Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

I found out today that I’ll be returning to clinical next week. I assume I’ll be starting on Tuesday. I should get my schedule on Monday. We’ll see how it goes. We’ve already been told that we will be around people that have coronavirus.
Scary for sure, but be honest, I think we are ALL around COVID-positive people. So many people are asymptomatic and just don’t know they have it.

I’m not really worried for myself. I knew when I decided to go into the medical field that there are certain risks involved. The thing that concerns me is that I don’t live alone anymore. I have to stay with family right now so I can afford to go to school. My concern is bringing it back to my family. I was staying with my grandparents on weekdays to be close to the hospitals where I have clinical. With my grandparents being in a high risk category I just can’t do that now. I’ll have to continue to stay with my parents for now even though they’re farther away.

Tomorrow is the tenth anniversary of my dad’s passing. We’re all going to meet at the cemetery in separate cars and get out, one family at a time. How messed up is that?

No hugs. No shared tears. No pizza. No family game night. It is what it is.

You all know how I felt about my dad. The man who legit called me gruba świnia (fat pig 😲) as a term of endearment. The man I loved enough to accept it exactly that way. 💕💕

My heart goes out to you on the loss of your Dad. I lost my (seemingly healthy) Dad 3 years ago to a massive heart attack. He made dinner, went out to listen to some live music and never came home. Had just turned 67. So I feel your pain and I'm Sending positive thoughts your way!

Dads are the best. My condolences on your loss too.

Mine was only 62. Healthy as a horse until he got cancer.

I suppose that's pretty unavoidable right now in the medical field, isn't it? I'm assuming you'll have PPE, though? How long will you be doing clinicals?

I'm sorry you can't really support each other like you're used to. It sounds like you were a real daddy's girl? Will Mike and the boys go with you? They can get out with you, right? You will have some support?

Cancer is the worst! My mom lost her battle to cancer 2 weeks before her 64th birthday. She passed on the 4th of July, so I haven't been able to celebrate that holiday for a couple of decades now.
I lost my dad 3 years ago...not sure what he died from, but I'd guess probably a stroke. He had had a few minor ones and was on meds. I had begged him to move off the ranch and into town where someone could check on him every day and where he'd be close to medical help, but he wouldn't. So I asked him to please go stay with friends if he felt off. He was staying with a friend of his and called me (he called a few times a week) and said he was heading to the doctor that afternoon because he felt a bit off. Not sick, just off. I told him I loved him and to let me know what the doctor said. Instead, I got a call that he had passed the next morning. He went to the doctor, the doctor checked him out and said he was absolutely fine, he went back to the friend's house. He went to bed that night, and the next morning the family went to breakfast and the son heard him up and around, but then he went back to bed. The family came home from breakfast, assumed he was napping and left him alone. A few hours later, they decided to check on him and he was already gone. He had just turned 84 the week before. I'm glad the last thing I said to him was that I loved him and we had just visited the Summer before, so I have no regrets of "Oh I wish I had gone to see him one last time!", etc. And I'm glad I didn't have to watch him get sick like I did with my mom....cancer is just nasty all the way around.

Shall I make a cup of tea for you too @Goofyernmost ? I don’t need to ask about the Coffee Crisp.

View attachment 470699
Sure, but leave out all that additive to tea. It needs none. Tea straight up. I'm a man I can take it. Plus if I wanted milk, I'd have a glass of milk. You found two ways to ruin a good cup of tea, mix it with "stuff" and have a Coffee Crisp with it. That seems more like a punishment then a treat. 🤢

So I woke up bored out of my skull today and decided it was a good day for a "who knows where I'll end up" large circle road-trip starting from my apartment and ending there as well. I headed east which I know is bad for me because it eventually gets to I-95, long registered in my records of Historically important landmarks. I headed out due east and when I got to the evil I-95 decided to head north. As most of you know I have this thing about traveling north. It just doesn't seem right somehow. Anyway I found myself about 75 miles deep into Virginia before I could find I-85 (another of my historic roads) and headed back to the west and my humble abode.

Anyway, four and a half hours later I was back home having traveled one or two miles shy of 300 miles. Realizing that I had driven half way to Orlando if I had been going south. There is no moral to that story except that I wasted half a day, $3.95 in snacks and about $13.00 in gas and ended up exactly where I started from. I am a little horse from loudly singing along with The Beatles, a selection of WDW attraction songs, The Statler Bros. Billy Joel and assorted mess that I burnt to a music chip all of which feeds my car stereo. Since I had nothing else to do the road-trip seemed appropriate. Right now at 3:30pm the temperature outside is 86 degrees, beautiful clear cloudless day.

I don't think you wasted 1/2 day at all -- sounds like a really fun little excursion you went on!! :happy:

This is my favorite song to drive to. Try it next time you go on a crazy quest 🙂

Yes, we will have PPE, and there will be bag checks to make sure no one is stealing PPE. I guess that’s been a problem. Summer clinical I believe will go through July and then we’ll pick up with fall clinical sometime in August.

We all met at the cemetery this afternoon. It was an absolutely gorgeous day. We decided to all get out of our cars and just spread out. I played Dad’s second favourite song (Elvis - Can’t Help Falling in Love) and we all just shot the breeze and shared memories. And then we went across the road for ice cream.

If God didn’t want me to have ice cream, He wouldn’t have put Dairee Delite directly across the road from the cemetery. Just saying.

Glad the weather was nice for your family to get together and honor your father's memories.
