I'm what???

I seem to have a thing for finding out what kind of food I am. I TRIED to make myself Mexican food (my all-time fave), but I guess according to the description I really am Chinese food!!

You Are Chinese Food

Exotic yet ordinary. People think they've had enough of you, but they're back for more in an hour.

What Kind of Food Are You?

The truth is finally out

You Are a Strawberry

You are friendly, outgoing, and well liked by many people. You are popular, but there's nothing you ordinary or average about you. You a very interesting person, and you have many facets to your personality. Sometimes you feel very conflicted. Your different sides of your personality pull at you. You are a very sensual and passionate person. You are fiery... you can't help it. In general, you keep your passionate side under wraps. You are only wild in private.

What Type of Fruit Are You?

Cheers to Stacy

I just want to pay a tribute to my friend, Stacy. She just had her first day on the job here on Labor & Delivery as a brand new RN. I am so proud of her for everything she has been able to accomplish over the past several years!! This was not an easy road for her and I want her to know how much I love and admire her strength, wisdom and perseverence.

Stacy was one of the first people I ever met at this hospital. We both started on the maternity floor and later transferred to L&D. Stacy has been an amazing example to me and others who know her. She has worked at this hospital for 12 years as a HCA full-time and has been going to nursing school simultaneously over the past several years. She has been through so many hurdles including some very intense family issues while persuing her dream of becoming a nurse. How could any one person endure so many trials and challenges for so many years? For anyone who knows Stacy, it is no surprise that she was able to accomplish her dreams and more. When most of us would have thrown in the towel a long time ago, her strength of character and spirit were never broken by these difficulties. She is one tough cookie, and she looks great in her nursing uniform (pictured above).

Luv yer guts and yer bones Stace. Your mom is so proud of you!! So is Judy's Son!! Stacy's Mom has got it goin' on!! F-U Sniklew!!

First day jitters are so cute!!

My Littlest Angel

Who can resist a beautiful sleeping baby? I love my babies when they're sleeping; they can do no wrong and they look so absolutely innocent and peaceful.

Lucky Basket

Yahoo! I finally won something in my life. I won this awesome chocolate basket from my work for nurses week. It came at just the right time; who doesn't need a ton of chocolate on their way home from a grueling night shift? Thanks to whoever drew my name!!
