A new cousin

My cousin Greg and his wife Liz added to the Mosher brood by bringing another adorable girl into the world. Miss Lily now has a little sister, Miss DeLaney. She is very cute and weighed in at 8 lbs 5 oz. Reminds me of when Miss V was born a little over a year ago. Miss Victoria is a big girl now and she and her parents are moving back to texas. I am very, very excited. Can't wait to meet Miss DeLaney in person. She looks like a cutie and if she's anything like her big sister she will be good.

Sometimes

Sometimes it's nice to take a break from the routine and sometimes it is nice when someone can realize that you try to make the routine a little less mundane. Yesterday, not my weekend to work, I worked so that I could be off on tuesday. Needless to say it was quite interesting the "hornet's nest" I walked into. Everyone felt the need to express to me their dissatisfaction with the way the place was run on Saturday night. It's interesting because I'm not really even supposed to be one of the constant charge nurses, but lately it seems I've had to take on that role more than ever. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind doing it, but sometimes it creates bigger challenges. I am trying. I am really trying but sometimes I feel like people are trying to pummel me. Well, I guess the saying what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Hmmm...that's a good thought.

Roots

Have you ever noticed that whenever something dramatic/traumatic happens we instantly return to our roots? I don't mean neccessarily our roots of family, but that happens sometimes too. More often than not, when I say that I return to my roots I am talking about my friends. Those people whom no me better than I know myself most of the time and whom can challenge me by saying one word. Whenever something happens that I don't like or that completely and utterly rocks my boat...I turn to my roots for explanation. I have to give kudos to this group because they are always there for me and they always have some insight to lend to the situation. Who knows? Anyways, guess I should catch some more zzz's before I'm off to my new "month" of work and the new "me." :)
