"I firmly believe that we usually don't understand the full meaning of things until later." <br /><br />Carol, I LOL'd hearing about your taking little Maggie out in the rain with her little rain-gear to go poddy. <br /><br />Today, I was sitting in an office - I thought I was all by myself and I was talking up a storm to myself and then the director poked her head in the office and I realized I had been talking to myself very loudly and emphatically - busted! She just laughed. All I could do was laugh too. Well, I realize I am still doing it - talking to myself - so guess I'll go to bed. g'nite.<br />Janjanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03444805355043272927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-36631011283077642642009-09-22T22:48:48.796-05:002009-09-22T22:48:48.796-05:00I guess everyone has gone to bed now.

Things were better - I had student-whiner today - she didn't like her assignment so I told her to "stay home then" - really I did! <br />Thanks Chloe, my problem did work itself out.<br /> Am much better now. The first 1-3 weeks of the new semester are the worst for me - after that, things settle down. This is the 2nd week so things are looking better.<br /><br />Carol, we need to put your inmates and my students togther - maybe they would straighten each other out. <br /><br />Hey Carol, your description of putting that guy's face back together reminds me of making a patchwork quilt and trying to get those little pieces of fabric to fit together. <br />What a job you have. I bet you were worn out yourself tonight. Hope you get a good night's sleep.janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03444805355043272927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-242311975701232622009-09-22T22:11:59.370-05:002009-09-22T22:11:59.370-05:00_____ ________ ___Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-38689983064382788872009-09-22T22:10:28.679-05:002009-09-22T22:10:28.679-05:00Ha, ha, ha.Ha, ha, ha.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-75190422417629974532009-09-22T22:09:33.839-05:002009-09-22T22:09:33.839-05:00Now that one time that you said it three times,and...Now that one time that you said it three times,and a fourth?

I have many who have been there for years and never been to medical. There are those also who come every week. <br /><br />I ended the day with a real jerky one. I went out to apoligize that I couldn't give this inmate an early dose of a medication I ordered because the Feds changed the pharmacy we have to use and they provide no stock doses. I even checked to see if we had any stash we could use but there were none. <br /><br />He told me, I know, you just found out I have no money and won't be here long so you are going to let me suffer. When I heard that, my secretary/security had to hold me back. I did give him a good tongue lashing.

I put on Maggie's little rain coat for her to go out to poddy. She doesn't like the rain and doesn't like the rain coat either. I needed her to hurry up and do her business because I had to go get my hair cut. The little hood was over her eyes so she couldn't see what she was doing. I was dragging her blindly around the yard.

I know the type so well. It's always about what you can do for them. And gratitude is a feeling they've never heard of. <br /><br />And manners, you can forget about them.
