A Day in My Life




So here is a typical weekday for me:

4:30 am - Alarm goes off; snooze button.

4:39 am - Alarm goes off; snooze button again.

4:45 am - Cell phone alarm goes off; ok, starting to wake up. Take my shower. Aahh, heaven!

5:00 am - Let the dogs out; 30 seconds later, let them back in; feed the dogs; let them back out again.

5:15 am - Put on scrubs; try to flatten the frizzie mass sticking out from my head; put a little make-up on so I don't look like the walking dead.

5:45 am - Let dogs back in and give them their "cookies". Drive to Hurst Bell train station; ride to Dallas VAMC while talking to my "train friends".

7:10 am - Arrive at Cardiac Rehab; get breakfast; log on to computer and start checking in the 7:30 patients.

7:35 am - Try to look busy in between checking patients in and answering the phones (I know, hard work).

11:00 am - Lunch with one of my best buds, Crystal; watch Funniest Home Videos and have deep, meaningful conversation with Crystal.

12:00 pm - Trying to look busy again; still answering the phones; answer questions for various visitors to Cardiac Rehab.

3:30 pm - Getting ready to leave; potty break, etc.

3:45 pm - Walk down hill to the train station for the ride home; visit with all my "train friends".

5:15 pm - Train pulls in to Hurst Bell Station, yea, we're almost home!

5:30 pm - Arrive home; let the dogs out; raid the fridge, hmmm, what's for dinner? Sit down in front of TV and watch the shows I recorded.

6:00 pm - Dogs are barking, let them back in and give them another cookie. Back to TV.

Sometime between 10:00 and 11:00 pm - Fall asleep on my comfy sofa; wake up and get ready for bed; turn on ocean sounds and fall back to blissful sleep.......
