Just say no

This is my mom

She's looks all sweet, huh?

Well...I have this problem and it's all her fault

I can't say no to people when they ask me to work

I always hear her voice saying, "It's money. Your not sick. Don't let people down."

THANKS! 

I owe my hard working quality to her and her voice I have been hearing in my head for the last 15 years

I have finally told my nursing job that I can only work 2 nights a week instead of 3. It's getting to be too much. I need rest. 

Tomorrow is my first Tuesday off! I can't wait. Being that it's Valentine's Day makes it even more special.

Well, I got a phone call today. The other nurse that works with me decided to call in sick tonight so they want me to work tomorrow so the family doesn't go 2 nights in a row without a nurse. 

Great. You know who got suckered into working?

Yep, ME!

I guess I wouldn't mind so much except I also received phone calls from my 3 "extra" families. The families that only come occasionally and are extra money for us.

They all called and needed help this week.

I guess it's another busy week but I must say...

Thanks Mom for my good work ethic!
