Happy Day!

To all the nurses out there, and I know there a few you out there in blogland – Happy National Nurses Day! Did your employer remember you today? Mine didn’t. Which is no big deal, really – in the past decade, I can’t remember an employer who actually did. One of my employers said they […]

Summerfest

Every year, I try to make it down to Summerfest, here in Milwaukee. I think last year was the first year in a long, long time that I didn’t actually make it down because I was moving into the new house that whole month. The fest is days filled with food, drink beer, people and

Skin Me!

I got the site skinning feature down. Hot damn. This solves my issue with constantly revolving templates on this blog. Of course, you know – more skins to be coming soon…none tonight, though. I’ve spent way too much time getting the scripty stuff worked out.

The On-Call Blues

It must be my Adult ADD – at least that’s what I’m blaming it on. Either that, or I’m just flat-out insane. Believe what you want — the rumors aren’t true! Today, I was (still am) on call for work. Being the only on-call nurse for Hospice when there are 80 patients that span 4

Orchids

Orchids are probably the single most beautiful flower I’ve ever witnessed. Something about them is so pure, fragile and delicate. They are also the most difficult thing to grow. I’m a glutton for punishment, apparently. Up until last year – I would never dream of bringing orchids into this house with the intention to grow
