    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Daily Diary's Entries

    Okay, Folks~ I went out to the bank and the the pharmacy and picked up sodas and juice. Hubby called me 3 or 4 times thinking I should be coming home shortly. But with lines in the places I...

    My Coworkers are Driving Me Nuts

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    Way back when, some nurses would slip into a patient's room and watch Soap Operas, and would hang there until either they got caught or until a commercial came on. Then the next room they went to...

    Another mean-hot day, with high humidity. I am plopped on the sofa, noodling around on the laptop and half-listening to the baseball game. The announcer just said what a great game the Braves were...

    GOOD TV

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to MEDFET's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    Have heard really fine reviews of this show, but haven't yet watched it. There is only one TV here and one of the persons here (Do you suppose it might be Nannie?), I'm sorry to say, have deeply held...

    Should nurses be forced to wear tracking device at work?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    YIKES! Maybe get a line into the overhead, upon which you can report to the entire hospital, "I am in the nurse's restroom." or "I stepped into the stairwell to yell a very loud, rude cuss-word,...

    I'd say you are entirely correct. Telling someone to wean down their drinking is still 'permission' to drink. He couldn't just place 5 bottles on the bureau and stretch out their consumption over the...

    Telling People Your Nurse Title, RN or LVN

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to delrionurse's topic in General Nursing

    I say I'm a nurse, or sometimes when I want to impress somebody for one reason or another, or to make a point :"I've been a nurse for 40+ years". I was a GOOD nurse, I was an LPN, and I loved it....

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to April Rowe's topic in Home Health

    I LOVE your screen name! I am also a 'Word Slinger' ; I can throw them out and make them stick! Perhaps we might be distant cousins. I always felt honored to care for Hospice patients. My...

    Sorry to report no mail from you has arrived here. Did you have so much art on the envelope that postal workers couldn't find my address? I will try tomorrow to gather up some stuff to send to...
