NIGHT SHIFTS
Don't worry, I did not fall off the face of the earth, I don't have the swine flu, and I have not forgotten all of you at home. I am in the middle of my first row of night shifts since returning to the ship. I haven't worked night shift since November (one benefit of my new role as VVF Co-Coordinator and Charge Nurse; I don't have to work as many night shifts! ) As you may recall, last year I was freaked out about working night shifts because I did not do well with night shifts in university, so never worked them. Prayers were answered last year and I did extremely well on every night shift and actually started to enjoy them. 
I am currently on a rotation of three night shifts in a row.  The past two night shifts have gone well, one more to go!  I always pray that God will give me enough energy and that I will not fall asleep. I didn't expect to have that prayer answered by me running all night long, without a chance to sit down, let alone a chance to fall asleep. Funny how God works and answers prayer, I may need to change the way I pray!Thanks for your prayers, but maybe we could ask God to sustain me and give me a chance to sit down during the shift ( I know I am asking for a lot)! Take care all!
