Sunday fun

We had to get up early to watch the gold medal hockey game. No sporting event is complete without food in our house, so we got donuts (and Bubba got a breakfast sandwich, too, just to make sure he had enough energy).

And while I was reading, I found this article on trends from the Olympics.

Sorry, folks, I already wear PJs at work (aka scrubs). I ain't wearing a onesie, unless I end up on the bobsled team. I grew out of those LONG ago.

And if that's not enough fun for you, head on over to Sunday Stealing for this week's Fifteen meme. My answers are below.

Enjoy your day wherever you are!

Going to nursing school.

Tell your go-to “pretend” game as a child (who was your alter-ego?) 
I was a superhero.

What email service do you use? 
A couple.

What fandoms would you consider yourself a part of? 
None.

Do you use anything on your lips? (eg. Chapstick, gloss, balm, lipstick) 
Love me the Burts' Bees with color (watermelon).

How many devices do you own which can access the internet? 
About 10.

Last strong smell you can remember smelling? 
Skunk.

If you had to move your birthday to another date, which one would you choose and why? 
June 15. I want to have my birthday in summer, so I can have a pool party.

Inspiration behind your blog title? 
My job.

If you could spend a rainy day with anyone in the world, who would you choose and why? 
Hmm...so many. Living or dead, for living, not sure who...dead C.S. Lewis.

Is there a foreign culture that you love? 
I lived in France. I'd like to experience more of Europe and Scandinavia, then pick one (or two..)

Do you have a favorite soft drink?
No.

If it's Sunday...

Here in RehabLand, it's time for Sunday Stealing. This week's meme is about time (and will cause you another earworm, if you're not careful).

Here are my responses, which I would have posted earlier, but hey, with that extra hour, I've already gotten lots of work done. It will get dark soon enough, so I'll be turning in early for all the excitement as the week starts tomorrow.

Enjoy! ============================================================================================================================== 1) Do you think Daylight Saving Time is still necessary? 
To sell lightbulb and batteries, yes. For me personally, no. I just like it to be light in the morning, which will last for a bit, so...not really.

2) How long does it take you to adjust to the time change? 
Not long on fall back. That spring forward messes me up.

3) What's the hardest part of the time change? 
None.

4) How many clocks are in your house? 
Too many. I'm really enjoying the auto-set ones.

5) Are you generally early, late, or on time? 
I hate being late, so I am most often early or on time.

6) If an invitation to an event listed the time as 8-11pm, what time would you arrive? 
By 8, and be gone by 11.

7) Do you wear a watch? 
Yes, every day.

8) Have you ever glanced at the time and had to glance again because you didn't pay attention the first time? 
Of course!

9) Are most of your clocks digital or dial? 
Mixed.

10) What does your alarm clock sound like? 
A foghorn. It's ancient, but the new ones are too nice, and I sleep right through them.

11) Do you use the snooze feature on your alarm clock? 
No. I purposely put the alarm far enough away that I have to get up to turn it off.

12) Does clock ticking drive you nuts? 
Yes, this is why I don't have a clock in the room I work in (SU). If it's quiet (after all the patients are going while I'm charting) and it ticks, it drives me crazy.

Got an earworm?

You will with this Sunday Stealing.


This is the latest meme available this week at Sunday Stealing, since it's almost someone's birthday over there.

1. as you get older, are you jazzed about your birthday? 
Yes,and no. 

2. do people usually remember your birthday?
Most people do.

3. an ex-coworker used to begin 3 mos. before her birthday flat-out reminding us that it was coming up. it's amazing what no self-esteem does for you. anyway, do you know anyone who pre-announces their birthdays? 

I don't preannounce, but I try to take a vacation day every year on my birthday. If it follows close to or on a weekend (like this year), I make it a three day weekend. (Only Bubba can make it four. His falls very often on a Federal holiday).

4. what was your best birthday? why?
I had a party as a kid (I think I was 7) with tons of people and lots of food in our little house. Not sure how my mother did it, but we had fun.

5. what was your worst birthday? why? 
Can't recall any. Some are better than others.

6. name your best birthday gift.
Hmm...hard one. One year I got an engagement ring right after my birthday.

7. name the best birthday gift you've gotten for someone else.
I like surprises. Totally throws people off.

8. as i age, i value SLEEP as a priceless commodity. i didn't get any for my birthday, however. what do you want this year for your birthday?
Sleep is good, so is a trip to the spa for a day, and a relaxing evening with Dahey and something fun for Bubba to do.  

A raise would also be nice. I'm hoping that really happens, since I'm up for a promotion.


Yes, that Beatles Birthday song is going through my head...

Here's this week's meme: Random Randomness part 3. I omitted the ones I don't like, so go on over and see for yourselves.

1) What room are you in?

The kitchen

No.

7

Depends on how much money I won. Anything under $10 million, keep on working until my financial adviser and I get a plan together.

Over $10 million, I'm so out of there tomorrow (sorry Hotel folks: no offense, it's not you). Then I would take a round the world trip over the course of three months, then decide what I want to do with myself before my one year anniversary.

