Heat

It's sizzling in our neck of the woods, even though, last week, it was flooding. Go figure.

Work was just as hot. Nothing terrible, but some rooms, especially the ones I was working in, were so warm, that I quickly started dripping once I put my isolation gown on and headed in the room. I had to wipe my brow several times while working with one of my patients who was on bedrest. He was antsy, so I told him, I'd rather not drip all over him.

Abductor pillows are the hot commodity on our unit. Can you say total hip anyone? I don't mind abductor pillows...until you have to turn people. They are just not the best thing to maneuver, but with one of our patients, I use the pillow to hold stuff in front. The pillow is stiff enough to handle it.

I threw another application out there for a specialty scholarship. Hopefully, I'll get it.

The weekend is coming...I can't wait!
