Happy Nurses' Day

To kick off the Nurses' Week celebration, we decided to dig out the old uniforms. We had a nice time reminiscing about our nursing school days and those early days on the floor as hospital staff nurses. And then we all agreed, "Thank God that's over with!" No more nights, weekends or holidays. No more getting called in to work on your day off. No more coming to work sick because you know there's no replacement available. No more aching legs and feet or trying to eat your meal in 5 minutes because patient call lights are going on. No more cleaning up stuff too foul to even mention here. Yes, indeed, we put in our time and now we could coast on through to retirement in our cushy office jobs.
