***  Part of this blog is a running blog and to be honest I haven't been running all that much.  For all the running blogs I do follow, I'm sorry I've been a bad bloggy friend.  I haven't been commenting because I haven't been reading because I haven't been running consistently.  And if I'm not running, I really don't want to read about you running.... which brings me to the point.... the running blogs I keep up with and read, you guys rock because you inspire me to run.  So, back to running!  Read more >

Growing up and going to school, I never really noticed a school nurse around, and I would have been the person to notice one. I would try to get out of school all the time. I would fake stomach aches, have the mysterious "I just don't feel good" symptoms and, at times, fake a fever. And these things would happen at school because I knew my mom would never, ever keep me home from school unless an actual fever or vomit was produced. If there had been a school nurse around, I would have been her worst nightmare. Fast forward 20 or 30-something years, and now I'm a school nurse.  Read more >
