Two Funerals

It's been a long week.  Two funerals in less than 10 days.

I've never seen death like this before.  So fresh.  So painful.  So raw.

I'm glad to be family.

I called off work for the first time yesterday, after working at my job for 8 months, for the funeral.

I don't feel like going back to work today.

I'll get off my butt and get ready soon though.  Pack a lunch.  Wash my face.  Put a smile on.  And get back to life....

"To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified." Isaiah 61:3

Hey Nurse!

It's hard to ignore your patients when they scream your name instead of "Hey nurse!"

"Oh give thanks unto the Lord; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people." Psalm 105:1
