8:11 am
rbud
yuck! but thanks! (had the fu4/10, which was kinda funny, too)
8:12 am
Aloyisius
I agree, rbud.. that one means "to make stuffy and odorous".. hah.. thinking of a sentence
8:14 am
Aloyisius
The dirty sock fu4.10 up the laundry room if it sits there too long?
8:15 am

and back again... what's with all those people who need me as soon as I sit down to babble??
8:15 am

8:16 am
Mr Bob
Good morning all
8:16 am
rbud
good use of fu4, Aloy, lol!
8:16 am
MollyL
fu4/10 is a short form of fu3ly : )

And I was at my parents' house yesterday too, after I took my mother to lunch. I did some clean-up of the garage (My father SAVED everything) and some yardwork. A sister + bro helped.

Aloyisius
oh.. ty rbud.. I swear I tried that

8:40 am

Today I will buy an electric lawn mower for myself. I am not going to pay a kid to do it anymore. But my Dad would have helped me choose a mower.
8:40 am
bichon
I always miss my Dad's advice
8:40 am
sprite
missing him in everything, right Scrabs? :(
8:41 am
Scrabbler
Oh, yes. Sports, house, car....he knew everything.

8:43 am

I'm sure he was proud that you became a doctor
8:43 am

And he fixed everything. He was a mechanical engineer.
8:43 am
jmcnrick
sounds like a great guy
8:43 am
bichon
My Dad fixed lots of things for me
8:43 am
Scrabbler
jm, my choices are with cord or cordless. Cordless mowers get charged and are more expensive.
8:43 am
sprite
hey jmc :)
8:44 am
bichon
I have a battery edger. Don't miss that cord
8:44 am
jmcnrick
yes but you never mow over a cord with a cordless mower . . . but the problem is they hold about an hour's worth of charge so it depends on the size of your yoard
8:45 am
jmcnrick
i have a cordless/battery mower
8:45 am
bichon
Mine recharges pretty fast. So I just take a break in the middle while it's recharging
8:45 am
Scrabbler
Do you have to buy a new battery in the future?
8:46 am
MollyL
Bich has the right idea. Perfect excuse to sit down and have a cool drink.

8:46 am

8:47 am
Scrabbler
jm, how much is a new battery?
8:47 am
Aloyisius
it ends with two vowels and starts with almost all of a safe place, sprite
8:47 am
Scrabbler
And how often do you need a new battery?
8:47 am
Aloyisius
Like a wildlife re***e
8:48 am
jmcnrick
hmmm i guess about every 3 years or so
8:48 am
welki
(if the yard is larger, might be worth it to buy an extra battery - to have one charging while you use the other)
8:48 am
Aloyisius
oops, have 13 left and have to scoot.. bbl to finish - bye all!
8:48 am
rbud
it's like someone who is escaping from somewhere, but ends like a VW, Karmann Gh**
8:48 am

that would be great welki but the battery is not that removable

crossy, years ago, i bought a 65 chevelle from an older lady who REALLY only used it for driving to church - still had the plastic covers on the horsehair seats - the old 483 engine - was a dreamboat!
9:08 am
redturtlehead
Wow welki, thats really neat.
9:09 am
MollyL
Me too Red. I'm not a big fan of driving.
9:09 am

9:09 am
rbud
Mom considers the 8 miles out to our house a big road trip, lol!
9:09 am

yep - new o-rings too - but was worth it to drive it (and be seen driving it)

ok, if congruent is a word, why no gruent.
9:10 am

I would have taken a picture Welki. I love old cars.