I would enjoy being retired so I could spend more time working with the charities I like to support now volunteering. One of my coworkers had an idea to work with rehab patients I'd like to explore in more detail.

18) Would you like to build/design your own house?


Yes, wanna see the plans? Sorry, they're still in my head, but include a backup power supply and lots of energy efficient things, HEPA filtration, and a whole house vacuum system. (That's why I'd need to win the lottery!)

19) Which form of public transport do you prefer?

Streetcar.

21) Can you juggle?

Literally, yes (about three things); figuratively, all the time.

Random randomness

Today's Sunday Stealing. Here's my answers to the questions below. Head on over there and try them for yourselves!


How did you choose your baby's or pet's names?

WildDog came with his name. Bubba's name I picked out. I told Dahey to look at whatever name he liked but that since I was giving birth, I had the first right of refusal.

He's a smart man who figured out that "happy wife, happy life" thing early.

Have you ever been fishing?

Yes, many  times. On land mostly, but a couple of times in a boat.

Have you ever had your national flag painted on your face?
No.

What makes you nostalgic?
Hearing old songs (those 1980s ones are nostalgic to me, kids!)

What's the scariest thing you've ever done?

Walk across a suspension bridge in Canada.

What fairy tale character would you most associate with? 
Some days Robin Hood, other days, Snow White (always cleaning up something!)

What's the worst piece of advice anyone has ever given you?
Don't follow your dreams. (really bad) You just take a longer route to get there.

If you had to describe yourself as a flavor, what would it be?

Chocolate (of course). Probably a nice, smooth dark chocolate. Some may say I'm bitter, but I'm just sweet enough for everyone else.

If you had to describe yourself as a car, what would it be?
A reliable sport edition sedan. Works well with a lot of people, safe, gets you where you are going. Looks nice. And has enough oomph to roll with the bigg'uns when needed.

Do you think laughing at someone else's misfortune is wrong?

Yes, but as they say Karma's a b&*th!

First day of fall

Yes, it will be fall (according to Bubba, this happens this afternoon...) and the folks at Sunday Stealing have the Fall/Autumn Meme today. Here are my answers to some of them below.

Feel free to have fun and play along!

First of all, is autumn your favorite season? Why or why not?
It depends, because I really like spring, too.

Is it ‘autumn’ or ‘fall’, to you?

Fall.  Autumn. Whatever floats your boat.

What kind of weather does your area get during this season?
Cool days and nights.

 Which leaf color is your favorite?
I have a weakness for red ones (usually from maples), but I like yellow and orange ones, too.

Is it still fun to rake the leaves and jump in piles of them? 
YES! It reminds me of childhood and a book I read as a kid about the neighbors having a big bonfire, burning leaves and putting potatoes in the fire to cook.

When can you really tell that it’s autumn?
When the leaves turn.

What is your favorite dessert for this time of year? 
Apple crisp or anything with pumpkin.

Is your Thanksgiving Day in October or November, if you even celebrate it?
I celebrate every Thanksgiving whether it's in October or November. I'm usually off around that time in October (no one wants it) so I bake a pie in solidarity with my old friends in Canada, who I miss terribly, but call and think about often. Thank goodness for Facebook!

If you do celebrate it, where do you usually have Thanksgiving dinner?
At my house.

What color do you always associate with autumn?
Orange.

Is there a song that always reminds you of this season?
Autumn Leaves (the version) by Eva Cassidy (or the Cannonball Addersley version is also nice).

Do you spend a lot of time outside during this time of the year? 
Depends.

How can you tell that fall is over?  
Snow.

What is a typical autumn outfit that you wear?
Sweater and jeans.

Do you hate it when stores start promoting Christmas early?
YES!

It's back again since it's Sunday

This one is various questions from today's version here:

What would you choose to be famous for? 
I would like to be a famous philanthropist. Since my chances right now are slim to none, I'll take the Nurse of the Year in the HotelRehab group.

If you have a webcam, are you ever paranoid people can see you? 
I turn mine off and block the view. That's all I'm saying. I'm very opinionated about this. Don't get me started!

Do you find it difficult to sleep at night? Any reason(s) why? 
Yes, my husband often steals my covers.

If you had to go on a game show, which would you choose? 
Jeopardy.

What about if you had to go on a reality show? 
I would not do a reality show. Just don't like them.

Which would you choose then? 
See above.

Tell me about your favorite TV show: 
I love the news...always different.

Why were you last irritated? 
Driving gets me going some days. I'm glad I had a good day, today.

What time did you get up this morning? 
0545. My body clock says that's sleeping in on weekends.

Do you like the countryside? 
Yes, in winter.

Do you think you’d make a good model? 
Depends on what you want me to model. I'd make a dandy scrubs model.

Would you ever want to be one? 
Not really,

How often do you change your hairstyle? 
I mix it up every so often. No idea how often. Sometimes it's the cut, other times, color.

Do you have a favorite day of the week? Which is it? 
Sunday. Of course!
