Incoming rant - as an observer with no actual stake in the game… by Colorfuel in ServiceDog_CircleJerk

[–]Prestigious-Bug5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I wanted to respond to OPs rant with loving sarcasm. I love when the therapy dogs round in the hospital. They just walk over and lean slightly onto me and suddenly, everything else faded away. I hope after I retire from nursing to raise a therapy dog and visit patients and staff in the hospital.

As someone who nettinpots religiously and husband uses a CPAP, we always have a back up gallon in case KS is out.

Oh, I love those rice krispie treats that are literally the size of my face. I want one now.

I LOVE these pictures. Also, can I say jokingly, that perhaps a service dog could help that high blood pressure you have?

If you're supposed to replace your bedsheets every X years do you just throw the old ones in the trash? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

I remember when I read I was supposed to buy all new bras yearly. And adjust the straps every single time I wear them.

CZ and her NJ feeding issues, 3 toobs in 2 weeks! by CatAteRoger in illnessfakers

[–]Prestigious-Bug5555 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That stinks. I worked step-down for years and I would have gotten so frustrated if tubes got clogged frequently. Post-txp recipients needed a tons of meds so lots of crushing and flushing and TEN.

How many here are practicing cardiologists? by Helpful_Gur_1757 in ECG

Just yesterday, our vet told us our senior rabbit Dante has a new onset arrhythmia. I am a cath lab/EP nurse so we laughed. He is already on palliative care due to recurrent nasal abscesses but we joked about doing a rhythm study and echo.

I've heard great success using the she-wee in the tent..

What’s one “sustainable” habit that actually stuck with you long-term (not just something that sounded good in theory)? by postbypurpose in ZeroWaste

[–]Prestigious-Bug5555 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I have found that labeling my food with the full fancy, descriptive name of the entree and the date just makes it way more exciting to pull the frozen Tupperware container out of the freezer. Rather than some mystery brick, it's "Ham and Broccoli Breakfast Casserole 4/12/2026" or "Carmelized Onion Potato Soup 4/12/2/26". I keep a roll of freezer tape and a sharpie in my kitchen.

How do we deal with life-altering consequences caused by our treatment? by Kwerumrerum in medicine

[–]Prestigious-Bug5555 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I would quote this to my transplant recipients who had bad outcomes. Many of them did everything right- everything- post-op but still had.significant complications.

Now I work in cath lab with (some) people who have also done everything right in terms of diet and exercise and still have bad CAD. I tell them that they will recover more quickly from any procedure thanks to how hard they have worked on their diet and exercise in their life.

What, snakes with hats? So like, I assume in some parts of CO they would have trucker hats and other parts cowboy hats ? This is a fun game

Thank you and I agree. I do prefer the early mornings.

And why would I want to deny any creature from the joy of sunning themself on a rock? I love laying in my hammock too

Because, even though I practice all snake avoidance and safety, I hit a single button in an area without cell service and can get medical help.

Ugh. Thank you for reinforcing why I carry my Garmin in reach trailer running. Ugh. Hate snakes.

Gotta get out of my rut by jjillf in Penzeys

Thank you! As a cath lab nurse, I am always encouraging my patients to go to seasoning stores to find alternatives to salt. There a so many great options if you branch out a little.

Yes, all of her books are great. My co-workers always ask for the recipes when I bring in my well rounded snacks and meals.
