If I'm not back in a week....just wait longer!

Lots of bits of stuff & fluff floating around in the old head today,

so I'm just going to spill them!

~ My son got the job he interviewed for last week! He will be a pharmacy tech at a local pharmacy. PROUD mama right here!!

~ I started a review blog and will be moving many of my giveaways & reviews over there. I would LOVE for you to "follow" me on the new blog! DysFUNctional Mom Reviews

~ My newest client, the sassy Ms J, passed away very early on Tuesday morning. I wish I'd had more time to get to know her, and I will miss her spunky personality (last Friday, she tried to shut me in the bathroom so she could escape!). This woman was a drummer (her nickname was "Sticks"), a weaver, she did needlepoint, beadwork, and who knows what else; I learned all that in a little over a week.

~ We finally have water again! What a relief. I was afraid it was going to be a huge, major project.

~ I'm going away next week! I'll have my laptop but I doubt I'll be around much. I will have some guest posters though, so check in!

~ I wanted this song to be my theme for my getaway next week, but hubby really thinks I should wear a shirt. *shrug* He's such a rule follower!

Have a great weekend!!

Don't 4get to visit Mrs 4444 for more Friday Fragments.

That's quite a welcome...

Obviously, I can't tell you any detailed information about my job, for patient privacy reasons.

But I will throw out a few tidbits that don't violate anyone's privacy.

Like how my day started out this morning with my new client.

I'm going to call her Ms. J. And I'm going to tell you that she is terminally ill, and has some confusion. When I walked in this morning, she immediately remembered me and even recalled my name. Then she told me that something weird was going on, and mentioned that Sex in the City was on the TV. I confirmed that yes, it was indeed Sex in the City. At which point she got up and yelled down the hall to her daughter, who I'll call Sue.

"SUE!! Cyndy is here and there is p0rn0graphy on the television!!!"

That's maybe the best opening line of a new job EVER.

Also, she was very concerned with making sure I got paid properly. She was asking a lot of questions about it, then suddenly said "Do you know what I want you to do with the money you make today?" and I said "What's that?" and she exclaimed with delight, "Buy yourself some ice cream!"

It was SO cute. And although I won't actually get paid until Friday, I did indeed buy some ice cream tonight, because....well, who needs a reason to buy ice cream?!

P.S. I'm pretty sure they serve Publix Premium Peach Cobbler ice cream in heaven.
