Playing Doctor.

[isabel79]

They're going on "vacation" tomorrow.  I think they're leaving sometime in the PM, but I don't know if I have to close the office or they'll leave after I leave.  Unlike previous years when we had Dr. M, we only have a doctor for 2 days.  Dr. L said he was gonna try to video conference them, but...  It might be like previous where I had to text Marna phone numbers and I just sent prescriptions.  There was one patient I actually had to do the PE for while Dr. L did the history.  In a sense it's a lot of triaging.  He also told me if needed to just fill up medical forms and stamp them.  He'll sign them if the school, etc asks for it.  I then have to do office things, like record ref / fridge temps, clear CC machines.  Water the plants...  I don't have a dog to take care of this time.  One year he got stuck in the wall...  Carlos had to crawl into the cabinet and pull him out!  Many a morning I was mopping his piss and poop.  Fun fun...  They're only be away full Wed to Sat.  Panama.  They said it's supposed the rain the whole time.  Marna hopes to see something.  Their hotel is overlooking the canal.  Oh yeah, the main reason they're there is for a conference.

I don't know what I should do about my sleep schedule.  Part of my Lenten things is not dilly dallying and getting out of bed after I pray.  But when they're away I'll be working 10 to 6.  I don't know if I should readjust and do everything an hour later or wake up same time and just relax for that hour.  I'm supposed to be "on call".  The phone might start ringing at 9.  But then in previous years he told me not to answer and just let them leave a message.  Since I was driving most of the time I couldn't really answer till 10 anyway.  Oh yeah, I have to fwd the office phone to his cell which he gives me.

Mom called a hot dog a sandwich...  I don't know how I feel about this...  Has my life been a lie???  7500centfish asked me if it was between 2 slices of bread.  Uh...  It's one piece of bread, slit in the middle.  LOL.

Podcasts.

Bishop Barron's homily.  Lol.  Maybe I should ask 7500centfish's friend...  Because I'm completely blanking on what I was gonna comment on.  It was about the older son (in the Prodigal Son parable).  He was saying how the older son staying wasn't really out of his will, but...  How did he explain it?  Not that it was a chore.  Ugh...  But he was saying he was equally in sin as the younger son.  But then that doesn't square with the father saying what he has is always his...

The Pillar.  They were talking about the Consecration of Russia.  JD was saying some people are concerned that the "right words" weren't used out of a fear / scrupulosity.  Ed then says maybe, but he thinks most people are conspiracy theorist / anti clerical.  But then Ed was also saying about the 1st point that having doubt in the love of God is the Seed of the Dark Night.  Is it?  I mean, Dark Night of the Soul is said to happen to deeply religious people.  It's partly a test, but then also a silence?  The whole "doubt in the love of God" makes it seem I've been close at times.  But yeah...  I don't think I'm holy enough or at all to achieve the "Dark Night".  I don't know...

Yeah, those 2 thoughts were poorly thought out.
