Oh golly - what a day.

It's been a wild and crazy day. . . started out the morning with a rapid response. . . and another patient with a heart rate in the 40's, at the same time. . . got them both under control (made one a DNR, and got the other one some meds for the heart rate). . . then got an admission from ER that decided to drop his BP -- apparently had perforated his bowel , so off to emergency surgery.

Whew. . . got off work and stopped by the grocery store to get some TP. . . some elderly man in a handicapped parking space yelled for me to stop a piece of paper, that was blowing in the wind. I chased it about 5 blocks before I got it -- turns out it was a check worth over $3000. He offered to buy me dinner or a drink but I declined. Just glad I was able to catch it.

This is random acts of kindness week - -so I guess that counted for mine today.

Oh -- and I was informed they were having a potluck for all the February birthdays, on Wednesday -- what was I going to bring? Seems like they forgot it's my birthday this month too. They aren't asking any of the other birthday people to bring in anything. AND they don't want me to cook anything, due to my cold -- and could I bring a main dish? as they already have people bringing chips, soda, veggie tray. Sheesh. Ahhhh well. Guess whatever I figure out to take will be my random act of kindness for that day too.
