Call night, so I get an extra hour of call. I can live with that. Other than a little onslaught of admissions right around 6 pm, my night has actually been pleasant. It probably had more to do with someone going out of his way to come find my office to visit- but whatever it takes. It scares me just a bit (good scared, not bad scared) how content it makes me to spend time with him. I have truly enjoyed every moment we've had the opportunity to spend together lately, which is a lovely place to find myself and find us.
Happiness/ Gratitude list, 1 November 2008:
- Tucker's newfound love for the shower. Every time I get out, he has to shake himself off. Fearless and funny, that's my boy.
- Friends who bring out our best. Friends who push us to achieve our best. Bethanne and Sherri, that's for you :)
- Today's quote from my calendar: "Success is getting what you want; Happiness is wanting what you get." Thank you, Ingrid Bergman. Here's hoping that I'm falling into both categories- mostly because I can't imagine success without happiness.
- Hearing footsteps coming down the hall towards my office earlier this evening- no one is EVER in this hallway on Saturday nights. Seeing the smile that went with them. Realizing what an important part of my world that smile is becoming.
- 4-year-old snuggles. I got some of those, too, walking through the burn unit earlier. They were good for my soul.
