    Today Nannie is doing the 'I have to go to the bathroom" thing about every five minutes. This time she says it is because she has to have a BM. Well, the second time she went in there, I had her press...

    My advice is to sign on with several agencies. Others I know did it and though it takes a lot of juggling with the calendar, it did get them sufficient work most of the time. Don't go to a...

    Shift rotations were always a bad idea; It messes up a person's circadian rhythms. I had a hard time doing nights in a facility. I switched to an agency where I got more long-term clients, so I could...

    I only like the beach off-season, having spent so much of my childhood amongst the crowds on the sand. Sorry, Ado, I was confused yesterday and thought it was j22 who was going to the comedy...

    I don't know if I'm a pessoptimist or opestimistic. I feel QUITE crabby sometimes, well, a LOT of times, but try not to let on, however, I'm not always so good at that. I pretend things are okay in...

    Eight (8) full loads of laundry 😖 Mrs I. P. Freely contributed to six of them, and my little "pee-tailed*" dog added to the rest. I recommend investing in any products that are labeled...

    Nannie got up at 12:45 PM. She has wet EVERYTHING, so I have lots more laundry to do. Wheeeeee😫! That's okay, because what else have I got to do?....."Trash and dishes" is the correct answer to...

    Our weather report shows it is (or is supposed to be) "cloudy", but the skies are blue and the sun is shining. Temp says 58 degrees, but I haven't gone outside so I cannot attest to the verity of that...

    Woke up with a mild attitude, Decided it was more "important" to relax under the warm covers this morning and didn't get up until 11:30 AM! Thought I would watch the news at noon, but got sidetracked...

    I put tonight's stool softener in the AM pills, since SiL has better luck getting her to take the meds with no problems. So there, Nannie, take THAT! 😊 I wish I could've recorded the ten...

    Since SiL didn't get Nannie up and dressed until after church, I just stayed in bed. Next thing I knew it was 12:45 and BiL was at the foot of the stairs talking to me (about the bookcase he is...

    tmb~ I hope the mudslide is cleared in short order. That'd be tough to deal with, I think. Hope you have sufficient supplies to tide you over. It's going to be 48 and sunny today. I don't care....

    We've got thirty-eight degrees for a high, but I don't think it has reached that temp yet, so since it will be sunset in a short while, it will start getting colder again. It's been partly to mostly...
