pajama day and I dreamt of tomatoes and Cinderella

Worked 2 evenings good and no one asked anything about my health that was really good I kind of hide if anyone comes around that I haven't seen for a while because I dont want to talk about it because I dont want to think about it but then I worry about being asked. Follow that? I think word must have gone round that I spit the dummy when asked about it because even the most inquisitive are silent. I love the way with nurses you only have to tell one person something if you want everyone to know. Such a handy trait. 

Last week on nights I protested about having the new admission as I had 2 new caesars and others but in charge person (who is a friend) says that makes 7 each, through 7 buzzing all night does not equal 7 sleeping. Anyway this week another one in charge says I notice you have two caesars a lot but we all have to do that sometimes. I said I dont mind sometimes but every week is not fair. Actually I didn't used to complain but now I just feel so tired sometimes I just cant walk that corridor so many times. 

When I picked up my husband from work I said I dont think I can do this anymore I could hardly walk to the car but actually when I started nursing at 18 I had to lie down for an hour or so after work because I couldn't stand up. Infinite needs (patients) finite resources (me). Sometimes you feel bleed dry. When I did the history of Malaysia they talked about the Indians they'd brought over to work the plantations because the malays were thought not capable of such hard work. When they returned to Indian they called them squeezed oranges. 

I looked after a lovely lady over 40, 1st baby from Iraq she called the baby Cinderella so pretty, she said everybody is dead in  Iraq. Wars are so horrible. Its all the other damage to infrastructure like hospitals as well as the straight out deaths. She said it is so nice here with health care. 

I dreamt of tomatoes  because all my joints are so sore and they get bad when I eat tomatoes. We are going to have pasta with tomato sauce for dinner but I am going to put some milk in the sauce hoping that stops the sore joint effect by cutting the acid. I think I definitely have to get tested for arthritis because I get so sore sometimes.

Oh and pajama day. One of the girls says they have pj day when they and the kids stay in their pjs and clean the house then they put the pjs in the wash and they shower and everyone and thing is clean. What a good idea.
