Well, I have officially landed in the land of Oz. I had my first day at work today, and I felt right at home in family practice. I was really observing another NP, but I/we saw sinusitis, allergic rhinitis, ear aches, shingles, back pain, URIs, UTIs and yeast. Even a girl who didn't show up for depo, thought she might be pregnant, and thank the Lord was not, since the 4 (count them FOUR) kids she had with her were terrors. HA!
The house is showing well, altogether 28 groups through yesterday. Darcy things an offer is upcoming soon. We shall see....
I miss everyone in Rockford, Mom, Erik, Eunice, Pam, Deb, my puppy dog. I brought Harley cat with me, and he's doing fine. He and Diego are sizing one another up even as I write this.
I have alot of thoughts about my time in Rockford, but I won't go into them right now. It's good to feel like I am home again, however.

Sorting
I have a new rule. Anything may be brought into the house as long as it will be used or eaten before we move.
I spent this weekend sorting, and pitching. Things are divided into 3 categories--keep, dump or donate. And I am being ruthless. I am not moving a bunch of crap. No, it's not going along. This is a great opportunity to clear out the unnecessary junk cluttering my life.
I think I could audition for Clean Sweep. I'd be great. Not as nice as that Austrialian/English guy, but just as efficient!

A New Adventure
Well, after many sleepless nights, much thought and some prayer, it looks like I'm ready for a new adventure.
I am giving up the world of mothers and babies, and will be moving back into family practice. And leaving the frozen north and returning to the great plains.
As of April 13, I will be finished at Cornerstone and on April 16, I will begin working for Take Care Health, in Kansas City, KS. I will work 36-40 hours/week, one weekend day/month, no call, no nights, no surgery. I will have real insurance, real benefits.
There are alot of things I will miss. I will miss my special patients, I will miss my dear, dear friend and partner, Pam. I will miss Deb. I will miss Jodi. I will miss lots of people at the office. Some more than others. I will miss many of the nurses at OSF, a few at RMH, no one at Swedes.
There's alot of work to do between now and then. I should get busy.

Enough Already
Another post on Natural Family Planning from the Mole. Argh. I've had enough.
A Wise Woman once asked me, "What do you call people who practice natural family planning?" I looked perplexed.
"Parents", she said.
Hmmm. Sounds about right to me.

OK, OK, high blood pressure meds are on the way
I have broken the law.
No, I have been speeding, well, not much anyway, and not intentionally.
I have illicitly ordered medications from Canada. Shhhh. Can't tell the Feds. I can get 100 tablets for $79, and in the US it costs me $123 for 30. Hmmmm, something seems amiss here. Why are the SAME meds so much less across the border? I really don't begin to understand.
I ordered them yesterday, and I hope to have them in the cupboard within a week or so. Then, I will take them for a while, and THEN I will let Pam take my blood pressure. Only then.
I love all of you who worry about me. Thanks.

In My Thoughts
I have had a lot on my mind lately. Serious stuff.
I have been thinking about my life and career. I really love being a midwife, being a part of new families, bringing joy into the world. But it is taking a toll on me on a personal level.
I am having trouble controlling my blood sugars. I went back on Atkins just after the 1st of the year. I have lost about 10 lbs, but, even on meds, my fasting blood sugars are still 160, and they should be 90 or less. During the day and my after meal numbers aren't so bad, but that fasting number really sucks. I haven't been able to afford my high blood pressure meds, so I haven't even taken it in months. I just don't want to know what it is. I know that has to stop, I'm going to have a stroke! My knees are killing me all the time, and I desperately need two knee replacements, but with our health insurance at work, the approximate cost would be about $5K apiece, which is ridiculous. To say nothing of the fact that I doubt I would be able to get any time off to do it. Standing for a C/Section about kills me. I did a very difficult one with KZ in December, we worked for an hour and 40 min, and by the time we finished, I couldn't feel my left leg from the hip to the floor. That would be a back issue, what with the 5 herniated discs that I have. My job is physically demanding, and although I love it, I don't think I will be able to do this for another 13 years till retirement.
Ahh, which brings me to retirement, and the fact that I have NONE. According to Social Security, if I work till I'm 66, I'll get just under $2K/month. Hmmm, by then, will I be able to survive on that?? Doubtful.
Then there's the fact that I have not have a raise in 4 years. They were generous the 1st year I was here, and then it stopped. Not that I don't make good money, I do. But some sort of recognition would really be nice.
And then there's the Mole. I positively hate working with the Mole. If this is what my boss wants, perhaps I don't belong here any more.
I really have to think about what to do here. My life may depend on it.
I like Rockford. It's better now that E & E are here, much easier for me. They do so much to make my life better, and I love them for it. I like my house, it's very comfortable, the yard is lovely, the dogs like it. But I just don't know.
This has been bugging me for nearly 6 months now. I have to make some sort of a decision soon. No decision is, in it's own way, a decision to continue in the current path.
I am so lucky to have a supportive family. They all say, do what you need to do to take care of yourself. They are truly the best.
I think of my wonderful friend and partner Pam. What would this mean to her if I changed jobs? Would she follow suit and leave too? I know she would give most anything to be closer to her kids in Omaha, and who on earth could blame her for that?What would it mean to midwifery in Rockford? Would it mean the end of midwives in Rockford. I would hate for that to happen. What would it do to Jodi? What would it mean to her practice? I feel obliged to consider these things.
See what I mean, I have a lot on my mind.

