2/29/12

Happy leap day. Three days off in a row after doing a little over a week of day off, day on, day off, two on, day off type schedule. Was good to reconnect well with the family. Didn't do too much. We did make it up to see the original Walton's 5 and 10 store that was the major precursor to Wal Mart. Neat from such humble beginnings grew such a behemoth. Today was bath day for IRV. Got him all cleaned up and shiny. I was going to wax him too, but my motivation ran out. Just keeps plenty of items on the to do list so I don't accidentally run out some day and find myself with an excess of free time.
Got my Arkansas fishing license and took the kids fishing the other day too. They did some fishing...
But mostly the kids thought fishing meant playing with minnows.
And I am publishing the Adventurenickel.com page tonight. Try to find it and tell me how the search goes.

Lucky day

Today was one of those simple pleasure days. I woke up early and went in to work. It was so slow in the ER that they started looking for someone to send home. AS a traveler I think it is best to let one of the staff go home so I didn't say anything. Eventually they cycled through everyone that they could send home and no one wanted to go so they were going to send her home even though she didn't want to go. So I stepped in. Not only did I get to go home, I got to help out a fellow nurse. To make it even better, I already am scheduled into overtime for the week and won't miss anything from a normal check. Sometimes it works out that way. Still working on the Adventure Nickel site. I am hoping to open it up for public view and critique some time this week. I am very open to honest, helpful criticism. Please do. I am off to enjoy the rest of my free night. Enjoy yours.