So I had to enforce my first policy on a friend yesterday. I now understand why they say its lonely at the top- and I am no where near the top...
9:11 am
crosshair
lol@ 8 mile rbud..i once was helping out a friend and babysitting his station for him for 2 months..put 300 miles a day on the car for the entire 2 months.was glad when that was done
9:12 am
welki
ohhhhhh .. nah, i don't like being photographed
9:12 am
sprite
for the di8 that was related to one of the ur words, there is also one with another vowel as 3rd letter.
9:12 am
welki
your first policy, red?
9:12 am
redturtlehead
Oh Welki, everyone says that!
9:12 am
Scrabbler
Red, if it involves preventing HAI then it is important
9:12 am
sprite
wow red. How did it go?
9:12 am
redturtlehead
I got a job promotion to doing the Infection prevention at the hospital.
9:13 am
welki
ohhh, work related germ prevention. i get it
9:14 am
welki
policy enforcement of any kind on friends, relatives or co-workers is the pits
9:14 am
MollyL
Nice cars Welki. I saw a '69 Malibu the other day in choice condition. Now that's a car.
9:14 am
redturtlehead
The person got very irritated, but it's a policy that is mandated by OSHA. I didn't make it up...and its policy at every hospital. So it was awkward though...I felt like a bit of a hypocrite, because I have broken this policy about 95% of the time as a staff RN...
9:14 am
redturtlehead
And deep down I don't think it prevents anything. But OSHA...well, I can not supercede them.
9:14 am
welki
maybe you felt uncomfortable, but it's YOUR heinie in court if something goes sideways
9:14 am
sprite
yeah well, still it needs to be upheld. no ne4 to blame the messenger.
9:15 am
redturtlehead
Scrabbs, are you serving on the infection prevent committee.
9:15 am
Scrabbler
Which rule, red?
9:15 am
Scrabbler
Yes, red, I just started last week.
9:15 am
redturtlehead
No food or drink in patient care areas for the staff...
9:15 am
crosshair
middle management is a tough go red,those you used to work with,you now give orders to,if something goes wrong the big boss blames you for not managing the employees correctly you get crap for both ends from the top down,and from the bottom up
9:15 am
redturtlehead
So cool Scrabbler.
9:16 am
welki
<-- agrees with crossy
9:16 am
sprite
very true, crossy
9:16 am
redturtlehead
But I get such a chance to keep so many people safe...
9:16 am
Scrabbler
Red, you can always acknowledge that you used to break that rule too, but that you understand that enforcement is necessary.
9:16 am
welki
(crossy? is it as miserable in the oil pit for the tech as i think it is during wet/cold weather? still thinking about that oil change)
9:16 am
Scrabbler
Do you have a newborn nursery or NICU, red?
9:17 am
redturtlehead
I do tell people that I was the number one violator of the policy upfront. I tell them that I understand it is a challenge, and then I tell them that it is still the policy.
9:17 am
sprite
it may go right most of the time, but the one time it goes wrong, it goes terribly wrong. So it is worth taking care.
9:17 am
redturtlehead
Yes, we have a regular newborn nursery. No NICU.
9:17 am
rbud
haha, '60's dance, fr4/10, and pl - whee! *puts on white gogo boots*

9:18 am
redturtlehead

Welki, the thing is I worked there, EVERYONE knows that they have never seen me without a cup of coffee, so i can't hide it anyway.

