I only had to work 8 hours yesterday. I had another nurse cover for me from 3 to 7:30 pm. The WEBN firework show was last night and I had to leave work early to cross the Ohio river before they closed the bridges. They shoot the fireworks off a barge on the river, and off the bridges........................anyway, it was nice to not have to work a 12 hour day!
I can't wait for fall to get here............I love the colors and the cool crisp air.
Dad used to build these rockets. They were like 2 or 3 feet tall.......not sure if they came from a kit.............. seemed like it was always fall when he'd build them......because it was always chilly outside when we'd shoot them off........we'd walk up to the park ..................was always a big deal.............never knew if the rocket would work....or if it would blow up before it would shoot high into the sky....or how high it would fly............and if we'd recover the rocket could it go another round.................................................mom would stay home...............probably to get a break from all of us, to have some alone time...................... she always had a pot of home made veggie soup waiting for us to warm our bones when we'd get home.
