Thankful for Day 20

Promises Kept....now that's worth a shout of thanks for sure.

Earlier this Fall, my employer met with myself and some colleagues.   Facing a significant shortage of nurses, they asked for our help in helping solve a staffing crisis.  Close to 20% of the schools in our community did not have an assigned nurse, nor were there any applicants wanting to take on the challenges of school nursing.   As we talked, we helped them realize that the biggest obstacle is financial compensation.    It really boiled down to salary.

Today was pay day....the first pay check with my newer rate of pay!   Yeah Baby....a pay raise is always worth giving thanks for!
