Carpal tunnel

I'm pretty sure I have it, after writing all of these thank-you notes...

I would walk 500 miles...

Ok so on this road trip honeymoon, we are having our "day at sea". Meaning we are making a run as far as we can from Key West to Atlanta. As you can see from the pic we are at mile 449 on I75. Which we have been on since mile 1. We also crossed ALL 180 miles of the overseas highway. That puts us at 630 miles thus far on our trip with an additional 80 miles to go. It has been a LOOONG day. But pretty fun none-the-less.

Sacrifice

Matt and I went snorkeling earlier this week, and it was So much fun!! For me anyways.  I learned that Matt has a huge fear of sharks, so he got into the water for about 15 minutes then chilled on the boat, which is not problem.  As we got back onto the boat, he informed me that he wouldn't have jumped into the water to help me if I was being attacked by a shark!  I was astonished, but then he qualified that IF he had a spear gun, he would have jumped to my aide.

I told him that I would have jumped in to help him.  He asked what my plan was, and I informed him, matter-of-factly, that I was going to rub the sharks nose, and put him into a catatonic state..just like I saw on Shark week



Situational Awareness

As we have spent two days making our way around Walt Disney World, it has been absolutely incredible!
The first day was spent at the Magic Kingdom
And it was magical!

Everything was great...except about 50% of the park guests....
We saw tons of people yelling and dragging their kids around...you are in THE MAGIC KINGDOM!  Get a hold of your selves.  

They need to:

Fist of all: Control your children! Teach them manners and to respect other adults
Second of all: Don't discipline them in public. It's like Airing your dirty laundry, it shines poorly on yourself.
Thirdly: RELAX!

Then we went to Epcot:
Which was AWESOME!
And incidentally one of the few disney parks that serves alcohol


But Again we saw much of the same things, only to a lesser degree, as their children were mostly older, and didn't need corralled as much.

And then on to Hollywood Studios:
Which is where the story gets...unique...

We saw not one, but TWO people get run over by handicapped people!
One of those people being Matt and that person was in an electric wheelchair!
Incidentally both of the aggressors got snippy with their victims.
Which made us feel as if they thought they had the right to hurt other people because they were disabled.  
Which, BTW, IS NOT OK.  

But other than those few times, it was absolutely incredible!!! 
We loved every minute of it!

Ok Davy Jones, lets go

Which is EXACTLY what my new husband, who I love, impatient to get on the road, said to me after our lunch in Key Largo, where I was sticking my feet in the ocean. Only to tide me over until we got to Key West.
How could you not want to stick your tooties in that?!

Oh Dang!

I just realized I haven't blogged in FOREVER!!!  So here is what's been up:

I have been working like a fool!  Apparantly, being married is expensive....I'm pretty sure no one informed me of this. lol.  J/k. I really knew that, but man.  Luckily I love my job!  I have the best patients!  I told my patient not to be a turd to me today and he was like: WHAAT?!  As if he didn't know EXACTLY what I was talking about.

I have turned the big 2-4.  That's right, one year away from a quarter of a century and lower insurance prices....mostly the lower insurance.   But on the bright side, I am still 6 months younger than my VERY soon-to-be-hubby.  :-D

I have studied for and successfully passed the CPHON.. That's right!  I am officially a Certified Pediatric Hematology-Oncology Nurse.  That give me a whopping 10 initials after my name: RN, BSN, CPHON.

I have had two wonderful wedding showers.  One from my church family and biologic family, and one from my adoptive family here at Children's.  Unfortunately I haven't received any pics from the first. Here is one from the Latter:


I must say: I have the BEST friends here!!!  I have been so lucky!


Hmmm....What else what else...

OOoo.  Matt and I ventured out to a Reds game.. Unfortunately they didn't win, but here is a pic of us, enjoying the hot sun and the cold beer.


And Last, but certainly not least,  We are getting hitched in 10 days!  Ahhh!




I promise: to blog more frequently
