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.

    Stepson was arrested today, hanging around the high school and jabbering and apparently had a costume sword or something. I wish I believed this would get him into a hospital. I've lost trust in...

    Glad you enjoyed the book club meeting, Joe. Stars, I'm not sure I've ever had anything from Whataburger. There isn't one in town, and we didn't have them in Indiana (at least where I was). My...

    Decent day. I attended the new employee orientation because we're all being required to do it with a new building and therefore new safety info, etc. Made some progress with the Access database I'm...

    Easter Sunday March 9 2023

    Mmmm.... Mimosas. LOL There was a carry-in brunch at church today during the usual Sunday School hour but as I am a slug-a-bed I didn't get there until time to practice with the choir. But then...

    Easter Sunday March 9 2023

    We might get rain today but can't complain since we need it. Went to the Easter service. Twin A is working and Twin B is between night shifts so I made a simple Easter dinner of a seasoned pork loin,...

    Went to the Good Friday service and sang with the choir. Hubs stayed home with his mother since Twin B picked up a 3-11 shift today and Twin A had (gasp!) social plans! Twin B is talking about...

    Stars, good to take care of yourself. Tweety, what a day. When is your last of the three? I never liked doing 3 12s in a row. Much less 4. J22 I hope your next lesson is more interesting....

    Hoping for a better day, Stars. Tonight I made chicken parmesan. I goofed up my Walmart pick-up order the other day and got seconds (and thirds?) of some items including 2 large packages of...

    Last night I used an emeals recipe for chicken that used curry powder and coconut milk, ginger, and garlic. I left onion out for Hubs' benefit but he didn't eat any anyway. Twin A and Gma and I...

    Hubs is in a bad mood, I guess. Just yelled at me and the boys "Would you guys please clean up after yourselves?" I guess because there's a tortilla chip bag on the table while he fixes cheeseburgers...

    Stormy out. I kind of like it as long as it isn't dangerous. Definitely feeling better. The abx are having the usual side effects but I can deal with that for a few days. Hubs went to church to sing...

    I'm an idiot and not much of an infection preventionist. Finally took myself to the brand-new urgent care after work last night and my strep screen was positive. No pharmacies open after 7 pm in our...

    Took a PTO day today because I wanted to go to the zoo before the free pass for healthcare workers ends for the year. The boys and I went and had a good time. But this cold or whatever it is is...

    J22, that sounds hopeful regarding the ablation. Fingers crossed! Joe, the occasional slow day is indeed relaxing. Still catching up (emails are the

    Back to the office today. It is just plain COLD in my office, though it got up to 61-62 today outside. Way too many emails to try to sort through. Nursing resignations in the past 2 weeks: about 5. ?...

    Somewhere in the middle of New Mexico ... It has been a great trip despite breaking the rear window of the soft top. If we had been trying to see the Grand Canyon with snow, we probably...

    Sorry about the spousal falls, Stars. Tweety, I'm glad the hernia was reducible and hope it can be managed without surgery. And oh the poor kitties. We used to go to trivia night at a...

    Hello from rainy Phoenix! I flew in Monday and was unable to connect to hotel WiFi until today. It just wouldn't work as intended until I accidentally did something that opened a browser window that...

    Joe, that sounds like a good group to participate with. Y'all with your full Saturdays make me look like a sloth. I was really tired Friday night. I'm blaming the blood donation Thursday plus not...

    Head-to-toe hives sounds most unpleasant. I get hives sometimes. The first notable time was after taking penicillin when I was a kid. Sometime when I exercise, especially in cool air like a walk on a...

    Joe, that's a nice way to be recognized. I might suggest it to our admin since they're starting a new recognition program. Skip the t-shirt, give me time off! ? Tweety, glad the olive oil turned...
