It was our fast Sunday today. We had a good turn out and barely had enough food. No shortage on desserts though! I had the ward sign up to bring a side dish or dessert and desserts are just funner to make I guess. I made gravy from ham drippings. That was interesting. The boys said it was good. Can you imagine that I had a hard time getting rid of leftover brownies and cookies! No one would take them home. Next month we will be doing breakfast foods. I am excited for that.
I finished my last week of multisystem failure rotation. I was in the ICU. It was pretty nice there. You only have two patient. Both of the patients that I had were sedated and we didn't have to do much. It is learning what to say to the families that I have a hard time with. My patient died my second day there. It was an unusual experience cleaning her up and putting her in a body bag. Next week I start my vulnerable families rotation where I will get to be with the pregnant ladies and babies. Yeah! It is more enjoyable to see the start of life and not the end of it. One of my days I will be at the birthing center. It is the only place where you can have a water birth which is something that I have always been interested in learning more about.
I had a great spring break. It was fun to have mom and dad come down and see where I live. The Grand Canyon is cool but we couldn't really do anything there but drive along the rim and see it at different view points. We talked about getting a trip together and backpacking from rim to rim. I think it would also be fun to go down the Colorado river. I went to Aunt Lauryl's house on weds to see Anika. She was visiting but was sick and had been sleeping all day. I was good to see her.
Well I am going to bed because I have a paper due tomorrow and I still have a ways to go before I am finished. I hope everyone has fun going to conference next week. I am excited to hear from President Monson. That is still going to take some getting used to.

Good for you Kira...going to bed so you can do homework on Monday. I recorded Sense and Sensibility for you..it has one more week. I am glad you had enough food and that you got the dinner behind you. It is pressure wondering if you have planned enough!