Enough already!
It has really NOT been the best week I have ever had. Let me recap...
Fri, Dec 1 - nasty snowstorm. Arrived at work, cancelled the day from noon on. No one in their right mind should be out in this weather. Went home at noon. To the hospital at 4:00, since Alicia (new midwife) thought the grand multip would deliver within an hour. Slight miscalculation, she delivered at 2 am. I got to spend 10 hours in a small room with someone who knows everything and everyone. Just shoot me.
Sat. Lost my check/debit card. Cancelled it, and had to wait till Mon. to order a new one.
Mon. It will take 2 full weeks to get a new debit card. Now how am I supposed to shop for Christmas??? Ethan called to report he was fired.
Tues - short lunch hour, drove through Beefa-roo with Deb. Got back to the office to find our order was screwed up, and instead of her chicken strips and fries and my turkey wrap, we had one cheeseburger and fries, which we ended up splitting. Good grief.
Thurs - kids left for Virginia. God help me. Mom "cooked". A term I am using loosely, very loosely. Menu: Spaghetti sauce (sans pasta of any sort), a sweet potato, 1/2 artichoke and a bowl of lettuce. Aside from the fact that sauce is generally NOT served without pasta, the combination of things was too wierd for words. The
Fri - took Mom to hobby lobby. Got a $250 ticket for parking in the handicapped spot and not hanging my tag up. I will have to appeal this one. Things are looking up, Ethan has a new job, working for the legal department of a Title Company. And he still gets to come for Christmas.
OK, time for a new week.

trash people throwing all of my trash cans in the drainage ditch in front of the house. I retrieved 3 of them, but Erik had to wade in after #4. Damn trash people. They were less than nice when I called to complain.
I called Ellie and told her she needed to hurry up and come for the holiday, as someone was going to be dead--either me, from shooting myself, or Mom, because I lost it and shot her.

An Ode to Thanksgiving
Was the night of "Thanksgiving, but I just couldn't sleep,
I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep.
The leftovers beckoned--The dark meat and white,
But I fought the temptation with all of my might.
Tossing and turning with anticipation,
The thought of a snack became infatuation.
So I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door,
and gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore.
I gobbled up turkey, and buttered potatoes,
Pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes.
I felt myself swelling, so plump and so round,
Till all of a sudden, I rose off the ground.
I crashed throught the ceiling, floating into the sky,
With a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie.
But I maanged to yell as I soared past the tress...
Happy eating to all, pass the cranberries please.
May your stuffing be tasty, may your turkey be plump.
May your potatoes and gravy have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious, may your pies take the prize,
May your Thanksgiving dinner stay off of your thighs.

OK, what I really did on vacation...
Saturday - took Mom to the hairdresser
Sunday - Can't remember
Monday - Had my knees shot with cortisone (OH, that felt goooood), went to the spa, had a facial, manicure, pedicure and massage. Had a terrible headache from the massage, my neck is a mess.
Tuesday - Took Mom to the doctor
Wedesnday - Took Mom to the foot doctor, took Harley to get "Tuetered, no I mean, Neutered"
Thursday - Took Eunice to Doctor, went to Cherry Valley Library.
Friday - Took Brisco to the Doctor, went to the Apple Orchard.
Saturday - Took Mom to the hairdresser
Sunday - Got my hair cut and colored.
There seems to be a theme here--Everyone went to the doctor this week. I spent a lot of time in the car. And I did get to sleep, and the pager is turned completely off.
We'll see when the next vacation is--the week before Christmas.
I wonder how many punch in/out I'll forget this week. How ridiculous.

