			<description><![CDATA[I do have a fair amount of pain, but late in the day, so it's not too bad.  I am great in the morning, and that's when I will exercise-- before work.  I just wish my hours were shorter and there was less stress.  Stress wears anyone down, but I feel like it wears me down faster.  I have some mild vi...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks for sharing your stories. This is "git", aka Mary-need to figure out how to change my name. I am the nurse who started the thread on working.

			<description><![CDATA[Hey, Git/Mary 
  
 Good post, glad to know you are hanging in there!  It is very hard not to get sucked into silly office politics, but remember: You do not have energy to waste on that.  Backstabbing and spying are for people who do not have enough to do, and you've had to learn this faster than most...]]></description>
