Okay, all you guys that enjoyed your snow this weekend: This is what I did all weekend while it snowed. I had to work 36 long hours at the nursing home with NO VOICE! Now have you ever tried to talk to "very hard of hearing" people with NO voice? It was a challenge, to say the least. (I did end up writing out messages to those who can still read) Several of them thought I was trying to tell them a special little secret and would whisper back to me.... I thought they were cute. I still have a lot of sick people on my hall, and one who is dying. It was very difficult trying to work with the patient and family without a voice. I had another nurse, bless her sweet little heart, who made all my phone calls to the doctor for me. I really did enjoy seeing the snow, but I would have enjoyed it more, being home, and resting my vocal cords. I still can't talk this morning, but I'm off to the doctor at 9:45. I'm actually going for a regular checkup, but figured if there is anything possible to make me well, maybe he'll have sympathy and give it to me this morning. I really think it's just a viral thing and will be gone in a few days anyway. Who knows? Maybe he'll tell me I can't go back to work this week..... ha! Have a great day!
