First, Moriah tagged me for a little meme that's kinda cute and been running around (frankly I'm surprised that any of you are still here with as lazy as I've been about blogging):P.  Here be the specifics:
1) Link to the person who tagged you.
2) Post the rules.
3) Share six non-important things / habits / quirks about yourself.
4) Tag at least three people.
5) Be sure the people you tagged KNOW you tagged them by commenting what you did.
My stuff:
1.  I am a neat freak at work everything has to be in it's place and any non-essentials thrown away.  All my tubings, bags, bottles, syringes must be fresh and dated.  However outside of work, I have many multiple piles all over the house and never put the same thing in the same spot twice.  Despite this, I know where everything is.  This drives my husband insane.
2.  I DESPISE putting laundry away.  I don't mind washing and drying.  I even like folding things the right way so that everything is nice and neat and the same size. . . . .and then UGH!  Hate, hate, hate, hate, hate putting it away.  What a waste of time!  Again, hubby is driven batty.
3.  I had two miscarriages before successfully carrying our son.  I spotted with his pregnancy and fretted over him the entire pregnancy (although I continued to work until the day I went into labor).  I called my hubby with each and every twang putting him into fits of despair I am sure although he was extremely supportive.
4.  I was very close to my great-grandmother growing up.  She died on the day before my first communion.  About 3 years later, I saw her sitting on the edge of my bed waving at me to let me know she was there.  My husband thinks it was all a dream.  It was in the middle of the day and I know what I saw.  Nobody else saw her.  Hubby thinks I'm insane on this point.  Whatever.
5.  My day isn't successful unless I make my patient smile at least once in my shift (barring those days when I am lucky just to keep my patient alive through my shift).  There's nothing better than to hear your patient laugh or to see their eyes light up as they smile - especially when they do it despite their breathing tubes, etc.  Makes my day every time.  No insanity with this one, just some Patch Adams therapy (Ok, maybe a little craziness from me but would you rather have Nurse Ratched?)
6.  I got my first (and so far only) tattoo at the age of 36.  It took me that long b/c I wanted something that would mean something to me no matter my age AND that wouldn't look silly when I was old (gotta love them grandmas with their skull tattoos or birds/flowers on the breasts- NICE) and give my family something to be horrified about.  I settled on the Univ of Miami split "U".  It's on my lower back.  Yeah, it's a tramp stamp but I like it and it isn't going to turn into some unidentifiable blob when I am old.  Hmmm, does that make me crazy?
hmmmmmm I think I am going to tag. . . . . . 
1. A Nurse who Knits
2. Knitting RN
3. Nurse Shar Knits
Oh, and BTW, could you tell that I had a fabulous day at work today?????!!!!???
