Normal Service Has Been Resumed

A particularly busy and crappy shift on Saturday and another busy night shift last night means that my body clock has been bounced around like like a good pole dancer on a slippery pole.
My patient, as it turned out had suffered a spinal injury, and so, for a change I could flex my ( considerable) spinal injury knowledge to tick all the boxes, other nurses couldn't quite reach so to speak.....I am a bit of a show off  on the quiet.......( quelle surprise! I hear you chant)...and so, I left work with a sense of tired satisfaction that I had completed a job well done

After night shift, there is nothing more delightful than early morning fresh air. The claustrophobic surroundings of work get kicked into touch, for spring green sunshine and within seconds of getting back to Trelawnyd, I have flung open the cottage windows to let in the sights and smells of home.

These are the times when I feel lucky.

Chris is working in London all week, and so it's just me and the animals at BwthynY Llan until Saturday afternoon.  I drop him off at the station with a kiss then return home after dribbling a strong costa coffee  take out all down my front as I negotiate the difficult bends back over the hill...I then make two cheese filled bagels and me and the dogs, with Albert in tow, wander over to the field  to share them under the graveyard elms, surrounded by the ever moving carpet of birds and two rather scruffy Scottish ewes

The best bit after night shift.........

I am home.......
