Soul2Soul II

Wishes do come true!  For those of you that don't know who or what Soul2Soul II is....it's Tim McGraw & Faith Hill in concert.  For weeks I've been checking out tickets on Ebay for their concert in Jacksonville & St. Pete all the while hoping they would come to Orlando.  Well......guess what...they added on another show & they'll be here Saturday June 3rd & guess who has great seats?  Me!  Thank you TicketMaster!!!!  I cannot wait to go.  Tim McGraw is my favorite singer & I like Faith a lot too.  This is going to be great.  Yes, I did see his special on tv last night & I also have his latest cd.  The man is just incredible!  I can't wait for his movie to come out...My Friend Flicka.

I worked Tues & Wed this week.  I've been debating about whether to work tonight, but I think I'll just take it easy (as usual).  It was a decent week...no real emergencies.  The only thing that really stands out is the first night I got an older gentleman that as soon as night came, he sort of lost it.  I was told by the day nurse that he was perfectly fine all day long...I walk into him wanting to get out of bed to get a hamburger & to go see his broker.  We manage to get a posey vest on him although that makes matters even worse.  He's yelling & swearing & threatening the staff.  Luckily he was med/surg status & a bed opened up.  I called report & we moved him down to med/surg.  The med/surg nurses were not happy...they tried to send him back, but that didn't work. I told my tech that we had to get out of there quickly & we did.  I already had two other confused patients, I did not want this one back.  Luckily, my other two patients were pleasantly confused & not yelling out or trying to get out of bed like this one. 

I also attended an "I-connect" meeting...it's the new computer system that we are going to be changing over to.  I'm happy about it.....I'm all for less handwriting & more typing as well as more time to spend with the patients.  Anyone out there have any experience with it?  What do you think of it? 

I have a somewhat busy week next week.  I work Sunday & will probably pick up Tues & Thurs.  I have my nephew's baseball games on Mon & Wed.  On Saturday I'm taking my niece to Libby Lu's (makeovers for girls...http://www.clublibbylu.com/) with her best friend to reward her for doing well in school.  She got 5 A's & 2 B's on her latest report card. 

I've been working out with my friend Kelly at the YMCA.  We've been at it about a month now...I keep losing & gaining the same 6 lbs.  Not fair!  We do weights & then a cardio class on Mon, Wed & Fri.  It's entertaining to say the least.  Much more fun when you have someone to joke around with.  I saw an infomercial about "Turbo Jam" last night...it looked like an interesting work out.  I have a bunch of Tae Bo cd's, but I'm looking for something different.  Any opinions? 

Now that I got up to get my concert tickets...I'm going back to bed for a nap.  Hope everyone is having a good weekend!
