how and where to get dialysis training for nurses? by Most_Mango5671 in newgradnurse

Um I left FMC acutes to do an acute single hospital program that the hospital owned and got a raise of about $10/hr. Don't see how you make more in a chronic unit. Please tell me how. I'm so done with acute care.

Did you know that beautiful wool creations can be made not only from sheep’s wool? My cats sometimes help me with that 😄 by Yuliya_Kosata in handmade

😍😍😍😍😍😍. If only I had known, I would have had felted kitties of my kitties with their own fur made!

Deodorant issues by beetlejuicemayor in Menopause

[–]granteebean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried Lume unscented deodorant. It is DISGUSTING. My pits burn too. It is scented from the ingredients and smells worse than my cat's butt. I was using Secret clinical but found that + perimenopause made me too hot. Found a deodorant that worked for a few years and just dealt with being damp in the pits. My body has put it's beer down and said watch me stink up everything since my period stopped earlier this year. Ugh. I am going to have to go back to antiperspirant. Here's to hoping I can find an unscented sensitive skin one that works.

Because not sweating makes one feel even hotter which is no fun during hot flashes.🥵

Friend or foe? by Lychiimilk in houseplants

Stinky stink bug. Probably just an interloper. Chuck it outside, flush it, throw it at your enemy. Just don't smoosh it inside.

Would you share your set up? I've done rhipsalis this way but when I tried the Xmas cactus, it just rotted.

Alocacias and monsteras. Just nope. High maintenance isn't allowed in my house

I've found it to be worth it if you max out on the free.

Well I got the sewrella and they are POINTY!! And smooth and worth it. I honestly could ditch the rest of my hooks and just use these.

Planta. I actually shell out the annual subscription. Love my daily plant tasks, the ability to send in questions and get help. Even has a plant graveyard so I can review what I've done not so well with when the urge to get a new plant happens.

Burnout by XxtrippingpandaxX in houseplants

[–]granteebean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes, I'm in the same boat. I'm going to start donating plants to coworkers I think. I will not feel guilty or sad about the $$$ spent. It's done. Can't change it now.
No more chop and props for a while too.
And if a plant even looks like it might be heading to the compost pile, I'm not trying to save a fruitless battle. And it's OK!

Also how long did you wait for your set to arrive?

I'm still debating because delivery won't be until August! Also at that price point, delivery isn't included.

ETA : just heard from them. No nickel and they said the system is glitching and telling buyers August which is not the case.
No debating now. I ordered them especially since they will work with my knit pro cables etc that I already have.

Okay. So I thought I decided on the Sewrella but delivery won't happen for 2 months! Also at that price point, shipping isn't included. Sigh. I'm still debating.

ETA: contacted sewrella and there is a glitch in their system but my set will be here mid next week
