Work!

Lilypie 2nd Birthday Ticker

Work is going great. I am on my second day off now, and I am excited to go back. The ward I am on is Severe dementia! They are a lot of fun, but a handful. On Friday everyone was in a weird mood. They do something called sundowning in the evening, which is where they get very agitated and aggressive. And being Halloween too it effects them. So I gathered all the residents around the table and started passing the ball around. Now we have a couple residents that are in a vegetative state, and they were even tossing the ball around. It was amazing, seeing how they still function a bit! Then after that everyone was good, and all calmed down. I just thought I would share that story, It sure makes my job worth going to. I am really enjoying it, i just have to get some good shoes. I get home and my feet swell so bad!

Travis has been gone since Tuesday. I am missing him soo much! I can't wait till he comes home! Anyways I am going down town to get some cheep leftover Halloween candy lol!! I need chocolate!

congratulations on the job! I was going to say that Friday was Halloween and lots of people react to that.

Are you working 3-11 or 11-7?
