Second Wedding!!!

Well my second wedding is this weekend...I think I must be insane. This has grown as complicated as my last: dresses, tuxes, flowers, hair appointments, photographers, the whole thing all over again. Except now I am also trying to start a new school year as well. I will be so glad when this is all over. Wish me luck!

Magnets

Yeah! So happy that folks are posting. So I'm on service taking care of patients in the hospital this week and just heard follow up from a patient I took care of last time. She's a very mischevious 3 year old who came into the ER with belly pain and when I talked to her in the morning she smiled and whispered to me, "I ate my necklace." Sure enough, big fat metallic looking structure in her small bowel on xray. Well, usually these things "pass" :) on their own, but this one was pretty big. Not sure how she swallowed that sucker. She ended up having surgery to get them out b/c she was obstructed. I just talked to Mom and she said the surgical team took out one of those bracelets made of magnets that this little one had won at the county fair. Bet she's getting one long time out. Good thing is, she's all better. :) That's my fun story for the week so far. Hope all is well with everyone. Keep writing! :) Heidi

First day of school

So today was the first day of schoo and I am absolutely exhausted! I taught all day today, with only a 25 minute break for lunch - 3 chemistries in a row! Tommorrow I have my plan period, one AP Environmental, and one more Chemistry. The kids seem pretty good so far, but they were really quite and scared silly still today. Next week will be the real test when I see who they really are. I have 151 students in this year, which is just ridiculous. I don't know how I am going to remember all of their names. Right now it is just a sea of faces!

Take care.
