  1. Maybe email her with directions so she can bring beef to you? And stay and prepare dish? Just kidding , of course. I suspect you wouldnt enjoy time with her. What a totally rude response. ( and i saved your salad recipe to make-- it sounds delish)
  2. I was at Braums the other day. ( ice cream/casual food/ market). This guy came in with a huge beautiful parrot on his shoulder. NOT potty trained. Ewww Service animal
  3. Thank you everyone. Melissa & Doug teaset and cupcakes win out! You guys are the best!
  4. Ok, in reality it's more for the mom that believes other child in family ( cousin) is favored one. Not true but that is what she believes... Would like something that would please her mom but not kill me in expense. Birthday girl is delightful active 2 yr old. Mom likes girly things for her. Likes to do little ones make up and nails for fun Any ideas appreciated
  5. Just because a hospital has jobs posted does not mean that the hospital is actively trying to fill those positions And I am appalled at the derogatory comments about the male attendant 's educational status
  6. When I was showing my Brownie uniform on ebay to my daughters--- and it was listed vintage! 😳😳😱
  7. [quote name="dirty ethel rackham" post="6871329" timestamp= Is there any way you can get some help? You need a mental and physical break. Perhaps when your dh is getting better, you can have a frank discussion with him about the food issue ... About what you will make and what you will not. And that complaining about food lovingly prepared is not OK. Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk This. Best advice ever.
  8. Plus-- I've treated people in hospital with GI bleeds from acidic irritation from too much/too long treatment
  9. When I was a child an Event happened with my step grandfather. My bio grandmother found out and blamed/shamed me for what happened. For years I felt unclean and believed that I had somehow asked for it. I think she felt she had to make sure I was so traumatized/ashamed/terrified that I wouldn't dare say anything...to anyone. It worked. (For a long time anyways)
  10. A PTA is a great job to look at. Because of the required doctorate now for entry-level PTs ( existing PTs are being grandfathered in), the growth potential in this field is huge. Average salary in texas is listed around 55k but I know many that make quite a bit more. And many universities have specialized programs for PTAs to continue for their PT degree i think this could be a great career shift if this is an area your husband is interested in A word of caution if you don't mind-- be Oh-so-careful!! Of for profit schools. I don't know if that's the direction you're looking but if so i'd advance with all due caution. I've seen many nursing and other health care workers get totally burned by these types of schools
  11. Hi Dallas RN here with dtr in OT school, which also calls for obs hours. She needs to call NOW to set this up-- it may be a bit difficult this late but it could still work Call hospital and rehab centers-- ask for therapy dept and explain she needs obs hours for ST. They get calls like this all the ytime; they'll know what she's talking about. Don't forget that many skilled nursing facilities also do rehab therapies. Good luck!
  12. My husband has done this as a retirement activity. We're hoping it might turn lucrative at some point. He has a MBA and had to take futher courses as well as an internship time period. Right now he mediates/arbitrates 2-4 cases a month at the courthouse as a volunteer. He is meeting people and hoping to transisiton to paid work soon.
  13. Revise wording to fit your personality but maybe these will help some Gosh-you know sometimes I think that too. But then when I look back I realize that in 11 hours I worked hard -and look at what I did accomplish. I did --x,y, z..... You know, coworker did leave me a list of things that didn't get done during the week. I'm happy to help. Why don't you and I go over the lists/task and you tell me what you see as the most important/needing to get done first? Always works like that , doesn't it. We never get everything done we want. Coworker told me the extra things she wants done. Why don't you tell me the things you want done outside of my normal activities? I feel *weird, sad, strange,___insert feeling word of choice, no angry or defensive words* to hear you say that. My job is important to me and I try to do my very best at it. I know, right? Isn't it funny how different it looks to people not doing it. I never knew coworker did so much until she told me. I expect she doesn't really know how much i do, either. **if you can add an example client can relate to it helps. exa--You know, it's like how people say "oh just do your exercises 3 times a day. They have no how much work it is and how painful it is for you** I am a RN with home health experience. The above may or may not help depending on your client's disabilities. Sounds like to me coworker has formed an- manipulative emotional bond between her and client that gives her some authority. And uses that bond to make sure that noone else gets close to client and threatens her authority. Unfortunately all too common in home care situations. Stay detached emotionally if possible. Stay objective when talking with client and coworker. Do not talk negative about coworker. Do not let them engage you in drama-it only escalates it. And get out as soon as possible. I highly doubt this situation is fixable because your coworker has unofficial authority that the client acknowledges by his actions, if not in words. Good luck
  14. Let me clarify that confusing sentence-- Mom feels dd's behavior is going to push Mom to the point where Mom will hurt dd
  15. A woman I work with is very frustrated with her 13 y/o dd. She seems to take all of her daughter's behavior very personally and feels the daughter is deliberately trying to hurt her. Today she was telling me about the latest incident and she was shaking. Literally crying and shaking, saying that dd is going to make her(mom) hurt her(dd) if dd doesn't stop her behaviors. She then would calm down but still be very angry sounding and say she was going to send dd to a girls school. I don't believe there's any abuse--yet. I also don't think a 13 y/o is going to be able to change her behavior as quickly-if at all. So I know tension is going to rise. I've talked with her. Fortunately, she and I have a fairly good relationship and she is willing to take guidance from me. Anybody have suggestions? Books? (She is a Christian so religious is ok) Nan
  16. my sister--on a lean budget--is giving out movie baskets to her extended family. She would like to have diff kinds of popcorn to put in basket? Any ideas? Also anybody got ideas about places to find good movies inexpensively
  17. We have 3--yes, 3. Don't get me started on that story. Lovely personalities--very gentle with kids.
  18. A look into some of their eyes spoke volumes. Very hard times, indeed
  19. Thanks everyone I am going to register at that site, RC, and will ask for advice.
  20. If the shelter is a no-kill shelter, you shouldn't feel bad. It is a shelter that performs euthanasia , and their "keep" timeis very short because they are so very full. The humane society has no room at all. And a waiting list. Unless he keeps the aggressive behavior up, we will probably keep him until we find a home for him.
