I submitted another 20 page paper Saturday night,
on interprofessional compassionate care. I didn't
finish early enough to make the AA bonfire meeting
at my sponsor's house, but nailed the paper. 100%.
Saturday night I took the 90-question HESI practice
exam but didn't quite make 80%.
I spent over an hour trying to figure out how to
sign up online for the real HESI exam, slept 4
hours, and headed to work. I had a tough group of
5-11 year-olds in the inpatient psych hospital.
The therapist Ms. Miranda lay on the floor in the
hallway with one of my boys, paper, and crayons.
Before she left the unit he presented me with a
letter in blue crayon: "Ms. Anna, I'm sorry for
biting you. I won't do it again. <3"
Bugz and her guy took down a tree all day Friday or
Saturday. They invited me to come watch. I wanted
to but couldn't. Jay and Jess invited me over for
games Saturday night. I couldn't do that either.
Evy and our daughter were in Chicago all weekend
for a conference with her union brothers, then went
to Ohio to celebrate Fathers Day with her dad.
It's summer and beautiful. I want to be outdoors
with family and friends. I want to rest off this
post-COVID brain fog.
Thank God for roommate. Saturday was his last quar-
antine day. He watched half the compassionate care
webinar with me. He listened to me read a journal
article I dug up and drafts of my paper. While he
played Don't Starve he listened all day to the rat-
tling of my new keyboard's buckling springs.
