Well shit i woke up coughing the family cold cough....hahahahaha

Anybody gotta fork

I am just getting over this cold and cough. It’s not fun.

 

[likes2watchU]

He gave me the cough

I'm sure it wasn't on purpose... but between the cough and the pancreatitis... I think you need a time out. Or a note for a time out:

To Whom It May Concern,
Please excuse Missk from all family health care duties other than her own until she has sufficiently recovered.
Sincerely,
The Mgmt*

ETA: *sounds more authoritative than "Likes"

Ugh

On the job site. Our units were basically ready. Had a good chat with one of the residents. Another resident fills me in on what her morning is going to be like. The work crew seemed to be in an adequate mood. Everyone has showed up and is working.


Site management would like to take a bow for forcing all of this with the inexorable power of his Will….

Sounds like a well thought out work plan to me

I clawed them open and then doused them with isopropyl.

Again, opening a blister leaves you vulnerable to infection. The skin covering the lesion acts as a bandage. Best to leave it alone and let it heal naturally.

Dealing with Docs…I get the gist of what our resident nurses frustrations were/are now. Phone calls and paperwork. Not much else to say ‘bout today…

The MZ will very recognizable to Lili and any others that have prowled the PNW…

Excellent shot!

 

[Lilianna23]

Yep. And it’s all typically nonsense

Yeah! Just bla, bla, bla! Men think us ladies talk too much but then they happily listen to the blathering from sports announcers.

 

[Lilianna23]

Okay, awake - kinda.


I had the PM out yesterday. He claimed that he was truly impressed by what he saw on Wat's job. It truly is in good shape and folks are less hoardy and actually are doing the prep stuff we ask them to do. I did have the wire butchers stick with us to get a building finished and wound up chatting with several of the residents. It was pleasant, and we also cleaned up some leavings while we were at it.


Had a great visit with the landlady when I got to the work rental. She's a card. Her cats were zooming. It was great.

Good job, Wat!

 

[Lilianna23]

Thank you. I’m hoping his reaction was more from the shock of the news. I trust he realizes that his mother would not want me to be alone.

I hope so, as well.

 

[Lilianna23]

On a good day

Hey, girl!

 

[Lilianna23]

Thanks for the morning coffee b2!

Hi Kathy!

Had a busy morning, so no real way to catch up. I trusted everyone is good. Keep on fighting the good fight.

I am off to corporate Zombieland this morning. I am running late, got a bit de laid.

Best excuse for being late ever!

Didnt we have a convo with boat using some boat grease or something to treat a cut?

It was for using epoxy resin to close an incision... I got scolded.

Today, a lot of the paperwork frustration can be laid at the feet of the insurance companies. It's frustrating trying to navigate both for patients and healthcare staff.

I didn't know you would be in my (relatively) neck of the woods! Good pic of the mountain.🏔 It wasn't out today; too cloudy.

Hey, girl!

Hello pretty lady

 

[Boat1]

He gave me the cough

Alicin-C, D-3 drops, and a good Elderberry Tincture... at least 3 times a day.

IMHO, Poison Ivy blisters are a different creature... they gotta GO!

Not this man... I pretty much gave up the sports gig when they wanted to charge me $30 PPV to watch a college football game, at a school that was already receiving my tax dollars.
I tend to vote with my wallet and middle finger.

Now I'm having flashbacks of ESPN's Sports Center. Dad and all 4 brothers would watch that show. Hours and hours of it.

Yep. Waiting on insurance for 2 orders. Both for replacement devices that have aged out.
Hoping one is a staffing issue. I've left 2 messages now on their "we'll call you back in 24 hours" line. I try to wait 7 days between calls to give them a chance. That order was issued 7 months ago. So I'm getting a bit cranky about it. The other is about 2 weeks old.

Lucky you... although it's not like you just skipped it. still..

Survival skill: tune stuff out!

When you grow up in a family of 10, you hone that skill to a razor-sharp edge.
Combine that with a good book and I can ignore a Hella lot... for hours and hours.

American for strongly emphasizing something. Not cussing out Aussie Skippy Kangaroo.

I have what most people would consider a "Platinum Plan" and I still elected to have my hernia surgery done at the "Surgery Center of Oklahoma"... it's an AMAZING, cash only surgery center.
It was the best medical experience I've had in decades.
