Day Drummer I send you much love for being a expert at getting blood from a turnip. My husband is on week three of hopsital stay (for who knows how long) and we both love the phlebotimists (even if I can't spell it) He's a hard stick and we would rather someone that knows what they're doing draw his samples!
I am a secretary at a small state university in Mississippi, (Delta State, home of the FIghting Okra) also a non tradtional student, working on a second degree (Psych). I want to teach somethingm, just as an adjunct- I need to keep my day job! I am also Mom to 2 fluffy pomeranians and these days I spend a lot of time driving back and forth from Cleveland to Jackson to see my husband who was just diagnosed with Leukemia.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
