My sister is on my case!

Linda says it is PAST time I update my blog, she is tired of looking at the wedding dress blog. Imagine that...If you have kept up with her blogs you know why I haven't blogged. She has said it all and while she was blogging I was trying to catch some rest after our hectic days of cleaning out Dad's house!


Anyway, I am back to work full-time now and am grateful Dad is just across the street from school. It makes it easy to just drive over after work. I have one frustrating class on Mondays. I teach 5 HOURS to 30 students in class and then another 30 are scattered around Region 10 in Seymour, Nashville, Franklin and Greensburg! I communicate with via them video. So I have at least 3 remotes to control, a laptop and a computer project to worry about along with trying to teach. Thank goodness that class is only 10 weeks long-2 down and only 8 to go. :)


Linda posted a wonderful tribute to Dad on her blog-I certainly can't improve on anything she said BUT I have pictures from yesterday! Enjoy.


Dad opening his cards. His got several from the family and then the church gave him a card shower. He received 18 from church family. I understand there are more cards in the mail. I put some up on his bulletin board tonight and will rotate different ones every few days. He really enjoyed the cards! Sorry about the messy kitchen in the background.



Dad and Janet in her front yard.







Aunt Joyce and Uncle Hubert Gideon (Mom's brother and wife). Cheryl: note the china cabinet in the background.

A little bragging is in order. Remember my posting on Adrenalin Rush? It got published in the latest issue of MedSurg Matters Newsletter which is published by the Academy of Medical-Surgical Nurses professional organizaton! I'm quite excited about this. If I could only make time to write a full-fledged article for publishing. I have had several "moments that matter" type things and devoltionals published but not a full professional article yet. Maybe someday.
