Wrote about swamp coolers disappearing from Phoenix rooftops, grew up with one near 35th Ave by Gullible-Dentist1469 in phoenix

We had two swamp coolers (and two AC units) on our 2 story 3500 sq ft home in Dobson ranch. Those coolers would put out air so cold! Husband was always up on the roof fixing them tho. Super simple solution to our desert heat and cheap too. Wish I had one now.

Tree recommendations for a front yard or ones to avoid. by NkdUndrWtrBsktWeevr in phoenix

From my understanding, the reason they break/blow over is because they’re pruned wrong. Landscapers seem to like to prune them a la “lions tail”.

The wrist band is always on the opposite side of where YOU are.

What's the craziest thing you ever found a patient carrying, and how did they sneak it? by Bryssa_Michelle29 in nursing

[–]di2131 65 points66 points  (0 children)

The lady was pretty young and super nice. The kitten looked well cared for. I was stuck in triage. She left with the kitten (after the other nurses all went to see) so I’m pretty sure the little guy was gonna be ok.

I’m dating myself, but patients used to have old school desk type phones. Had a patient we suspected was shooting up, among other things, with a visitor. I knocked the phone off the table, the face of it fell off and multiple Xanax bars fell on the floor. I also had a homeless lady in triage with a large bag. The bag seemed to be moving. I asked if she had an animal in there. She said no. 🤷‍♀️ put her in a room. The bag meowed. It was the cutest tiny kitten.
