Happy Halloween everyone! Before you read the news from this week take a look at the Halloween spirit that’s going on inside Lydia’s today. These employees went all out with their costumes and they look awesome. I hope that before the day is over I get to see more costumes that are this good.
And don’t forget, I always like to hear from you. If you have pictures of a Halloween costume that involve scrubs or a medical coat (or any costume that you think is spectacular) then send them in and I’ll post it on the blog.
Now here’s the news from the week:
