    Annie wants us to teach cursive....

    Spidey's mom replied to NutmeggeRN's topic in School

    Another late-comer. I read the column and interpreted Annie's response as a general "you" meaning parents, grandparents, etc. I will admit to being frustrated that many parents don't teach at home....

    Do you go to work with parabens on you?

    Spidey's mom replied to RNdynamic's topic in General Nursing

    I couldn't think of the term "probiotics" . . . and was in a hurry to get to work. So I went with "gut bacteria". Yes, it was a probiotic

    Do you go to work with parabens on you?

    Spidey's mom replied to RNdynamic's topic in General Nursing

    I saw those yesterday because I went to Costco to get Tilapia. Next time, I'll get a box. I did try out some kind of drink with gut-bacteria because the sweet lady offering it looked crushed when...

    Spidey's mom replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    Do you go to work with parabens on you?

    Spidey's mom replied to RNdynamic's topic in General Nursing

    I went to the hair salon today and got slathered in parabens via color and highlighting, moisturizing shampoo and conditioner, and a hand massage with scented paraben lotion. I feel pretty . . . oh...

    Do you interact with students outside of the office?

    Spidey's mom replied to Kittery's topic in School

    Our youth sports programs are almost exclusively run by parents, who are not real school coaches. Sometimes that is a good thing. I live in a small town so I see the kids outside of work all the...

    Spidey's mom replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    Was he yanking your chain? I woke up from a dream about one of my favorite singers, Mary Chapin Carpenter. I was with some friends from work and one of them was Farawyn and we were talking music...

    Tell me why you regret about becoming a Nurse

    Spidey's mom replied to Want2BeeRN's topic in General Nursing

    LOL - everyone's perspective on "sticks" is different. I live in the "sticks" and the population in the town is about 600. There is no Starbucks or TJMaxx. But there is a famous waterfall, a...

    Spidey's mom replied to sourapril's topic in General Nursing

    Same here. Never heard of this "scholar" person. Maybe OP is from another country and they use different terminology? (Edited - OP's info states from Denver, Colorado. So, never

    C'Mon Now!

    Spidey's mom replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    No. It is fine. Supervising what your kids watch (My Little Pony) is fine. I let the 3 year old watch Mickey Mouse on my computer at times while he was here during the last 5 days. But I think some...

    Spidey's mom replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    Actually, I wrote something like this . . . but deleted it for fear of appearing too judgmental. Thanks for being a bit braver than me this morning

    Spidey's mom replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    My point as well. Lots of inappropriate shows, just on Netflix. What ever happened to reading a book before bed?

    Can you break your nose and not have a mark?

    Spidey's mom replied to Eleven011's topic in School

    Yes, you can. After applying ice, the swelling can go down. Although my daughter was hit square in nose playing third base when our powerhouse catcher tried to make the runner return to 3rd base ....

    How do you sign your credentials?

    Spidey's mom replied to heather717's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I don't have business cards as a hospice nurse but I did as a school nurse and I included the BSN there. However, honestly, I agree with you. I got my BSN about 4 or so years ago after working for 14...

    Spidey's mom replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, me too. Just figuring out which way to cut the drape and then remove the backing and placing it around/over those gaping huge abd wounds. . . scary! And each nurse-mentor has their own special...
