Perception

Yesterday, I was in Office Depot trying to decide upon a new printer when a woman went past me in the aisle and commented that "your purse is bigger than you are". Now this is not a very big purse and it is one I love and spent more than I have ever spent on a purse for. So, I very naturally took it as a compliment to my size. I decided she was saying that I was small. So I thanked her. Her response, "uh huh".

Life update

I've started back to school. I got my Bachelor's degree in nursing at University of Phoenix online. It was a lot of work, writing a lot of papers. My writing skills certainly improved, but I write like an academic which can be less than entertaining. Anyway, I decided to go for my Masters in Healthcare Administration. Oddly enough, the writing skills of the people in my classes are not as good as the ones at the bachelors level. In fact, some of the drive me crazy with poor word usage but I think I see improvement as the classes go by. Anyway, that is why I haven't been blogging. I've just been too busy.
I also changed jobs. I am still at the University Health Care System but now I work in Quality and Patient Safety. I have a lot to learn. I am also trying to get used to working five day weeks. Two days off isn't nearly enough!
Mike and I are in a campground in Wendover. We decided to take a few days off. I need to rest and gamble. I have also had about a month of intense, nauseating sinus pain. I guess I couldn't possible too stressed; I started a new job, going back to school, and intense daily pain.
