Book Reading.......

[disneydream06]

Wrapped up No. 40 last night at work. I didn't expect to have any time for reading but instead I ended up with enough time to finish the book. Another aide was assigned to sit with one of our confused patients and he refused to do it, so I had to sit with the patient. Well, the patient slept for the first 4 hours, so I read my book. Not that the other aide actually worked. He probably would have accomplished as much if he had sat with the sleeping patient. UGH.....

Anyway, I read the book, "A Caribbean Mystery" by Agatha Christie. It's another Miss Marple mystery. She hasn't been feeling well, so her nephew ships her off to the Caribbean to recover and in true Christie story telling, let the deaths begin. lol...
One of my guesses ended up being half correct. LOL........

LOL...
Nah, just just half the guilty parties. :p

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

I think you should be aiming for 60 books instead of 50!!

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Nah, 50 sounds plenty to me. :p

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

haha we'll see where you'll end

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Waits impatiently. LOL......

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

I think you'll end up close to 60!!

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

WOW, I am still thinking I will be doing good to hit 50. :o

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

oh yes, that IS a nice number too

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Fingers crossed. :p

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

LOLLLLL ah come on Jon. At what number are you now and you still have more than 2 months to go

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Next book I finish is 44 I believe. :)

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

hmm;... so 6 to go?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Last night on break I visited with a friend so I didn't get much reading done. And so far tonight I haven't gotten any reading done. :o

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

am I keeping you off of it?? haahaha

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

That and the laundry.
Must go rescue cloths from the dryer. :p

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

ooppsss go rescue!!
I thought you were at work now


I'm going to sew a bit. See you later ♥

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Nope, my night off. :)

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

nights off are good

I need to do my last class tonight and then I'm 1 week off

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

I have one night to go and then I have three whole nights off. LOL.........

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

nice!! When you're off, do you live normal daytime days than? Or is your sleep still adjusted to your working hours?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Normally I stay in my night shift routine, just because it's easier then switching back and for.
Yesterday however I did kind of switch back. I was going to roast a turkey and so I needed to get it in the oven in the middle of the afternoon, so I just stayed up. So now I just want to sleep all night. UGH.......

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

it must be so hard to live like that.
I know it wouldn't be my thing at all

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

When my life is going along "normally", it's usually not a big deal, but when things come up like yesterday, it really messes me up. :(

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

somehow i don't doubt that at all

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Then I was up Monday for the Doc appointment, and then I have to be up again Wednesday for another one. UGH........

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

ah so you -did- see the doc.

I hope all is fine.
There should be a doc working nightly hours, for people like you

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't that be a riot. LOL................

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

haha yep

[mrdreamjeans.livejournal.com]

Because I went to the theatre last night and got home at 2:30am, I have yet to send the book to you. I hope to get it in the mail tomorrow.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

No worries. :)

What did you see at the theater?

[davesmusictank.livejournal.com]

Awesome -forty already!

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

I am surprised. The most I have read in one year is 44 books, and I thought that was doing great. :o

[britalone.livejournal.com]

That's a good book, glad you enjoyed it.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

It was. :)
As I read I kept trying to remember if I had seen a tv version of it. :o

[britalone.livejournal.com]

I've seen many, with many different actresses!

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

I still can't place it, but bits and pieces sounded so familiar. lol...

[kaishin108.livejournal.com]

Oh that was a good read! I am due to read some Agatha.

What you said, "Another aide was assigned to sit with one of our confused patients and he refused to do it, so I had to sit with the patient". What is up with that? I get the feeling you are very nice at work.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

If not nice, I am a HUGE push over. :o
Still trying to decide if I want to waste my breath sending an email to manager about it.
