My whole day was simply wonderful! It was brought on by spending time with my Austin Sisters and Brothers, on a very special wedding engagement with good food, dance and company, and topped off with the best lunch, once again, good food, good conversation and beautiful people! Now if a weekend can make a Monday wonderful, what more can one ask for! Monday blues were filled with Monday smiles, lite foot steps and whistles of the top 80's music.... And thoughts of smiles galore and laugher still ring in my mind freshly...
So yes, Joy, Joy, Joy |
I just hardly know how to begin to tell You this....
I began volunteering with Dell Children's Medical this morning on the Hematology/Oncology (Hem/Onc) floor. Half of my time was spent in orientation.....but then I was "let loose" <smile> Most of the stuff I did was trivial stuff that needed to be done. Before, I always knew it was crucial to keep things clean for these kids, but every surface ~ once it's been touched ~ must be cleaned with stuff so strong we have to wear gloves...it's so strong, it kills the AIDS virus on surfaces......because the kids' immune systems, sometimes, are non~existent. And then, I met Xaia.............<smile> I was in the lobby at a down time, cleaning surfaces, funiture, even the markers for the easel. Xaia was there with her Mom and big brother....she was probably about 5. We started chatting when she asked me why I was doing what I was doing. I told her I was giving the cooties a POW. :| But she laughed. I started asking her silly questions...and she looked up at me and said...."You're beautiful." I looked down into those big brown eyes and that was all she wrote. I was a goner! I said, 'No you!' and we went round and round with that.... And now I know why they tell us they don't want us to volunteer more than 4 hours at a time. I'm not sure I could handle more than one Xaia Experience a week. But I know I will....... |
