Be helpful to each other. Haven't most of us experienced enough backbiting and negativity at work? And please don't use the phrase "eating our young". People that "eat their young" are just nasty people who are difficult to get along with. They are in every profession, every walk of life, and not just nursing. - Daytonite

   I've been steaming lots of veggies with the meals. Blood sugars haven't "crashed" lately, which is a plus for me.

   Interested... yet afraid

   sirI replied to SunshineNRainbows's topic in Legal

   Hello @SunshineNRainbows, All good questions that you have. Education is never wasted ... that's my motto. But, sometimes it doesn't always equate to what you really want to do. Once obtained, it wasn't wasted. It just didn't help you meet your final goal. You said initially that your goals were along the lines of ... policy work ... hospital administration ... maybe lobbying. Review some of the legal nurse consulting course modules from the American Association of Legal Nurse Consultants. See if these educative modules align with what you have in mind to help you reach your goals. Weigh the pros/cons. A little healthy anxiety is a great motivator when considering a major life change. Don't let it stifle you, however. You are absolutely correct. I wish you much good luck with all of your decisions. Come back and update us.

   Pandemic-ball 2020

   sirI replied to sirI's topic in Coffee Lounge's Topics

   I hope I get to watch the game, @Rose_Queen. Hopefully, I'll get to see the Yanks win it on ESPN or Fox16. 🏆 The Cards couldn't muster much offense today. But, they did take 2/3 in the series against the Pirates. 🙂

   Summer is not completely canceled - 100 FunThings to Do

   sirI replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Coffee Lounge's Topics

   I really like: 15. Smash the virus: Make a coronavirus piñata, fill it with candy and whack the heck out of it. One thing I'm thinking about doing is Thanksgiving in July. Cook a Thanksgiving dinner with a turkey or big hen and all the trimmings ... sage dressing, turnip greens, sweet potatoes, corn casserole, and cranberry sauce. Good old java joe after dinner. 😉 ☕

    Pandemic-ball 2020

    sirI posted a topic in Coffee Lounge's Topics

    The weirdest MLB season ever is about to start. Here's how baseball in 2020 could play out I love MLB. I love the Cardinals and the Yanks. Back at the end of 2019, my sat provider dropped the 2 stations that carried games so I missed all of the playoffs and the World Series. To say I was extremely upset is an understatement. Then ... I really hated it when MLB fell victim to COVID-19. And, what with all of the death and horror, I felt selfish because I was deprived of my favorite past-time. I felt guilty ... I admit it. So, now MLB is back and it will be a 60-game season. Starting it off tonight, reigning champions Washington Nationals host the New York Yankees before an empty stadium. Then, the Los Angeles Dodgers play the San Francisco Giants. And, Dr. Anthony Fauci will throw out the first pitch in the first game. As was pointed out in the article: Lots of questions about all of this.

    @hppygr8ful, I could probably try the pose, but unsure if I could un-try once in the position ... if you know what I mean. LOL! Still unable to get fresh vegetables in my area. Limited on several other foods, too. But, I'm cooking properly. I am diabetic, too. But, have frequent crashes, so been doing my best about what I can eat and how often (at least 6 times/day). I have hypoglycemic unawareness and my physician is keeping my readings on the higher side. Enjoy that BBQ!!
