Hard Week

Wow this week is difficult. I dont even really know why. Nothing new compared to any other usual week that Ive had. It just seems to keep going on forever!
I heard a nurse today say in the hallway "Oh no, I totally thought today was Friday"

Thats how I feel. Im ready to pack it in for the day, and I look at the time .... 3:30pm (I finish at 6:30). I see a patient and think wow, I have no more energy, maybe there is just one more.... I look at the schedule and there are 4 more patients to see.

This is when I remember hiking in a Costa Rican rainforest for 3 hours, getting to the end of the tour and thinking that was a great tour, Im beat, this is the end so I guess I can rest soon.... then having to hike back up the mountain for the final leg of it................

... looking ahead thinking if I can just make it to the top of this flight of steps, it must be the end....... only to see more steps around the bend... while my chest is burning with the deep breathing and my legs are on fire, shakey and ready to give out. Its just like that.... the feeling of seeing never ending steps ahead of you....also kinda like walking up a downward escalator. Except the only way off of the escalator is to get to the top.
Ugh Just one more day......
