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.

    Yesterday at lunchtime I went to pick up meds for the cat. On my way through town, I noticed a guy on a motorcycle weaving through cars. I remember thinking he was being awfully careless. Shortly...

    That does make sense that pepcid would help with hives. I believe they give it along with benadryl in the ER for allergic reactions. I have found benadryl to be very helpful as long as it's OK for me...

    My dad had normal PSA levels when he was diagnosed at age 70 (a biopsy done because a urologist "felt something" on exam). He eventually had surgery and lived another 22 years. But my PCP at the time...

    I'm not sure where my bank card is. Hoping it is at home because Twin A was the last to use it and set it down there. I really need to get some cash for the next couple of days (just for the security...

    Stars, you've had the shingles vaccines, right? Just checking! I hope whatever it is clears up without more discomfort. We are anticipating "severe" weather.

    J22, I read The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store. I remember it being a somewhat odd story but worth reading. Our church book club selection was juvenile fiction (is that what they call it...

    Glad you're home safe, Tweety. Hope it's a good day of lots of walking, Joe. Thunderstorms started a few minutes ago. I spent the afternoon working at a food pantry at the United Methodist...

    Hubs often talks about how he loved to pick rhubarb from his grandparents' garden and eat it. He liked green apples, too. I have had strawberry-rhubarb pie that was good but not something I'd go out...

    Count me among the "too nice" people, too. I even fussed at Hubs the other day before he called the CPA and told him to "be nice." Not that I have not complained. I have. We probably shouldn't go into...

    I do think it would make a lot of sense to purchase another set or two of sheets and blankets so that (bedding) laundry doesn't have to be an every day thing. The guys are getting grilled pork...

    Joe, I hope the TEE shows everything cleared up with no need for follow-up. Tweety, safe and happy travels. Stars, we did the walk-in shower conversion and it does make bathing and cleaning...

    I will just have to make a pie myself. I like mine better anyway, even though I just use Jello lemon

    Ado Annie replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Daily Diary's Entries

    Happy Mothers' Day! Or I guess it's officially Mother's Day though that makes less sense to me. Had lunch with a friend yesterday but otherwise did very little. Today we went to church and sang....

    Yeah, our book selections vary all over the place. But it was a fun read. Somehow we're ahead of ourselves so I've already finished the next selection, The Circus

    well, how disappointing, Stars! Joe, the older I get, the more I appreciate ordinary days. J22, good luck with the PT. I've off and on had trouble with plantar fasciitis and it can be a...

    Oh, yes. I got a summons for jury duty in the mail today, too. I'm being told to appear June 2. I *was* thinking I'd try to go to granddaughter's graduation in Indiana on the 3rd. Hubs and I decided...

    Glad you didn't come back to chaos at work, Joe. That's the worst part of time off! Tweety, I sure hope you can get the refrigerator fixed Thursday. Stars, here's hoping Nannie sleeps...

    Monday May 5th 2025 Cinco de Mayo

    Ado Annie replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Daily Diary's Entries

    Didn't think about it being Cinco de Mayo or we might have done tacos. Instead, there's a chuck roast on the stove that I started in the crockpot last night then put in the refrigerator before going...

    It did storm a bit. Grandson shared a photo he found on Facebook of a baseball team in Oklahoma with a funnel cloud behind them. The caption explained that the storm was about 20 miles away from them...

    Tweety, Hooray for closing the door on the roof! Or something like that. I tried making some of those cheese crisps (dianah?). I used Swiss cheese and pepper jack. Yummy. And would give me a...

    I answered the WHAT'S FOR SUPPER? question with a really easy and not-particularly-healthy rendition of chicken enchiladas. The boys bought a huge package of tortillas and while I'm sure they would...

    Dianah, I'm going to miss Jo Ann's, too. Our Walmart has a limited supply of fabrics. I suppose Hobby Lobby does, if I could overcome my objections. Joe, is Willard the one about the

    Hello, friends. Hope all is well. Hubs, Twin B, and I have spent the last few days fighting a humdinger of a virus. Thankful that so far Gma has not been sick. Or Twin A. I am beginning to feel...

    Hope your "gypsies" have settled down, Tweety. Sorry your Monday was chaotic, Joe. Stars, cherry pound cake sounds good. We had a Sara Lee pound cake with sliced strawberries Sunday along...
