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.

    Conversation between Hubs and Gma: I'll be dead. What? Why do you say that? They're trying to get rid of me. Who is? Those...foreigners. Oh. Well, I won't let them in...

    Stars, glad your mood is better. That's half the battle. And be desultory as much as you need to be. Your patience is admirable. I laughed about Nannie asking where she could sit. Gma does that all...

    Stars, glad your dh is getting some treatment. I wonder if the pleural fluid and resulting displacement could irritate the SA node and surrounding tissue enough to cause the A-fib? Made it to...

    Everybody must be having a big Friday? Joe, hope you got to have dinner with J. The boys made breakfast for dinner and then wanted to make a chocolate pie so that's underway. Soon I'll...

    Stars, you need a break. Hoping your gallbladder doesn't give you a hard time. Twin B called me yesterday (while I was at the emergency preparedness training) to say he was in a lot of pain just...

    Joe, we had a pretty good group at choir practice last night. 4 basses, 2 tenors, 2 altos (the pastor and me), and 1 soprano who is on pitch well enough but sings so quietly I can never hear her....

    Joe, are there poets you especially like? I find that some poetry is magnificent but some is just too opaque for me. Tweety, 3000 Years of Longing sounds like an intriguing story, anyway. Let us...

    Do y'all have suggestions for keeping track of CEUs? I get them from random sources, it seems. Mostly from CMS, though, and they should have records that are easily accessible. J22, we did not...

    Glad to see you, Joe. Missed you yesterday. J22, I get some of my best sleep during movies. Just ask my guys ? I saw my gearfit watch the other day and I'd like to see if it will work for me....

    Apple cider slushy sounds good. Hubs is mowing now. The down side of actually having some rain is that the grass grows. I haven't done much. A little laundry. Grilled some ribs for dinner. Wiped down...

    Sitting here watching the Oklahoma football game though Hubs keeps switching away to TCM. Hubs got mad this morning and vacuumed. I should rile him up more often.

    Joe, I've been intrigued by some of the comforters and such made with really large needles/yarn. I'm sure that's not quite what you have in mind, but that's what I thought of. J22, glad you got...

    Got my own struggles with motivation! Gma has gone to bed. Twin A worked an evening event at the zoo and isn't home yet. Stepson sent a bunch of texts to Hubs earlier today and managed to be...

    Happy anniversary, dianah! Hubs and I went to choir practice. My workday was spent on zoom calls and meetings that mostly felt like a waste of time. Last night we celebrated Gma's 92nd bday. Also...

    He's probably going to be pretty sore. Ouch! Funny that I mentioned our bugless Summer. Tonight it looks as if the June bugs hatched and swarmed! Sam the cat is intrigued and a little bit freaked...

    We had a big thunderstorm late yesterday afternoon. A real gully-washer? Power was out at the hospital again although the generator worked. But the a/c outage caused it be to be really warm and humid...

    Joe, hope you're having a good day. And Tweety, hope you're enjoying your days off! Stars, anyone who walked in here right now would think our vacuum cleaner broke down. J22, have fun seeing...

    Joe, was it you talking about scheduling a colonoscopy? Well, I just got reminded about a story from our risk management conference. One hospital is looking to update their preop instructions to be...

    Joe, I hope you have a nice, relaxing weekend. J22, the fitness center and then reading by the pool sound wonderful. Enjoy! Last night, Hubs suggested we take a drive. Apparently, it's the...

    Time will tell. He is a moody man and we can't blame substances except for his refusal to take antidepressants. But for now we'll assume he's going to commit to it, for a while at least. The guys in...

    From what I hear from my kids, who follow this more closely than I, the company donates to political action committees and the like that have anti-LGBTQ+ policies and goals. So their "welcome" rings a...

    Good morning, Joe. Glad the cat's OK. Hoping your dad gets better with no complications. The arboretum sounds like a nice day. Hubs did go to choir practice with me. It is good for him to get out...

    dianah, I agree that it's frustrating to have your card declined as your first clue that they're concerned about fraud, even if it's easy to fix with a phone call. Ugh. The convertible (it's a...

    Joe, I hope the cat's OK and the vet not too $$. Both my cats are due for some checkup/services and I've been putting it off. Tweety, I have almost the opposite paranoia, as if I had better...

    Tweety, you've reminded me that there are compensations for living in Oklahoma. Car insurance is, relatively, cheap. Insurance in general, though, is a large part of our monthly expenses. Is "Nope"...
