Ado Annie ASN, RN

Med/Surg

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.

    Stouffer's lasagna is one of my favorite easy meals. Hubs is complaining that there's no easy food around here so I will make another trip to the store. And make sure the car is in park. I did end up...

    Stars, Dr. L makes sense. I hope you can work out something for inpatient rehab. Daycare for Nannie might be a good idea. I tried don't all Hubs into it for his mother (thought it would be good for...

    Enjoy the game, Stars. Yes what were you thinking planning a 9am appointment? I (still) need to go have labs drawn but have to be fasting and it's 25 minutes away. I keep saying I'm going to do it...

    Joe, I bought a small, pre-made piña colada the other night and enjoyed it. And we finished up our bottle of coconut rum which was good in pineapple juice or pineapple-flavored sparkling water for a...

    J22, I'm glad your sister is doing well. Stars, I hope that your mood improves. You are doing a lot that you don't get enough appreciation for. Who was it that is going to Vermont soon?...

    My boss reluctantly agreed that I could be reimbursed. I hate it because I know cash flow is tight for the hospital. But then it is for me, too. I could start a fund and consider this the first...

    One of the A/C units at the (brand new!) hospital failed Friday. The guys from the company were working on it today but it's still not working. Maintenance set up several fans to keep air moving...

    Tweety, it's for the bedbugs. They literally heat up the house to some really hot temp (between 150 and 200, I can't remember exactly). It's expensive but we have tried everything else -- pesticides,...

    dianah, I admire your persistence with the watering. I decided we needed to water our little garden last week (or the week before -- it all runs together). Twin B and I bought an oscillating sprinkler...

    My book club is pretty casual about our book discussions. When there are discussion questions at the end of the book (more and more common, it seems) we might read through them and comment on them....

    Nice pictues, J22! Woke up to a 7 am phone call asking me to help the 1 nurse scheduled on the floor today. So I spent a few hours helping but I think the nurse and aide would have been fine on...

    Hope the gypsies are on the way to being well and truly banished. We had rain the last 2 mornings. And then sunny and hot. Hubs asked when I got home yesterday if we could delay the bug...

    Joe, we had close-up views of a couple of great blue herons as they flew by at the lake. We really should take binoculars with us. I made a decision yesterday, though. I am not up for sailing in...
