I don't like to make fun of physical things. Especially if they're out of someone's control.
Because that makes all of us targets. So, I say certain things to give background, okay?

(Me: 👀🍿)

Me-Me: "I want to get up today, and I need my medicine, because I hurt."

Nurse: "I gave you Dilaudid at (within the hour)."

Me-Me: *whiny voice* "But, I have to ASK for my meds, or I don't get them."
(They're PRN, but she never misses them.)

Nurse: "You're not even DUE yet!"

#ThingsMyRoommateSays

This isn't a post about my roommate, this time. She's actually very boring. Whining, (mostly fake) crying, and complaining gets old really quickly. It's rare that she drops gems I can share with y'all.

Yesterday, our nurse basically STOMPED HER. (Long)

I see some of the strangest (and/or kinda awesome) things in here.

I just saw an elderly woman (and I don't use that as a pejorative, she's between 70-80 y/o) dancing AND SINGING ALONG WITH "You're In Love" by Ratt.

I keep trying to picture her 40 years ago, just rocking out...

Not many mirrors in nursing homes…

But some very interesting people and wonderful ones caring for us!

Funny, I feel that way after my PT, too.
I recently graduated up to doing a full lap off our rectangular halls. (I can only guesstimate the size, but, I think it's roughly 100 yards.)

We've both been good. Let's go get a low cal ice cream sammich, or something. +1 for Jolene. 😜

#nursinghomelife Today could be worse. I had enough Doordash $ to get coffee and an English muffin this morning and hot food last night. My sluggish PCN drainage is no longer sluggish. I'm down to two or three pain meds a day which is great since I can get six on bad days. I will have a couple of

Does anyone want to go to work for me today? It's not hard work - you sit at a desk, take phone calls from doctors & people who want their elderly parents admitted ASAP cause they can't care for them anymore & deal with stupid people who visit that refuse to follow rules. That's it.

Some days, it's really difficult not to make that anonymous call to the state. I know too much, and too many people want to FAFO.
