    Doc said to tell hubby he's "not mad at him", and if he wants to try the Librium taper again, Dr is willing to prescribe it. Doc told me that he thinks hubby would do much better in a structured...

    HUH! Here's a bit of news that will not surprise Tweety AT ALL: I was supposed to wake hubby up at 9:30AM this morning because of the Dr's appt. Well, He got up an hour before I had my alarm set...

    Howdy- It is almost time to put in the chicken pot pies. Both nappers are mid-siesta; hubby said he didn't sleep at all last night, but he slept so much yesterday, that's why. Another item to put...

    Hey Tweety, The only REAL hope I have in the Dr's appt is that he puts hubby into out-patient rehab, so the *I* don't have to deal with him for however long he might be in for. I think it should be...

    Why does Nursing have to be a passion?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Guest1201734's topic in General Nursing

    I went into nursing because I wanted to help people feel better, and most of the time over my 40+ years I think I did a really good job of that. I never thought of it as a 'passion', but I did have...

    Nannie didn't want to wake up for supper. She said she ate before she got here. I told her she LIVES here and that she's only had yogurt and her meds. She disagreed with me on both accounts, so I...

    Once upon a time, years ago, I found a dry, dead bumblebee. When I picked it up the head fell off. I mounted (glued) the head as if it were a hunting trophy, on a plain, white 3x5 card, put a dark...
