BUSY!!

Today was a much different day than expected.  It was busy all day at work.  Not what I was expecting when I woke up this morning.  The x-ray machine is fixed so I was expecting it to be a little bit busy, but not like it was.  I got to work and found that my co-worker, Kate had been busy collecting blood.  There had been probably ten people in since eight.  So there was lots of work to be done in the lab.  So I helped her out for a bit until it was all caught up and then it was coffee time.  So I took my break.  I came back and found that there were 3 hospital patient x-rays to do.  So I got started on them.  They took a lot of work, since they were all elderly people.  I finished up the first one and then had another outpatient come in so I squeaked him in before lunch.  After lunch I finished off the in patients as well as all the other out patients that came in.  I did x-rays on 11 different people today, which is probably a record for Bella Bella.  I haven't been this busy since I was a student in Ponoka.

At four we had a little boy come in for x-rays and blood work.  We couldn't get any blood from him after many attempts.  After finishing him up after 30 minutes of trying, there was another patient in the ER.  I Stayed late and came home at 5:30.

We discovered that we didn't actually have all the ingredients for tonight's supper, so we opted for fend for yourself night.  Sonja had cereal and made a smoothie, and I had some baked cheese toast and curly fries.  They were really good and it was a super filling supper.

We have spent the night watching Grey's anatomy and generally relaxing.  We are probably going to bed shortly, just going to watch Modern Family and then off to bed for us.
