Hello there everyone! November seems to be flying. Thanksgiving is only two weeks away. Crazy! Dyanna's shower/luncheon was this afternoon and it went fabulous! It was nice to see people out of work- where we all had a little time to sit and chat without patients calling- (who do they think they are anyway?? ha ha). Dyanna let me know that she was at work with nothing to do for a minute the other night, so she sent an e-mail for us all. I am going to place it here, rather than with the other letters so that you can comment directly on this one if you would like to. I am thinking that I'll put them all on this way from now on.... what do you think???
Also- I am very sad to say that because of school (ruins everything fun I tell ya!) I have not been watching any Ugly Betty. (Those of you who do watch it understand my pain, those of you don't- well you should be :) ) Because of this, I am taking out the Ugly Betty Trivia of the Week section (the one that never gets updated anyway), and replacing it with something else... 80's trivia for a while??? We'll just see as it goes. Thanks guys! I love working with all of you.
Oh- and thank you Holly- she made a wonderful quilt for Dyana that we all got to write a lil' message on. It turned out beautiful!
Jeremy on nights has left us to work at the new hospital. We were all sorry to see him go, and hope that it works out well for him. Good Luck Jeremy
We also have a new secretray! Her name is Michelle, she is from Pleasent View (North of Ogden)!
Niesha made cute little winter pins for our badges- thank you!
I think that everyone knows by now, but Sarah B. got her mission call!!!! She is going to New York!!! Wahoo. She is going to be a great missionary and they are very lucky to be getting her! Oh, and don't worry folks, I checked, and as of now the plan stands that she will be coming back to work here when she is done!

Dyana's e-mail:


Dawney! And Gang! (my peeps)

Hey I'm here at the new place (the death star) working and thinking, "Oh man, my peeps at UVRMC are giving report and I'm here for another hour." 7-7 is CRAPPY!!!! So this place is literally the death star! Don't plan on coming here for surgery at least, another year! They have cancelled all elective surgeries due to the staffing situation, low supplies, and risk of liability! The 3rd time I charged on the floor I had 4 families wanted to sue the hospital for neglect to patients right for quality healthcare. I agree 100%. IHC should not of opened under the circumstances presented. On one good note..... Good thing is this place is GINORMOUS!!!! (gigantic and enormous) I get my exercise every time I work. I often think of Collete and her energy for walking around. I have to remind myself this is a good thing! :)

Well, the wedding plans are coming along, although they aren't always that fun to make. Invites are coming soon....... And yes, Brett really does exist! We keep thinking we'll have time to drop by, but wedding plans seem to consume life at this point. We were planning on living in Draper, but the realtor gave the contract to another family. So now back to the search......Dec. 1st is right around the corner!!!! OH MAN!!!!! Me, married, CRAZY!!!!!! Hope to see all at the luncheon... Sorry for those that have to work.... You will be missed.
What's new on the floor, after all I haven't worked in 1.5 weeks. I tried to pick up, but NO.... you didn't need my help. Dawney, how's school? How is Abbie doing without her husband? Tiff any morning sickness yet? Rob growing any hair? :) J/K Write me a letter... I really do miss you guys. The fantastic 4th floor! I keep comparing; and have to constantly remind myself that there will never be a group of peeps like you. Why don't you all work up here!!!! I'll keep you posted and hopefully see you this afternoon!!!!! YEAH !!! :)

Your favorite nurse :)

Dyana
