Irreplaceable

She probably should have stuck it out, it was only four years after all, but it was just so exhausting. The reading and writing were wonderful, but the classes and the discussion groups and the mindless testing, were just too much. After a year and a half she decided to skip college and do somethingContinue reading “Irreplaceable”

Silence V

This is part of a series. Refer to the Blog Index if you wish to read them in order. “Ma’am, can you hear me? What’s your name, ma’am?” The voice was so far away. Why was everything dark?

Silence IV

This is part of a series. Refer to the Blog Index if you wish to read them in order. I like to think I have the best team. All incoming nurses and interns vie for a position on my unit. I work my team hard but fair, and never ask them to put in moreContinue reading “Silence IV”

Chicken Tortilla Soup

Chicken Tortilla Soup

When my first child was born it was the very best thing that ever happened to me and also the single most horrific thing that ever happened to me. The first four to six months were positively awful. I can’t even find a way to sugar coat it. I would try to tell you howContinue reading “Chicken Tortilla Soup”

Trouble

It wasn’t anyone else’s job to tell her the truth. She wasn’t sure anyone else even knew. As far as she knew, everyone thought she was the life of the party. A party girl. A good time girl. Trouble. Part of that image was her own doing. She’d been told a rumor by a friendContinue reading “Trouble”

Silence III

This is part of a series. Refer to the Blog Index if you wish to read them in order. Mr. Easton. Of course I knew who Mr. Easton was. We’d all been waiting for him to call back for what felt like forever but was probably less than ten minutes. Still, as soon as heContinue reading “Silence III”

A Few Days In

So I’m officially a few days in to my self-imposed challenge of writing for one hour every day. I’m amazed at how the time literally flies by. My only frustration is having to stop periodically to run back and feed my baby who seems to wake every twenty minutes and realize I’m not there. Sigh.Continue reading “A Few Days In”

The List

Meme Courtesy of Enlightened Consciousness

It was the loneliness that did it. She could have handled just about anything, but being alone in a relationship broke her. For a woman used to needing loads of alone time it was a bit of a shock. She knew she’d never be a good military wife, but she never thought of herself asContinue reading “The List”

Silence II

This is part of a series. Refer to the Blog Index if you wish to read them in order. If you’d told him at twenty that he’d be starting over at forty-five and be remarried with two not-yet-teenage boys at fifty-five he’d have called you a liar while slapping you heartily on the back andContinue reading “Silence II”
