Packing for Detroit Check List

So tonight I have finally finished my homework that is due on Monday. Now that the homework is all submitted I can think about getting ready for my trip to Detroit. The call off gods smiled down on me tonight and I was so lucky to be put on-call until 1 am. Yeah for me.

So I started to think about the things that I will take with me on my trip for the agency meeting. Since I am only staying one night there really is not that much that I need to pack. I gathered it all together and started to look for my carry on suit case.

That is where things have gotten a little tricky. I have no idea where it is!! I must have lent it out to some one and I have not gotten it back. I have plenty of large suitcases but no carry on ones. Note to self must buy a carry on suit case. In all honesty I probably never actually owned the one that I had I am sure that I borrowed it from some one in the family and they just wanted it back because other people actually go on vacation. Unlike me.

On a nursing funnier note have I ever told you that Gerard gets kidney stones on a regular basis. Probably not. Now I completely understand that they are EXTREMELY painful and I would not wish them on anyone but I am starting to see a pattern. He only ever gets one when I am going somewhere or at another equally in opportune time.

As a nurse I am a bit of a freak when one of my family members is sick or in need of medical care. I am usually right in the thick of it not because I want to be but because I am usually dragged in for one reason or another.

So tonight as I am in the attic looking for anything to put my stuff in I hear him yell for me. Oh yes you are right he passed another yet kidney stone!! Lets hope that this is the last one for a while.

Signing off until I am in Detroit!! Wish me luck!
