Chris,

My youngest daughter is a nurse and I'm really proud of her - she just moved from a 'regular' care floor and also taking turns caring for COVID patients to a NICU job. She is in heaven!

I think nurses are amazing. I can't even imagine doing it for FIFTY-ONE YEARS -- absolutely you deserve a hip hip HURRAY!!!

It always surprises me all over again to realize ya'll are a day behind us. That' so bizarre.

One note:
Discussing lot(s) of this and that.

Thanks a bunch -- go you!!

Hi Robyn Thanks mate snd yes the time difference is weird and sometimes makes it difficult with posting
However it is our Aussie Day today and we will have a few around for a Barbie this arvo
Plus a wine or beer
Yes 51 years today 1 was 17 now 68 Hmmmm
A few things have changed but I still love my work and do nurse bank shifts now so I can choose when and where I work ( I actually did a surgical ward 2 days ago very busy but I managed to get everything done for my 4 patients snd we gad fun too
Cheers Chrisxx

Well done Chrissy - Happy Australia Day - enjoy the celebration. You are lucky we in UK can not celebrate anything. Social distancing, wearing masks and no mixing with anyone. Congratulations also on 51 years in nursing - an achievement. Warm regards Dorothy x

Hi Dorothy Thanks heaps for your review and warm wishes
yes we are lucky here at the moment Very little COVID in Australia
mainly ones form overseas people in Quarantine but no locally acquired ones for days now
We read about your high numbers and feel for you all Hope they can get it under some control
We still wear masks when out shopping and of course all day when walking in the hospital wards
So I will have a double celebration today
