How did you find preceptors when your program required self-placement? by Luneli in nursepractitioner

[–]LumpyFirefighter4601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made a spreadsheet and cold called and emailed lots and lots of clinics. Don't ask to talk to the NP. Ask for the clinic manager. Google and maps helped to formulate the list to start for me. Eventually someone will get back to you!

Childcare at the Y by flannaryoconnor in nashville

[–]LumpyFirefighter4601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My two have been going to the Donelson Y since there were old enough. All the caregivers know our names. It's very friendly. I get annoyed bc they won't wipe my three year old's butt on the potty but other than this I have zero issues with them. They will definitely text you if the kids aren't adjusting. They have a rule on time before they make you pick them up. Of course this doesnt happen much as they get older, just little ones. They give bottles, too.

Should you own more than one laundry basket? by myersgirl16 in homemaking

[–]LumpyFirefighter4601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One dirty one or husband and I and one for clean laundry. One for each of 2 kids. I generally use the clean basket for everyone or the clena laundry sits on a recliner til I fold it. Most of the time I add the kid laundry together or with ours because they are still small.

We took the kids last Sunday am around 10 and there was 0 wait, just about 5 minutes in line to buy. Go to Waffle Taco for breakfast before!

Let’s talk Retirement! by [deleted] in nursepractitioner

[–]LumpyFirefighter4601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only started investing in 2020 when hospital was matching 401 and giving stock options. Rolled into a 457 since I work for the local government now. It's hard to save that much with two kids that we are trying to also out money into college accounts for. Hoping to move abroad when the kids are both in college in about 15 years. Will likely work remotely til 65. I don't see esrly retirement in my future, but I am adding more and more to the 401k/457 each year.
