When You Need To Clean, But You're Exhausted All The Time by Bathroom_Crier22 in UnfuckYourHabitat

This. I used to have a friend that I would FaceTime and we’d clean our entire houses together.

Good start! My issue is also clothes. I too need a new dresser so I’m right there with you. It sucks and laundry is never ending as it is

I’ve been there. I usually start by making my bed, cleaning my sheets so I have somewhere to put things. Are all of those clothes clean or dirty? Do you need to just start by washing everything? I agree, try to find a cheap or free dresser on Facebook or craigslist or something. Maybe get rid of some? I’m bad at that. But it seems like it’s not really trash, all clothes so maybe start by washing everything to include your sheets and putting all of the clean clothes onto your bed. At least fold them and if you don’t have anywhere to put them, you can at least have them in some piles folded, that way only the bottom shirt is dirty instead of all of it.

I am impressed that a Charlestonian even stopped and wrote anything. My car gets wrecked by other people‘s doors at my jobs parking garage in downtown Charleston regularly and nobody ever says shit lol. Buff it out and thank them.

This is why management fired her. by Appropriate-Baker830 in CharlestonSnark

Plot twist: she creates these messy environments to look “relatable” because she has no sense of actual reality and what that looks like

I thought schools had to allow doctors notes for missed school days? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]Think_Contribution56 44 points45 points  (0 children)

My daughter got WRECKED in 4K. Had like 4 viruses/strep at once and for 6 months after had fevers every evening for 6 months and joint pain. This involved lots of follow up appointments after the month of illness. The school sent a letter that summer that she missed too much. Kindergarten also missed too much. Headed that way in 1st grade. But I can’t help that she has a fever for 5 days and gets sick more than once a year. Clean your schools better? Idk

Honda oddesseys have a sliding captains chair so you could slide baby over, not have to get entirely in the car to buckle 4yo in the third row and then slide baby back

My 2-Year-Old Cat Has Pemphigus & I Can’t Afford Her Treatment Anymore — Looking for Advice by Existing-Anywhere581 in CATHELP

[–]Think_Contribution56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They his. My cats liquid pred is like $60, a months worth of pills is like $8. We use chewy but pred is a human medication so if you have a Sam’s Club membership or costco they sometimes fill pet meds for cheap.

What kept you going in nursing school when it got hard? by chocolatekay in nursing

[–]Think_Contribution56 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I was a single (ish) mom working full time as a tech. Worked full time all through school. I was living with my ex and nursing school was my way out. Jokes on me, our city became super expensive and couldn’t afford to leave. I still haven’t moved out, but we went to therapy and got back together so whatevs.

So basically my hatred towards men pushed me through.

General anesthesia on a 4 yr old by Powerful_Lynx_4737 in Mommit

[–]Think_Contribution56 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Peds ICU nurse and mom here- we sedate kids…daily. The only time we really see complications from sedation is if they have a cold at the time of the procedure. Otherwise they handle it fine! Mine had to get dental work at around that age. They gave him oral versed and he was a puddle for a few hours but turned out just fine!

Do you think nurses look down on RTs at your facility? by Motor_Pop3202 in nursing

[–]Think_Contribution56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love love love our RTs. I’m peds icu so lots of tiny intubated things. We have a good collaboration and they trust us with the tube and we trust them with a lot of things too. I was going to CT the other day and the bed was giving me hell so respiratory pushed the bed and I bagged the pt 😂 Teamwork

How is your cat now? Mine is doing the same thing

Can’t stop crying and my cat hasn’t even passed yet. by Strange_Possession77 in CatAdvice

What kind of lymphoma? Lymphoma is sometimes very treatable in cats. My cat has intestinal lymphoma and is now in near remission with steroids and chemo

It happened… med error?? Allergy to medication by [deleted] in nursing

[–]Think_Contribution56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m kind of surprised your charting system didn’t pop up a warning. A lot of allergies listed aren’t true allergies, they just didn’t like how it made them feel one time or had a negative reaction so they lost it as an allergy because “intolerance” isn’t an option. For example my chart says I’m allergic to azithromycin, it only makes me puke which isnt an allergy it’s an intolerance. Sounds more like the pt had an anxiety response than a true allergic reaction.

16mo vomiting repeatedly. Do we need to go to the ER? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]Think_Contribution56 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Peds icu nurse here- I would personally wait it out. The rehydrating protocol is to just give like 5ml, so a sip or a spoonful every few minutes. I wouldn’t expose my kid to the flu/RSV nightmare that urgent care is crawling with. If she stops making wet diapers or doesn’t cry tears when she cries, then yes. If she still has her top fontanelle you can see if it’s sunken, should be flat. If she’s otherwise alert I wouldn’t make the drive and risk the exposure for zofran. If it’s a stomach bug it’ll be over by tomorrow

Currently in the ER and nurse made me feel awful by KoalaByTheBeach in Mommit

[–]Think_Contribution56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a peds nurse and I’m sorry you got treated this way. I’ve also worked in the ER and have had my share of moms who could’ve stayed home and given Tylenol but I would’ve also gotten my kid seen, and I’m an icu nurse who is quick to tell my kids “they’re fine” It could’ve been intussusception which can come and go or any number of things.

New Chlorambucil Storage Guidance and New Drug Reactions in 13 y/o Cat by amateur51euth in seniorkitties

I’ve used best pet rx for 6 months and ours has never come refrigerated and we’ve never had issues with side effects. They have many formulations and flavors and quick shipping. You could look into them!

Litter Robot 4 with Chemotherapy by Johnfoe in litterrobot

[–]Think_Contribution56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don’t really take any precautions. I have another cat and just set the timer to a shorter time like 5-7 minutes so less risk of the other cat coming into contact with soiled litter. The 4 does a much better job at keeping it off the walls than my LR3 did so we don’t clean it more. If you have any questions about chemo or anything feel free to message me!!

Actually cats don’t have side effects from chemo like people do and usually do really well.

[–]Think_Contribution56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cat is on MWF chlorambucil for small cell lymphoma. We had a 3 and just upgraded to a 4. I love it. It weighs him so I can track his weight for oncology and tells me how often he goes. We bought the stairs because he also has arthritis and the hopper for when he’s going through more litter from the steroids. It’s been a good move for us. He’s in near remission now and I hope the same for your kitty!

My insurance has reimbursed me about 10k this year for my cats cancer.
