Here I am four days later. I was scheduled to work twelve hour shifts on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, then I also agreed to work today [Friday] 12 hours also. A marathon. It's also like time travel through the week. When all I do is work, and sleep, and spend 30 to 60 minutes each night on my eCornell course, the rest of the world slips by and I sort of wake up at the end of it disoriented to any events which may have occurred as I passed by.
One of the nurses at work, her ex-husband was one of the police officers slain recently in Tacoma. I don't know what to say on the card.
You say, "So sorry for your loss." No need to wax eloquent about the loss that occurred in the past with the divorce. It's always a shock or adjustment when an acquaintance dies, no matter what the history of the relationship. Yuck that this was through such violence!
