Weather: Sunny, with hot and muggy temperatures.
Air quality: the fine smell of charcoal is wafting around the neighborhood as people grill. Not as much as usual, though, since everyone's getting those gas grills.
Mood: Bubba has taken a break from playing outside. All is good.
All the ingredients of a great holiday weekend, which ends for me tomorrow. Back to work for the holiday. I can't complain.
Stay tuned.

LRR part 2
If you read the last installment, you'll understand why I abbreviated the title above.
Yes, it did certainly seem a bit like Groundhog Day at the Hotel, with a twist. Mr. J. ended up sick, then sent to our lovely sister hospital for a workup before the holiday starts. Yes, keeping an acutely ill rehab patient on a unit staffed with skeleton crew for the first major holiday of the season is NOT a good thing. Thank you Dr. F. for finally figuring out this important fact.
Mr. J. wasn't thrilled, but since he'd like to possibly make it back in time for his son-in-law to bring his favorite barbeque this weekend, he thought it was a good idea. Amen!
Thankfully, Mr. J. was still being evaluated by the time I left, so I was not required to fill out all of his discharge paperwork. Hooray!
In the grand scheme of things, repetition can be a good thing.
Stay tuned!
