4-18-12

So today was good. Spent the day with my super fab group of nursing students. Eight of them. Yeah, they're amazing. Educated, experienced, kind, capable, and committed. Way cool. Oh, and over half of them are Aquari. Aquariuses? Aquarians? (one of those).

Got up early. Ate oatmeal w berries. Guided 24 nursing students on a continuum of care. Started with a lecture with a palliative care nurse practitioner. Then a tour of an outpatient wholistic cancer center. Then a hospice house. Then late lunch at the local. I love being a teacher and love my students. They are superb human beings.

Spent time at home with dog. Weighed in @ WW. Lost 4.6 pounds, yay me. Bought a dress for my nephew's wedding. A summer wedding in Tulsa. Hot? Yeah, prob. Got a wash & wear, missoni-type zigzag print in black/white/gray in a satisfactory size. Have the shoes, good to go.

Then a local organizing meeting for a big fall fundraiser. Lots of people, pizza ( I refrained!), laughs, and a touching video clip.

Home again. Sat on the deck, 40-some degrees so a little cold, dusk. Fluff rooted around the grass and gardens. The leafus giganticus, spinach, kale, and peas are coming along nicely. Pansies and daffs too.
