Happy Nurses Week, ICU Nurses

Amid the beeps and alarms of machines, You stand tall in all the scenes  A guardian angel for the ill and weak, Sick, frail, and patients who can't speak Your compassion knows no bounds, Your dedication, as you make rounds You give care to those unfortunates And soothe their pain with care and courage Though the daily shifts may seem long, And the days in a week ahead uncertain, Take heart, dear nurses, and stay strong, For many lives you lift some burden Your tireless efforts do not go unnoticed, Your sacrifices are deeply appreciated, For you are the ones who keep us grounded And give us the strength to persevere, undaunted. So here's to the nurses in the ICU, Thank you all for work that you do, May you find more power and push through And know that we are grateful to you.

September Morning


Simple week, simple blessings with cookies, a nice walk, and sweet dog
My not-so hectic week in pictures

It is the month of September. It is getting cooler. We have two months left in the year when the weather is still tame and every morning is still good for a nice stroll in the park. I have some things to be thankful for. I will try to list ten.
  1. Sweet cookies from the Donation Alliance for the nurses.
  2. A cute pose by Velvet in the morning. Isn't she cute, up-side-down or right-side-up?
  3. Twin Lakes Open Space walking trails. This trail has lots of shades!
  4. Paul walking with me.
  5. We are still shedding some unwanted pounds.
  6. Healthy food to help us lose weight. Paul does it with reducing fat intake mostly and walking alone.
  7. An exercise coach to motivate me to do my home workouts. Paul and I are hoping to shrink one size smaller to look good in swimsuits for a future trip to . . . 
  8. My daughter and I doing well so far in college. 
  9. Installment plans to pay for college.
  10. Sprouts grocery store for refunding me my money for a bad service one day.

    The walking trails sound like a wonderful place to explore.
    Velvet is definitely looking quite relaxed. Doggie yoga?
    Future vacations are great motivators for losing weight!
    Wishing you well in your course work and in the week ahead.
