I bought a fifth-wheel trailer to live in while I am traveling. I finally got to move into it after a series of catastrophies, such as the delivery guy dropping all 15,000 lbs of it on his truck! To celebrate my move-in, the staff threw me a "trailer trash" party where we feasted on "pigs in a blanket", pork and beans, twinkies, ho-ho's, kool-aid, pork rinds, cheese whiz and other fine cuisine. Paulina helped me dress the part with a hat, glasses and a shot glass necklace!

There is another traveler here with me from Arizona. Her name is Paulina Grijalva and it is her first assignment as well. We have both learned so much together and it has been such a pleasure getting to know her.

Due to several nurses leaving recently, the night shift staff is pretty slim........only three nurses and two techs left! They are very happy to have Paulina and I here:)

The regular staff at the family birth center work 8 hour shifts, but the other traveler and I work 12 hours so we work 4 hours with the evening shift before we join the night shift. These are some of the staff on the evening shift.
