Well thank you very much! I always have said parents say they would “take a bullet” for their kids, but usually, they can’t pull the trigger on the hard emotional
Stuff your kids need. I am can do it now that I’m in a place to do it and aside from the fact my daughter is well adjusted because she was baby when we got divorced, I think she is also super well adjusted because of the relationship we have.

I actually had fun on New Year’s Eve. Guess what LH! We played rummy and Mario kart. All 3 of us! I bought us all take out, we watched New Years rockin eve, grandma brought us sparklers and we all had a great time. Of course at midnight I get 2 separate texts from the ex and his wife wishing me a happy new year. I told them the same.

I went to work the next day and things are super bad. No visitors, like the whole staff of the hospital is out sick, people are being redeployed, it’s a mess. Home care agencies can’t see patients because their staff are sick. Making my job of getting them out of the hospital pretty darned hard.

Any my department is just feeling burnt out and under appreciated. The clinical staff get bonuses and incentives and we don’t. We are salaried so we don’t even get OT for the extra time we put in. Me abs a few of the RN case managers were talking and we want to get back to the bedside so we can actually make a few bucks. The morale for healthcare workers is pretty much in the pooper. I have a few of my PTO days back, came into work when it was a day off for working Saturday, and I didn’t even get a thank you. Burnt out.

Oh well. It is what it is I guess. I’m happy news, I took D and her friend ice skating and my knee is totally fine. Like it feels just like my good knee. For 4 years it did not. I’m pretty thrilled. I had so much fun skating .

So I do have a date Tuesday night. I’m not active , my card is hidden, but I can still matches abs one sent a message that got my attention. So we chatted and set a date for Tuesday night. He is another on with the same name as M. Apparently a popular name around here. And he has a 3 and a 5 year old too. What are the odds. His down fall is he is the technical director for Fox News. Hahaha. I know I said I was not going to date, but what if I missed a good one? No harm in grabbing a drink. D will be home, so it won’t last more than 2 hours and I have to go home. Always a good thjng
