One Week Left

Well I have one discussion area left and this quarter is over at Capella. I am so very ready. After this I will take a break and do some soul searching. This year has started off with a real bang. Survey preparation, survey, budget preparation, license renewal, license audit (never had one of those before), change of marketing director, death of 2 key employees close family members, on and on.

Good news though I have scheduled a cruise to Grand Bahama for Easter Weekend, can't wait. I have to get to the sea. I need to rediscover me. When I return I will get to writing I promise myself. I have been listening to some spoken word poetry, think I will try that.

I like President Obama's style. Go get them Mr. President, US will return strong. With a leader of his caliber we cannot go wrong.

Nitey night!

Work Overload

March 13, 2009 is a much awaited date. That is the last day of class for this winter quarter. I await a much deserved break. Preparing a Plan of Correction for a recent survey, completing this Corporate Board class, training several new employees, and life has rendered me more than ready for a break. I am all excited about a meeting at the Golf village next Thursday in St. Augustine. Ron and I will take a mini vacation and stay over Friday in our special spot, "St. Augustine".

I am preparing to resume my writing career. Each of you will be responsible for my success in this area. I have added a couple of links to my Facebook account. You simply must visit if you want to take a virtual trip to the Bahamas, land of the sand, sea and sun.

Well good night for now. Sleepy and ready for bed.

Connie Sue always looking for something new to do!

Catch Up

This past week I was in what we call in the longterm care industry our annual survey. For those of you who don't know I am a Licensed Nursing Home Administrator. The survey is a grueling process, four to five strangers to your facility come in for 5 days and review random records, talk to residents (regardless of their mental status), family members, employees, and determine the type of care rendered.

The process ended up okay and actually based on others in the industry "great", however is the questions, the indecision, the curiosity, the unknown that wears you down. I would have much rather been writing stories to help others and preparing for my building project in Andros. Anyway we endured and the management staff for the most part were great. I have been doing this for over 28 years and I guess I am worn out.

Well, on to the good stuff. Ron went for several interviews and is so excited about the possibility of working as a manager at Taco Bell. All of his school papers are in and any day now we should receive his Green Card. I guess that is how you spell it. FCCJ, work, and residency these thoughts occupy most of his time. He is a great man and we laugh when we realize just how much he has had to process on his own due to my work and schoool. He is great and very flexible. That truly helps and I know it is why we get along so great. We have our days but with the help of God and Pastors Mike & Connie we think it is coming along greatly.

See I like this kind of writing it is what some would call free styling. Just telling my story not worrying about APA and all that jazz. You know this writing stuff is really therapeutic. I have got to catch up with the world. I have had my head stuck in survey books, rising early, going to bed late, what a life.

Okay I am going to get on with getting viewers and writers. Write me, email me. Let's get this blog thing going. Don't forget my FACEBook. facebook.com Connie Bend Colebrooke
