No. I felt it dig in with a hard motionless touchdown on the 3rd pass but no blood. Didn’t even see anything until I was on to the talc.

I’m taking a break. Spend over 3 hours and have most of Christmas boxed up for another 10-11 months. Been doing fine with the vaccine other than an arm being more sore than any other shot. But my neck is getting sore, a bit of a headache and a little nausea like being a passenger in a car. Going to see if I can channel @Majorrich and get in a nap.

Naps are good. They're like practice for retirement, which then allows you to take more naps.
I too get I’ll from being a passenger on a car trip. I was fine on a train trip.
Nap On!
I think I did Rich proud. I don’t nap long, but I got in 3!
Just stopping in to see whats going on at the Nurse house. Have you thought about bringing in a priest or anything else to get rid of that demon that's chopping up your face?
I could send you the dollar shave club stuff you signed me up for.
But in all seriousness thinking about ya and wishing your family the best. And also serious you want your dollar shave club back?

Hey, you guys should really check out this razor! Well, the days off have come to an ended. Like @bentheduck I really needed this time off. Getting up and out tomorrow is going to be rough. I’m an easy riser, but haven’t been getting out of bed until after 7 this whole time. Feeling much more mentally fresh, but work has a way of beating that out of you.
I was reluctant to start the weight loss journey with the cadre again, but am hesitantly looking forward to feeling better in my own clothes. Don’t worry, it will happen at its own pace as the night whisky nightcap will not be left behind.

Thank you for your service my friend. I miss it EVERY day. But I must admit, I cannot believe how nice it is to not hear an alarm clock.
Or worse, waking up and looking up at my alarm clock BEFORE it even goes off. There is a reason Nursing is so well respected as a career. It should be. It costs a large chunk of your soul.

Here we are. Made it to work. I actually pretty much disconnected from work for much of the last half of my break. I get to live in blissful ignorance for the next few hours until we start some huddles.

For me it’s my wife smacking me in the head and yelling get up!What's an alarm?
It's nice to have a system that works for everybody.
