in. Although I have not gotten my PhD in nursing, or started my own business, or married a rich guy, or talked any of my kids into making me a grandma...I came away feeling very happy for all of them and pretty satisfied with my own lot in life. I didn't really plan the way it all worked, but it did work out. You know, stuff happens...but when all is said and done...happiness is a choice.
