Do you ever have those days you just feel like you are failing? You aren't fulfilling a purpose and you're discouraged? Yeah, me too. It's how I feel today, and instead of moping I'm giving myself permission to take a break. So here you go, a funny story from my life as a resident for your reading pleasure. Grab a cup of coffee, a cookie, light your favorite candle, and TAKE A BREAK.
I preface with the disclaimer that I love little old ladies. Especially ladies in the church, because I think we often think of them as sweet, ole ladies who are soft spoken and well-behaved. This is mostly true, except, when it's not. Those little old ladies are feisty and spunky, and it's like their appearance is a disguise for the personality within. The other day one of the patients started telling us about her friend, Sugar who taught Sunday school with her. Sugar and Bunny taught together, and the kids loved it. The patient proceeds to tell us that being from a different generation she has to really watch what she says, because words don't always mean what they used to. She said, for example, when she was growing up everyone called cats the p word (except she said the word). She said one day she was teaching elementary Sunday school with Sugar and called a cat the p word, and Sugar pulled her aside and said, "Bunny, you can't use that word. It doesn't mean cat anymore." She chuckled and said she hasn't used that word since. The room was rolling on the floor after that story.
That my friend, is your break time story. You're welcome!
