Happy Thanksgiving!

What a wonderful holiday Thanksgiving is. I have so much to be thankful for! It's amazing when I think about all that God has done for me since my arrival in Bethel. I do wish I could be with my family for Thanksgiving but only a few more weeks and I get to be home for Christmas! I'm gonna make a paper chain to count down the days. :)
I'm feeling better- not 100% but definitely better. I went to work, because I woke up and felt much better- no temp, but then I got to work and felt horrible! It was like torture listening to my charge nurse tell me what to do. Finally I just told her "i feel horrible, I think I better go home, I can't take care of patients well" she was like "are you sure you can't stay" I was like "ummmm" she said "could you sit?". Sitting is when a patient needs constant supervision, you literally sit there and write down every 15min what they're doing. I said "sure, I can do that". As soon as I sat down I started feeling sick again but I thought, "just hang in there", and then it got better. So I literally sat there for like 8 hours, I wrote a VERY long letter to Corey to keep myself awake. She'll have to read it in increments probably. :)
It's actually really good though because I got paid for those hours. Now I have the week off to get completely better so that's really good. Whenever anyone finds out I'm sick they say "oh you got the Bethel Crud huh". One of the nurses says I'll probably get it every time I leave and come back. I sure hope not. It's cause the germs here are so strong, because of the perma-frost and all. She also said "Yeah don't order take-out, it's expensive and it makes you sick". So true! No more ordering out for me. It's like $15 for Teriyaki here! Absurd huh!
I'm boiling my yams right now, and then I'll take a short sleep before going over to Necie's for Thanksgiving dinner/lunch.
I'm thankful for all of YOU!
