I would love to have the country opened up and just raring to go by easter. Easter is a very special day for me and i see it sort of in that timeline that im thinking about and i say wouldnt it be great to have all of the churches full .

When i was in nursing school, i was talking to some friends, and we were going around the group discussing why we all signed up to be a nurse. And honestly, when i signed up for nursing school, i had these visions of myself working for a cosmetic dermatologist or something. You know, id go to work, and the real housewives would come in, and they would get a little facial filler and a lot of gossip, and wed have fun. And if you told me that just not too many years after i graduated that i would be living in a hotel in new york while i was putting bodies in body bags because this mysterious virus was mowing down everybodys grandparents, you know, i just how do you process that .
