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.

    Stars, enjoy watching the birds. We used to do that and I'm out of the habit now. Thought about birdseed when I was buying kitty litter today. Hope you can sense the supportive thoughts I'm sending....

    Glad you're feeling a bit better, Tweety. I'm taking a short break from being neck-deep in data. It gets overwhelming at times. Yesterday we were visited by regulatory folks from the mothership...

    I noticed our dog Kelly having this symptom when we were afraid she had had a stroke and she was diagnosed with canine cognitive dysfunction so I've tended to associate it with neurological damage....

    After the storms went through yesterday morning the sky has been completely clear and sunny. Today it's cooler -- about 45 vs 55 yesterday. There is a very small potential that we, too, will have a...

    Stars, I've taken care of patients with alcohol dependence who were quite intelligent and successful (I know you know this). Tweety, that is frustrating to have to get another inspection so soon...

    I was guessing esophageal varices as well. Another indicator that drinking is really not good for Mr. Stars' health. Hope all went smoothly, Joe. Hey to all. We had slight fog delays with...

    dianah, Twin B *does* like his job, so far. They seem to think he's picking things up well, and I guess the person they hired for 11-7 on the weekends quit, so Twin B is now the weekend 11-7 guy *and*...

    Stars, can I assume that the huge power outage in NC is not where you are? I figure you would have mentioned it ? Gma is hacking, congested, but doesn't seem to have a fever. The lady who's...

    Great pictures, Joe and J22! I had to laugh about Tweety's nice knees. Hubs has nice legs/knees, too. I ended up working med/surg again Saturday (0700 -1430). Was OK except for the confused...

    Wow, Stars, your dh is sure tearing himself up. Unfortunately, he isn't the only hurt by it. I understand about not being too impressed with this particular plan. The trip to Indiana with Gma was...

    Good to hear from you, Tweety. Glad you're enjoying your trip. Sounds lovely. And lively, too, which is what spell-check wanted to put there. Did I tell y'all about the new cat? A black cat...

    It was nice to be back to work today. There are a couple of complainers but I don't have to interact with them. Now I'm going to bed, kind of avoiding the little family. I'll read for a bit. Got...
