It wasn’t that bad at work today – for a Monday. I am getting really tired. I have a 730 meeting in the morning and then work 11a-9p and then I go back and work 7a-5p of Wednesday. Frances is ready to kill me for working so much, but we are still short staffed. Lauren […]

Inside of a week now – and only 3 days until we leave for Pittsburgh. Well, we paid for the nice day on Saturday. It was truly a horrible shift. I admitted over 20 patients and lost track of how many I saw – I think 45 – which is absolutely ludicrous for a 10 […]

I can’t believe that we are only 1 week away. This vacation has been planned the longest of any of our cruises. It was tough waiting for the 10 day Christmas cruise in 2004, but that was booked at 15 months for us while this this has been planned for 22 months. The MedHead cruisers […]

Today was a very busy day at work. I arrived to find the hospital quite hot. The AC died yesterday, and they had to truck a new temporary chiller in. The Chiller is now parked in my ER ambulance parking lot. Maybe that will keep a few of the ambulances away—- doubtful… I managed to […]

Traveled to Wheeling and Weirton today. I met with the head IT guy at my new hospital. I’m much less concerned about the transition to an Emergency Department Information System now. This guy seems like he really has a handle on things. I can’t wait to work with him. I really don’t know how we […]

Well, we’re down to 10 days now. I really have way too much to do and not nearly enough time. I decided to not go to Wheeling/Weirton tonight. I was just too tired after work. I’ll get up early and drive in the morning. I have an 11 am meeting and a 1 pm meeting […]

OK, I guess my titles are getting boring, but the excitement and panic is really starting to set in. Way too much to do and so little time to do it in. I’m back at work again today and tomorrow, then I’m heading to Weirton to check on my mom’s house. I’ll spend the night […]

Well, we’re now down to 12 days before we set sail on the Magic. I am really starting to get nervous about how we’re going to get everything done. I sympathize with those on the DISboards who haven’t received their documents yet. At least we don’t have to wait on passports as we’ve had them […]

13 days until our journey on the Magic begins. So much to do and so little time. Trying to take it one day at a time. I’ve started laying aside the clothes that I’ll be taking and trying not to wear any that I want to take. I even made a list of what we […]

2 weeks from today we’ll be boarding the Magic in Barcelona. We can’t wait. I worked today and I work every day, except this Thursday, until we leave for Pittsburgh on the 13th. It’s going to be a very busy time between now and the cruise. Frances is also working every day until we leave, […]
