My Nerves are Just A-Quiverin'

I sat down to make a phone call, potentially THE phone call of the day. And what, you may ask, is this phone call? Simply this: calling a family practice office and asking to speak with the office manager. Yes, it's true, I have decided to look for a different job. It has become more apparent to me...

What? This Simply Cannot Be True!

I'm sitting here in front of the computer just a shiverin' away, wondering why the heck I'm so danged cold. Sure it's snowing out, and of course my thermostat is set at 66, but as usual I have my cozy fleece on and I really should not be shivering like this. Well, wouldn't you know but I have a temp...

I Hear Wedding Bells Ringing . . . .

Yesterday. Such a very exciting day for two people in the throes of love.... I went to see Dale (not his real name) since he was once again complaining of stomach problems. I'm told he threw up again, the first time since he had been hospitalized for nausea, vomiting and dehydration. I looked in his... Sign in to see full entry.

Two Little Lovers, Sitting In A Tree . . . .

Some of you may remember a blog I wrote several months ago about two of my long term care residents. These two love birds requested a private room together for a few hours so they could do (ahem!) whatever it was they had on their minds to do. Both were pretty much wheel chair bound, both were...

Needing To Vent My Spleen Regarding SOME Bloggers . . . .

Well, I'm sure SOME of these people I'm thinking of MAY blog but I don't know that for a fact. This afternoon, I'm off to spend some time with a few former classmates. I'm looking forward to this bit of collaboration and cameraderie so that I can vent my spleen regarding work, issues regarding NPs... Sign in to see full entry.

Taps and Kingmi, you asked for it . . .

You got it! JanesO here in full antiqued black and white, desperately attempting to act my age today, in spite of what the cashier said. Hope you all had a great day. It's blasted cold out, I am so ready for spring, the auld Mutt wanted to spend the entire day outside, little brat. But otherwise, NO... Sign in to see full entry.

Pushing 40 But Still Carded -- Made MY Day!

After cross country skiing (and nearly freezing my fingers off) with the darling auld mutt, I went to the local monster huge grocery store to stock up on food. Thinking I would be out of wine soon, I picked up a bottle of red something or other (I drink about one glass 3-4 times a month and am so... Sign in to see full entry.

I’m Already #3, With Only 10 Clicks To My Name!

In the "Business and Investing" section, I’m Already #3, With Only 10 Clicks To My Name! (And yesterday I was actually #2, but how things change in a day.) I was amazed to see when I clicked on sort by “popularity” that my new little blog on investing is already #2. And that with only 10 clicks!!... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm SOOOO Predictable . . . .

Every day while walking the mutt I almost always turn left on 25th St and then left again on Washington St. On this very predictable route of mine, I always pass this particular house. And because I'm nosey and simply cannot help myself, I turn my head to the left and glance in the open (as in no... Sign in to see full entry.

The REAL Cause of Osteoporosis and Grandma's Dowager Hump!

All along you've been thinking that osteoporosis is caused by not getting enough Calcium in your diet, or lack of weight bearing exercise, or being a smoker, or being Caucasian, or slim or being told "it's in the genes." Right? That's what your primary care provider has told you all along, isn't it?... Sign in to see full entry.
