Workday lunch, served with a side of cranky

It’s been busy.  July was my turn to run the Same Day Sick Clinic, which is always a … “fun” time. . In case you can’t tell by my tone, I’m not a big fan of Same Day Sick.  I get that it’s important, and there are times when you see someone who is truly … Continue reading
