Hello Dearest Family and Friends!
You know those moments where you think 'This will never happen again! Write this down somewhere!'... well, I had one today so I'm writing all down so we can remember it for years to come... Today I touched a gecko! He was in the middle of the pathway at the hospital and would have been run over by the many carts/trolleys that go through or stepped on if I hadn't. He just wouldn't move When I tried to shoo him away, so I actually used my fingers to nudge him to get him to move off the path. Of course there were a lot of curious people wondering what in the world I was doing and I drew quite a crowd around me... I was so proud of myself that I never even squealed! I felt like such a hero! :-)
Of course there is usually a catch to stories like this, and I would be lying if I said there wasn't one. Before you go thinking that the tides have changed and that the moon is going to crash into the earth... I guess I need to tell you that he was only about an inch long! I almost didn't see him myself and almost stepped on him! He was so cute and little! Of course I wouldn't want him inside my house, but since his job in life is to eat bugs I was more than happy to have him living at the hospital! :-)
Saving lives is all in a day's work for nurses! hee! hee! hee!
Hope this makes you smile!
love and hugs,
kimmie
