I bought a fucking useless watering can today
Just because I liked the look of it

Declaration of faith
Declaring life abundant
For myself and those
I love
God grant us all life
In Your never ending grace
May I focus
On the goodness
You envelope
And surround me in
Everything
Name three great things from your weekend?

Getting On
Nurse’ humour is, I know , an acquired taste.
I watched Getting On the other night, which was a sitcom based in an over worked and fraught nhs hospital ward. It’s a work of genius and captures perfectly the screwball nature of very dark humour.
I was reminded of a conversation I had fairly recently with a patient who was somewhat challenging in nature.
He asked me to do something that I was not prepared to do and the subsequent conversation was roughly as follows after he had sworn at me and was now sulking
Patient :”Have you always been a nurse who argues with their patients?”
Me “ I like to think I’m assertive but fair“
Patient: “ I will take that as a yes then”
Me (smiling sweetly) “ no problem”
Patient: “ Have you killed anyone this week?”
Pause
Me “Only two this week”
Patient: “ Only two?”
Me”It’s been a slack week”
Patient laughs
Patient: “What’s your name again? …I might have to report you”
Me “Beverly Allitt”
Patient laughs again
