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.

    Housework day. Not that I did very much but got some laundry done, the kitchen cleaned up, and some trash gathered from the bedroom and taken to the trash bin. We don't have curbside recycling, wish...

    I'm talking about the weather again because, despite the forecast, the high today will only be about 32 (and it's overcast and gloomy). Rain over the weekend, and a 70 degree day on Monday. If the...

    Went for the annual mammogram today. And that's about as exciting as it gets. At the office we are having a "biggest loser" challenge for the next few weeks. The timing coincides well with my renewed...
  4. J22, 6 days! 5 now! That's exciting and something to look forward to. Stars, I'm told there are vultures that nest near an intersection in town but I haven't seen them. I've never taken Lasix,...

    I've been listening to the podcast "Dr. Death" per recommendation of a couple of people from my book club. They told me to listen to the ones about the neurosurgeon. Shocking stuff

    Hubs and I really enjoyed watching Northern Exposure ? -- I hate to think how long ago that was. dianah, I hope your RV is ready to go for you. That was a long day with the memorial service, but...

    Hey, all... I found a plant for the office. The church service was good, although our pastor is away to officiate her son's wedding. Made a shepherd's pie that the family enjoyed. Back...

    Dull Saturday. Grocery trips both last night and tonight. I've decided I like the idea of pampering myself with a hot bath (thanks, Joe) and bought some smell-good stuff for that purpose. Think I'd...

    Tuesday February 14 2023 Valentine's Day

    I feel like I should point out that the sun is in the picture, above and to the right of the tallest tree, and there were no clouds, just "dust in the wind" (now I have that Kansas song stuck in my...

    Stepson is home (his home). He did let that guy borrow his car. I don't know more than that. It is so windy and dusty that this is what I saw when I left the hospital. The sky overhead was clear...

    We typically ignore Valentine's Day although I might get something for the boys and for the grandkids. Didn't this year because we're pretty much broke. I do have some stickers I've saved up for the...

    Hope you have a good day, Joe, and got some rest. Hope you can get some laundry done tonight, Tweety ? At times when I've had breakdowns of the laundry machines I have just given up and taken a...

    We went to sailing school again today. It was good. Gma is muttering. "They don't care. They're a bunch of s*******s." (her favorite word). And "He's going to kill me. He's going to make sure...

    Sorry. Couldn't resist. Just after reading J22's comment about the Krusteaz brand, I saw this on my facebook feed.

    Stars, let's brainstorm how to room Gma and Nannie together. It would be a hoot. Maybe Nannie could steal Hubs from Gma instead of me doing it all the time. ? Today was eventful. I got a call...

    Yep, Joe, that's disappointing about the counselor. Tweety, a day at the beach sounds great. You can watch the movie any time. There was ice falling from the sky when I left work today....

    Guess who didn't check the weather forecast? After yesterday's beautiful day I went out without a coat and it was 45 degrees and "fixin' to" rain. Now there's "heavy rain" and the temp is dropping...

    Another pretty day here, high of about 68. I bought tickets so the boys and I can see Jesus Christ Superstar in OKC. It is the 50-year anniversary tour. Then I noticed they'll be doing Hamilton later...

    Dull day here but at least a pleasant 60 degrees or so. Made "fancy" grilled cheese sandwiches from e-meals. They were supposed to have Everything Bagel seasoning but either I forgot to actually buy...

    J22, that makes me think of my anatomy class. I'm no good at drawing but I would draw the bones to help me learn the parts and insertion points and all

    Oh, and I think I live too close to the hospital. The way sound travels I can hear when there is a helicopter near/low and of course suspect it's at the hospital. I know they don't need me but somehow...
