Progress



My new job has been both exciting and slow at the same time. I really believe it is an important concept.. culturally safe nursing practice in our First Nation communities. But, it's been looked at before, and I uncovered a complete manual which has already been completed. This leaves me wondering whether I should reinvent the wheel or work on the previous information.

A pile of meetings and information sharing sessions have been put off until the new year, which also leaves me in a hurry-up-and-wait kind of situation. What can I do to look busy at work when I know that January is going to be crazy, crazy busy?

We had snow like there was no tomorrow. I went to Ukee for a day and a half, and ended up stuck there. I tried coming back to Port on Thursday, and hit some black ice, sliding about 100 feet and barely missing 2 semi-trucks. So I went back to Ukee and stayed a few more days. I got some stuff done at my Mom's gallery, including some framing she was behind on.

Tonight I move my horse to her new home, and at 1:30 I get my dog's ultrasound done to check for puppies.
