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.

    Thanks for the recipe, dianah. I will definitely give it a try after we get through all this Thanksgiving shenanigans. As much as I complain about Gma and as much as she seems totally unaware of...

    Glad you're home safe, Tweety. Joe, that sounds like a good day on balance. Too bad the bookstore is closing. Was it dianah making chicken tomatillo soup? Sounds GOOD. The lady who taught...

    The PCP is referring me to an ortho doc. But they are supposed to call me for an appointment and I'm feeling impatient. Tired of gimping around and the swelling is worse and making my knee stiff. I...

    Well, that's one way to get Nannie out of the house for a couple of hours, but the daycare would probably be less stressful. 😉 I went to the grocery store last night to pick up some things we...

    Hey, all. I did it again. I've become really lazy on weekends. I did lead the hymns at church Sunday. And grilled food for the family. Friday I attended an infection prevention conference...

    I had big plans last night of watching another episode or two of Call the Midwife. But I didn't. Went to choir practice, took a shower, and then... nada. Oh, I did fold a couple loads of laundry. I...

    Glad you had a good time with lots of music, dianah! I'm also glad that Momo is feeling at home and comfortable. Hope she enjoys her blankie. It sounds a lot like one my dad was given the...

    Like Stars, I'm not sure what to hope for with your job interview, Tweety. I know I'm not eager to jump into 6:1 ratios on the regular. But I understand your concerns about always being in charge,...

    Beautiful day here. Not that I did much with it. Went to church and later cleared out the fridge and went grocery shopping. Ho hum. My skin is itchy and I took a Claritin but can't tell that it...

    That appetizer sounds amazing, Joe. Tweety, Gma is on hospice. Based on what Hubs was telling me the other night, I wondered if we needed to call them but after checking on her I decided she was...

    Joe, it sounds like a solid plan in place for your dad's IV antibiotics. Hoping you and Tweety can have a break from some of the anxiety-inducing events. I guess we all could use that. The...

    I hope the TEE is all clear. I get aggravated with our staff for not taking blood culture contamination rates seriously and one reason is the cost to patients of false positives (not to say that's the...

    Good day, all! As today is my 62nd birthday, I'm doing a lot of nothing. Napping and reading. Stepdaughter called this morning. The boys are bringing home tacos and fajitas. The expected rain...

    Stars, that's a drama drama story from the CG! I voted. Took 1.5 hrs to get through the line but since I'm flying to Charleston on Tuesday I needed to get it done. Put gas in the car, picked up a...

    My sister had a cat that saw a veterinary ophthalmologist (San Antonio). Ended up being enucleated but adapted quite well. Pecan tassies would be one of the recipes my mother used to make at...

    I'm comfortable with my stylist and wouldn't want to try to find another one. I don't make many changes because I too don't want to have to fuss with my hair and I've found that a bob somewhere around...

    Stars, my parents used to have a "welcome mat" that said, "GO AWAY". They set it out when we went to visit once (to be funny, I think!) Here's hoping Nannie gets a beach vacation soon....
