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.

    Not to be outdone, I looked up natto, too, and they lost me with describing its texture as sticky and slimy. Hubs bought a refurbished Roomba and he's quite pleased with the results, keeping the...

    Hugs, Stars. For those who saw my post that I accidentally put under May 10 (!), it turns out that Binx the cat was shot with a BB gun in his left thigh. The BB went through the muscle and is...

    SIL's soccerball-sized tumor is possibly (probably?) benign per the oncologist based on bloodwork. Not sure when they'll have path reports. Twin B and I are at the emergency vet with Binx the...

    Joe, are your zinnias not growing at all? I received 2 packets of flower seeds at church yesterday (Mother's Day). Four o'clocks and nasturtiums. I'll have to find a place to plant them. I also like...

    Yoga at the library was canceled last night due to the severe weather we had. I could have gone in the afternoon but couldn't make myself get up. (Worked med/surg 11p-7a). There were a lot of tornados...

    We have a road ? to the hospital!! (6 months, 7 days, but who's counting?) I worked med/surg from 0300 to 0700 this morning, will stay and do office stuff for a few hours and then home to bed. I...

    J22 and Tweety, thank you for your bird pictures! Tweety, yours reminds me of why I occasionally Google things like "most affordable beach communities to retire to". And conclude that it probably...

    Tweety, today she sent another picture and we are both pretty sure it's shingles. I urged an urgent care or ER if she couldn't get in to her doc and I think she'll do one or another tomorrow. For...

    Joe, if you watch Blacula let us know what you think. If I remember correctly, Superman II was pretty good. I can understand the dwindling return on investment in your relationship with J but totally...

    We're not as removed from the ER as we were in the old building. There has been a child carrying on for many minutes. I believe he/she is being transferred. That road is looking pretty good!...

    Stars, I'm tackling the ever-growing to-do list, too. Hubs wanted to file a claim against the city for our plumbing problem Easter weekend but he hates to fill out paperwork. I completed the form...

    Hullo all. dianah, I might have to try those pancakes. It's raining off and on here and looks like it will for the next several days. Good for the garden, I guess? Storms and hail possible...

    Pretty plant, J22. We finally have sunshine again. The last 2 evenings Hubs has decided we should take the convertible out to the city lake and watch the sunset. It's cool enough we run the...

    Nice photo, Tweety. I've been trying to read this afternoon but between the Gma and the pets it isn't working well. Twin A is working on a research paper for his class. Twin B works tonight so...

    Another data-ful day. Almost done, though. Yoga didn't happen yesterday because the instructor had something come up at last minute. Last night we watched Top Gun with the boys and plan to...

    I've been entering abstraction data all afternoon and I'm t-I-r-e-d. Uploaded it to the test site and have to figure out if any of these "informational messages" (there are 392 of them for 99 cases)...

    Joe, I hope the emails weren't too much. The pain is real. Because it's rarely just something informative, but something that requires a little research, some work, an answer... Good job for your...

    Ooh, I hadn't heard that about Tucker Carlson. Yes, he is a smarmy liar. The whole effort to stir up self-righteous anger on the part of the MAGAs turns my stomach. Not that I've ever had much...

    Hello all! Last night was pretty tense as a tornado hit near a tiny town in our county, about 13-14 miles away as the crow flies. There were 2 fatalities. We got Gma up and everybody sat in the...