Phobias, revisited
Someone asked me about what the exact term for fear of hairy moles is, and so I have done some research.
To the best of my determinations, it is
Chaetophobia (fear of hair) PLUS Dermatophobia (Fear of Moles/skin lesions), so in other words:
Chaetodermatophobia.
There you go, Jim, that one is just for you....

A Disturbing Finding
When we adopted Harley (see picture below) I filled out an adoption application which asked numerous questions, directed toward seeing if I would be a fit cat owner. One of the questions was, "what will you feed the cat?" (I resisted the urge to write "anything he wants" or "large, fat mice".) I filled in the blank with what I thought would be a good answer: Science Diet.
I have fed my animals Science Diet for the last 15 years, and had been pretty satisfied--it's pricey, but I thought I was doing the best for my animals--they are worth it. The lady at the Shelter proceeded to tell me I might want to re-think that, since the Science Diet company had recently been purchased by Colgate Palmolive and had drastically changed their ingredients. She encouraged me to check the Science Diet web site and see for myself. And she encouraged me to purchase the Canidae/Felidae foods they have available there.
I was skeptical, I confess, but I went home and started doing some research. Turns out she's right. The EXPENSIVE Science Diet foods that I have been feeding my dogs are 45% peanut hulls. PEANUT HULLS!!!
I was horrified!
I emailed the consumer services people at Science Diet, expressing my distress. And you won't believe what they wrote back--"Peanut hulls are a tasty, nutritious filler" and assured me they only use "human quality" peanut hulls.
I have lived on this earth for nearly 54 years, and NEVER have I considered a peanut hull "tasty" or "human quality". No dog or person in their right mind would intentionally eat a PEANUT HULL. What kind of an idiot do they think I am???
I immediately forwarded the email to everyone I know with animals, and I decided to NEVER feed my animals that crap again. I feel just awful knowing that I have been feeding my poor puppies PEANUT HULLS for years now. It's a miracle they even wag their tails at me at all.
I am SO MUCH happier with the new food. The DOGS are so much happier.
Just goes to show, we need to do our research.

Mammahead Report
Sorry about that, had a little hiccup.
I am enjoying my new car. I went and ordered special heavy duty floor mats, to guard against snow and salt. I am sure bad weather will be coming....
This has been a long, long day, but I can't go into it here. I am investing in a large, large bottle of exedrin for work. That, and I will be writing scrips for Valium with reckless abandon.
Everything will be all right.
Everything WILL be all right.
Everything will BE all right.
Everything will be ALL right.
Everything will be all RIGHT.
EVERYTHING will be all right.
This, too, shall pass. (Right now it feels like gall stones, however....)

Oh, boy, what a week....
Well, following the flood, I rented a perfectly awful Kia Rio (allegedly a "full size" car, what a joke) and spent the week trying to recuperate from the trauma. On Saturday, we went car shopping. I looked at a Ford Escape, not comfortable; a Honda CRV, also not comfortable, with the shift stick on the dash board??...Wierd! And finally a 2007 Saturn Vue, which was comfortable, priced right and very nice. I bought that--now I only have to pay for it forever, but it is very nice. I love the fact that it has "ON STAR" with a built in phone. It is SO cool. I just love it.
I haven't named it yet...I never did name the Taurus. Oh well, maybe something creative will come to me...

The Newest Family member
Welcome Harley. Named because his motor is always running, purr, purr, purr.
Ascent to Heaven via Drowning
I have lost a dear friend. My 1998 Red Ford Taurus passed on to the great junkyard in the sky (on to her next molecular calling) last Monday. She died a quick but brave death, by drowning. She was happily carrying me back from a delivery when she was caught in a flash flood, and drowned at about 3800 E. State Street. Torrential rains caused sudden flooding, and a 3 foot wall of water engulfed us as we tried to make our way home. She coughed and sputtered, and died. After she was pushed from the raging waters by a brave fireman, she tried to start, but could not cough enough of the water out of her engine to do so. She was pronounced dead by the mechanics at Butitta Brothers, and State Farm is paying for her memorial service.
She had a good life, and travelled to many places, inclulding Niagra Falls, Massachusetts, and Virginia. She was born in Kansas and passed on in Illinois. She was a dependable friend, always ready to take a quick trip anywhere. She saw me through a divorce, 3 houses, kids graduating college, and Midwifery School. She will always be remembered as a wonderful member of my family.
God Bless my Taurus. May she ascend to Car Heaven and live with a full tank of premium gas, a warm garage and a top-of-the-line wash and wax every other day.
