Study day and Tiago back

Wednesday 18th September woke up 6.30 as unfortunately back to work today but got 3 study days before proper work. Not sure why I was up so early since Ellie not in my room any more but Shaton and Ben also up with Ellie. Left about 7.30 and got to hospital at 7.50 to find out course not starting at 8am but actually 8.30. Was surprised but was 4 of us from our ward course was ABC of Palliative Care Nursing was very interesting. The course focuses on the introduction of key concepts of Palliative Care Nursing incorporating physical, psychological and spiritual for patients and carers when approaching end of life care. We even got lunch provided by drug reps which was a added bonus was just wraps, sandwiches and fruit platter. Then after lunch watched dying to live video which was very upsetting and had discussion about it. Realised that person I was sat next to used to work with Debbie said was missing her. Got finished early at 4pm and then straight to Rhodes had sale on in cotton kids and so e nice clothes but not sure what to get. So went to post office to post Debbie's parcel off letters and some bits left and to Coles to get bananas. It was then back to cotton on kids to get Ellie top only had in size 3 and unfortunately the star jumper had loose thread. Got back sane time as Sharon, Ben and Ellie who had a fun time at Featherdale wildlife park and Cronulla beach. Unfortunately Sharon and Ben suppose to be off to Ooera house tonight to see Romeo and Juliet but cancelled due to mechanical failure of revolving stage so have to rearrange. So decided that since Ellie in her swimsuit would go to pool but first to blow up inflatable ring but took abit as Ellie trying to help. Then I got changed but thought would be cold so put on swimsuit, board shorts and my rash vest. I got in the pool first and it was very cold got Ellie in ring and into pool as soon as feet touched water started crying must of been too cold for her so didn't stay long. Once back Sharon and Ben went to Rhodes to get present for Bens nephew as go to Canberra tomorrow. Ellie wasn't interested in her tea had chilli and rice she normally likes and went to bed 8ish. Since Sharon and Ben not out tonight decided would have Thai take away which was very nice. Thursday woke up 7ish saw Sharon, Ben and Ellie before I left who off away to Canberra now til Thursday but obvisiously didn't leave at this time. Course started at 8.30 today and was interesting again focused on pain management  and troublesome symptom management. Had lunch provided and was alot better than yesterday had sushi, pasta, kebabs and sandwiches and was a smaller company. Then after looked at specific management of symptoms and meditation session which was doubtful but felt very relaxed after and didn't fall asleep. Finished at 4ish and straight to Rhodes and had the top I liked at Jeans West half price so had to get then get Melbourne brochure for mum and dad. Then go for a run as thought should try to get back into it did 2.01 miles felt good and legs didn't ache. Home chill for abit then phoned mum and Nanna for a chat and wait for Tiago to come round as got back from Brazil yesterday. He arrived just after 8ish and go straight to sushi train at Rhodes was ok but not as much choice as one in the city. Once home Tiago had bought sone sparkling wine which was nice and not sure where time went to as bed after 12. Woke up ok this morning but didn't have time for breakfast but left together as he had to go catch train as car not sorted yet. When got to work got caroot and orange juice from juice bar and had banana which was my breakfast, very good. Last day of course and was good again did more on end of life, bereavement and drug conversions. Unfortunately the food not as good as yesterday and was a bigger company so thought would be better. When finish go straight to Coles to get a few things and was sunny when left this morning not looked like it could rain. Tiago came round 8ish and drove this time as managed to get car sorted had take-away pizza and he bought more wine.
