I ordered a palliative care consult for a younger patient this week. Although the attending thought it was a little harsh, it was the right thing to do. It reinforced my belief that the right action isn't always the easy, feel good one. She needed to hear how her self destructive behaviors are slowly killing her and hurting the people around her that she loves. The situation also sparked a conversation with my favorite hospice nurse.

talking to her put me back in touch with all of the reasons I became a nurse. It was so good to know there are some really amazing nurses out there who are willing to have the tough conversations with patients and help the team clarify goals of care.

Today I was grateful for the extra help I got on my math final because without that I don't think I would have done well at all on the final.

this benefited me because it means my grades will be better and it makes me feel good about myself.

I finished my DNP in June. When asked at a recent nurse meeting what my project was on I let them know Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction for school nurses. I was asked to present this information at a future nurse meetings. That made me feel grateful!

It made me feel appreciated and noticed.

This was my student who told me she made an extra thank you to me in her video presentation (which I do not grade so would not see). She thanked me for being an awesome professor and encouraging her through many tough times.

Warm all over...one never knows what kindnesses students are able to absorb when they are so stressed out.

I Sent a note back telling her how much I appreciated her acknowledgement...and then offered her more support after she graduates

After nearly a year of negotiations with my research IRB I was notified today that I may proceed with my study. I've learned so much along the way, and my patience with the process has really grown.

This is a concrete marker that my PhD process is moving forward and that I will make it to completion.

I am grateful for all of the rain we've received the last couple of days. I hope and pray that the water went to all of the places it's needed most.

And, I'm grateful that today when I woke up the sun was shining, the sky was clear, blue.

I will forever be grateful for my students and parents.
I was not expecting as much gratitude from them as I have received.

On Saturday my rage got the better of me and I lashed out at someone who was undeserving. I have apologized and begun to make amends for my actions, but it does not clear me of having erupted in the first place. I am human, every now and then my emotions get the better of me. Whenever they do, I tend to feel emotionally low for days on end (until I feel that I can forgive myself for the damage I caused when I became mad). My students and parents have helped me feel less bad in a time where my mental state is not in the best shape.

I bought a high quality paleo salad for lunch. It was delicious. I paid too much but it was fun to enjoy and savor it regardless.

I felt special and well taken care of by myself.
