Nursing is my second career, and I'm so glad I made the change. I don't always love it, but most of the time I do.

    Christmas Eve Sunday December 24 2023

    I've wrapped the presents and "Santa" has filled the stockings. I've done a lot of complaining (thank you all for listening). But, especially in light of things that have occurred at the hospital...

    Christmas Eve Sunday December 24 2023

    Wow, Tweety! What a great gift! The incident with the gift in the dog crate sounds like something that could happen around here. Twin A is most likely working outside. They actually set up...

    Christmas Eve Sunday December 24 2023

    Merry Christmas Eve! It felt good to be at the church service (and singing!) this morning. There is a Christmas Eve service... right now... and I would have gone but am afraid I might be contagious....

    Twin B greeted me this morning with "Merry Christmas Adam" and it took me a moment to get it. No one else showed an interest in planning dinner so ... we are having a smoked ham and various...

    Yeah, that was not the most gracious way to handle receiving a gift. And I think it sounds like a fun gift anyway. Plus, it benefited the animal sanctuary, so a win, not a fail. Hubs got a big...

    One of mine (Turbo) has been prone to hairballs all her life. I need to talk to our vet because Binx continues to have diarrhea/loose stools and we need to discuss quality of life/ end of life with...

    I hope Toby is doing better. Stars, what a big day and a lot of work! Glad they're being so helpful. It was always a potluck around here. I've only read about the "covered dish" meal. In...

    That looks like a nice camera, Joe. Years ago when I was first on my own I got interested in photography and bought a Canon AE-1 that I really enjoyed using and experimenting with. Of course, that was...

    it's odd that sometimes when I reply more than once in a day I have an option to"clear the editor". And sometimes I don't. Oh, well. As Hubs is "Mike" he has always been very familiar with that...

    All good things, Stars! Joe, what kind of camera did you get? Leo was actually quite good. Hubs didn't watch. He'd had a frustrating evening with his mother and wanted some alone time....

    Slow starting the day. Hubs declared he had to go to the lake to put the new registration stickers on the boat. So after getting Gma breakfasted and toileted he left. I got to clean up after the dog....

    The eye Dr thinks Gma had a reaction to the combination antibiotic/steroid drops. Made Hubs feel better. So now we have different drops. Twin A finished his final. Twin B is sleeping since he...

    They got referred to the eye doctor. Hubs is grumpy because he felt like he was being judged by the NP. And he asked Twin A to feed the cats while he did the doctor runs but Twin A "has to get ready...

    It rained overnight and will rain off and on today. But today is the day I arranged to take a little time off to do the shopping/shipping/decorating. The boys agreed to go with me. Hubs was going to...

    Tweety, that Asian food looks good. When we were getting Hello Fresh meals to cook sometimes the results would look that good. I did really like the Korean BBQ bowls. Work has been a wild place...

    Oh, and stepson has been sending multiple texts. I muted the conversation so at least my phone doesn't ding with every text. They're crazy and make little

    Yikes, Tweety. You were right to make everyone aware of that. Didn't do much today except bake a birthday cake. Now I've had far too much sugar but it was a good cake! Hubs got the Christmas...

    When I was a kid we would mix peanut butter and pancake syrup and eat that with bread for a snack. Hectic day at the hospital today but has settled down now. Twins A and B are 29 today....

    I hope your BiL doesn't have long-term problems. I don't blame you for some impatience about keeping the momentum going on clearing stuff out and moving to the larger space. Here is my door...

    How fun to see the woodpeckers. I'm suddenly aware it's only 20 days until Christmas. When I got home this evening Hubs was in a very grumpy mood. Darby dog had multiple accidents in the...
