February 13, 2010

My husband is finally off bed rest and is rejoicing in the fact that his lovely nurse (moi) cannot impair his healing process anymore with my clumsy attempts to help.

Sooo....I thought I would offer my services up to someone else in need. I decided to assist my mom while she was in the hospital. My first assignment was to feed her a delicious meal of mashed potatoes & gravy, baked chicken, corn, and pears. She was really appreciative of my helping hand until I attempted to suffocate her by feeding her mashed potatoes through her nostrils. After recovering from that incident, we moved onto the corn. Ten very unsuccessful minutes later, my supportive husband said there was going to be a bumber crop of corn in the neurological intensive care wing of St Francis next year. Okay, so maybe I dropped a few pieces. We topped off the whole exciting event by sprinkling a little pear juice on her hospital gown and bed sheets. It never hurts to make someone a little sweeter, right?

After the past week I have learned that it is actually possible to get fired from a volunteer job.
