Happy Nurses Week!

Yes, it's nurses week! Hooray for us! What did my employer give me as an appreciation gift?? A CPR kit. What's that, you ask? What exactly does one need for CPR besides arms and a mouth? My thoughts exactly. Apparently in order to perform CPR properly you need:
  • gloves
  • an alcohol wipe
  • a band aid
  • a hand sanitizing wipe
  • a face shield
All contained in a little zippered pouch with a clip.


Yeah, like I'm gonna hook that thing to my belt in case I see someone passed out on the street. They're unconscious, but before I save their life, let me first sanitize my hands and put on my gloves. Yeah, right. I know it's the thought that counts and all that, but please! At least Cinnabon is giving out free cinnamon rolls to nurses this week!!! That's what I'm talking about! Open wide!


And speaking of gifts better than CPR kits, this came in the mail for me yesterday from my sister-in-law Daneise and her family!!

Daneise is a nurse as well, and has had to endure countless questions from me. This was a completely unexpected and totally LOVED graduation gift! I've been wanting a Christus for so long! Thank you SOOOO MUCH!!!! I absolutely love it!

So if you know a nurse, give them a hug! They do a lot! And they do it because they love to. I know I do!

Here's a VIRTUAL HUG!

Hope you have a good week! My parents are so excited that we still chat and whatnot. Heehee!

Oh, and that post you did ages ago where you showed all your school pics--I was dying. I think both me and you were pretty dorky kids. Somehow I've managed to remain a dork and now date one. Sigh.

If for whatever reason you're in NYC or Connecticut, let me know! I haven't seen you since we were 10!

Much love,
Rose

Quick question. . . what is the band aid for in the CPR kit? I obviously know what a bandaid is for, but why is it a part of the CPR kit?
