Simplicity

My family has experienced a few 'bumps' lately.

I have found myself texting, emailing, and FB msg'ing an extraordinary amount lately.  Which is not my nature.

So, I stated my thoughts in a short and succinct manner, and thought that was to be the end of it.  I received a long response in return.  I almost ignored it, yet I responded none the less... in an even shorter and more succinct manner.  Was I baited?  Did I nibble?  Perhaps.  Shame on me. 

Yet, today I received a text from a friend asking me two questions.  I not only responded, I actually called them to discuss the questions, the situation in which they arose, and proffered my input.

As an Emergency Nurse, I have come to the understanding that what a patient tells the Triage Nurse, is different from what they tell me, which is again different from what they tell the physician.  Same person, one motive, three different explanations/stories.

Life is simple.  Wake up, do, interact, sleep, repeat until death.  Oh, and eat every now and then!
