Summer is officially over! We ended quite well, though. Every department finished strong, and we made it through the last weekend without any additional ER trips (making the total number 6 for the summer!!! eek!), despite certain staffers' goals to make it an "even 10."
I have finished my week of semi-vacation (I use that term loosely...) and tomorrow will head into the office to start the official "wrap-up" of the summer. That is, there is filing, note-taking, letter-writing, pictures to weed through, directories to get out, dates to finalize, and correspondence to catch up on. This is the week where the sadness sets in for me. After the chaos of Labor Day Weekend, I typically savor the quietness of the first week post-summer staff...now I will begin to miss the noise! Keswick is waaaayyy too quiet without the staff around... ;0)
Speaking of the staff...I think I can speak for everyone when I say thanks for the prayers! It was a busy summer with some rough spots, but I think we did alright. And a large part of our "success" is due to prayer support we receive from friends and family. So thanks. Thanks a latte!
Bidding a fond farewell to the summer season,
Melia :)
