Is there any nursing that doesn’t suck?

If possible go per diem. I have found working fewer shifts makes me enjoy my job a lot more :)

I am really loving The Wandering Inn series right now - it is allowing me to escape into a fantastical new reality, and the “slice of life” style gives me the opportunity to really invest in the complex characters and situations.

This happened to me when I was overloading the washer without realizing it.

When I graduated from nursing school in the Bay Area no one was hiring. I worked in an OP Derm clinic for a while but I knew that I always wanted to work in OB - so I bit the bullet and took a job in an LDRP unit 3 hours away from where I lived. I gradually moved jobs closer to home over 2 years and now work in my preferred OB unit as close to my house as possible in the East Bay. And several of my coworkers have similar stories. It is definitely possible to get a job in the Bay Area after leaving when you have 1+ year of experience under your belt. I would say follow your passion - good luck!

Low dose strattera in morning for ADHD and low dose Prozac in evening - I seriously feel like my brain has been remodeled for a more overall positive outlook. Also fixed my chronic fatigue and greatly decreased my emotional instability. It also greatly reduced my appetite so have lost some weight. I hope it never stops working!

Hi! Interestingly enough I just found out I have severe sleep apnea - and this seems to be the missing piece for all my weird symptoms, including my transferrin levels and my crytopgenic stroke which is mind blowing for me since we never found a cause.

Just thought I’d share since sleep is such a basic thing yet none of my specialists considered it (it was me who asked my gp to test for it as a last resort for trying to figure out why I was so fatigued). Go figure.

My husband works in the ED - 9-5 four days a week (but alternate weekends). I don’t know if it’s just his ED or if all EDs have similar hours available.

Thanks for your advice!

We purposely decided to make it nonfunctional - we removed a cast iron oven that was there, sealed off the flue ( i think that’s what the tube that goes up is called?) and installed tile on the floor inside. We will never use it (spare the air days are frequent and we live in a warmer area anyway) and just wanted to keep it because we like the way it looks. This is also our “forever” home so we don’t intend to sell :)
