Ok... How do they say it on "Jaws" you all know me you all know how I make a living............
Well today at the mission I drive in from a day of speech giving and drive into Basic Missions and what do I see but four little wheelchairs looking back at me.. all cocked back in the sleeping position.. with naked occupants with little handtowels covering thier essentials.. Now for once in my life I was speechless.. My guys were sunning thier lily white skinny little bodies.. and DID I MENTION NAKED.... now part of me just wanted to get inside and pretend nothing out of the ordinary was going on.. the normal part of my brain wanted to know two things.. A.) who got them butt naked and who was planning on putting thier clothes back on and B.) Why in the name of sense could they all not where shorts like the rest of the sun bathing population...
The strange things here is that I truely did not want to walk over to the sun patrol and have to risk those towels being blown away since none of them could move to catch them.... And today is very windy here... So in my o so tactful way I shouted across the parking lot that there better be nurses in thier apartments and they better high tail thier little tails inside and get dressed pronto.. well they all blew into thier little vent motors turned around laughed at me and went in to get on shorts........ Something tells me I was being set up.. but you never know they did yell back that tomorrow they would have another surprise for me.. Jimmy Cricket.. I should have taken a picture for you guys.. but I thought I would spare you all that.. just lets say the story speaks for itself... so if you think you have handled some wierd shit in your day please commisterate with me and share.... these guys are going to drive me nuts in a jazzy ultra wheelchair with power tilt...
Callie, you're too funny! You really show that keeping a sense of humor is the best thing ever! I'm going to remember this story when I start working at the children's hosp. :)
Callie honey...How do you do all that you do? My goodness...you offer so much to so many... Thank you for sharing your work, your love, and your stories.
This one needed no camera--you painted us quite a picture! Yikes!