I hate seeing Staph outbreaks in NBNs--skin infections.
9:19 am
sprite
you know better now, red :D
9:19 am
redturtlehead
For some reason our nursery and L and D is the one area that is doing well. I have so far left them alone. We do low risk delivery only.
9:20 am
welki
i'm going to ask my daughter how well-educated she's been in infection control policies - she's a new nurse working in the step-down unit
9:20 am
crosshair
welki,re: oil changes,most are inside now,and one oil change is much like another,regardless of weather
9:20 am
redturtlehead
The policy has traditionally not been enforced, so its a tough go we are slowly introducing people to the policy again...like all change its hard.
9:21 am
Scrabbler
What bugs me is when gloved staff (even in food prep places) rub their head or face then touch the person/product. If we could actually see germs we would be so paranoid.
9:21 am
redturtlehead
I'd be curious to know how she feels Welki! Step down is a great place to work....very busy though.
9:21 am
welki
i know that, when she was a paramedic, she was very well-versed in safety procedures
9:22 am
redturtlehead
Generally staff are well educated, they just tend to get tied up with other things or think their hands are clean...when they are just germ farms....we would be scrubbing in bleach if we could see germs!!!
9:22 am
sprite
fireflies. Must love and leave you. *hugs*
9:22 am
Scrabbler
Are there any demonstrations, e.g. with a colored product, to show the spread of germs?
9:22 am
Scrabbler
Yay Sprite. Bye.
9:22 am
crosshair
so,are they going to phase out those nurse food stations you see on every floor of the hospital do you think,they will isolate employee lunch areas and fridges for food and strictly make all patient food come from the main kitchen?
9:23 am
redturtlehead
We do glitter bug, a cream that they apply and then wash. I found out though it sticks really well, so now I have the staff put it on and I come back 6 hours later, and they see where the flourescense is like in crevices or their rings.
9:23 am
Scrabbler
de5 always makes me laugh--silly word. I guess it means to deflate.
9:23 am
rbud
woohoo, sprite! bye!
9:24 am
Scrabbler
Cool, Red. I always wished there was a way to show staff how germs travel via the staff.
9:24 am
redturtlehead
Cross- we do not have nurse food stations. All nurse food is stored in the staff fridge in their breakroom. Employees are to eat in the break room or the cafeteria. But we have no restrictions on family coming.
9:24 am
rbud
is that "ex" good for anything? nothing I see
9:25 am
crosshair
in toronto general hospital they are phasing out all those magazines and books in all the waiting rooms,they say they are handled by too many people
9:25 am
redturtlehead
Scrabbler a bottle of the lotion is only 14.95. there is also a glitterbug powder. It is also a great way to check on how thorough housekeeping is. I apply the powder to parts of the room, and recheck after they clean.
9:25 am
Scrabbler
We have books only in our waiting room, no toys.
9:25 am

our nurses/doctors seem to eat everywhere,the nurses station,the food station on each florr..guess changes are in the sind

9:27 am

hubby, a ww1 navy vet, puts the flag out every day.. also a navy flag... both flap in the breeze and it pleases him so... we are delighted that it also pleases the grandson of our next door neighbor. he insistes that his nana or grampa bring him over so that he can touch our flags andf watch them ripple in the breeze and has done so for the4 past year ever since he was 18 months old.. our own great grandson who is now almost 4 has the same reaction and that is the first thing he checks out on his visits.

6:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Ha!- I made the mistake of recycling a pile of papers that were in the car and they were all my daughter's notes for the year
6:02 pm
MollyL
I held it for ransom until people started acting like they had a stake in keeping our home neat.
6:02 pm

But it FELT good!
6:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Fortunately the recycling was still in the bucket
6:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Boy, did I pay for that!
6:03 pm
MollyL
It worked for me. Same thing with dirty clothes all over the bedroom floor. They get twitchy when they have nothing to wear.
6:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I don't have the power to do that in my household. They get outraged if I throw away something that was left on the counter
6:04 pm
Kaplan the Magne
And I gave up on the laundry thing because both my husband and daughter let it pile up
6:04 pm

I must be off -- back for my last 15 later

Because my husband really never puts anything away. If he goes on a trip, the suitcase stays on the floor in the upstairs bathroom for weeks after he gets back.
6:06 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I ceded control a long time ago, Miss Devil.
6:07 pm
Kaplan the Magne
The funny thing is my oldest daughter is on her own, and very careful about neatness in her apartment. My youngestwill probably do the same. But my husband has not set a good example, and I am not the paragon of neatness either.
6:08 pm
EspritdJean
I don't unpack until there's something in there that I need :-)
6:08 pm
Kaplan the Magne
then you can't move in with me, though you would probably do OK with my husband

I refuse to live with messy people. It doesn't take that much effort to pick up after one's self.

Now I will be an ai5/12 and ai 4/5 you with a story for my de 4/5 Babble friends to re 4/5. My Mom was an en 7/32 & en 7/36 me to be a teacher. When she suggested it, I did not ar5/16 with my Mom. I thought it was a gu4/8 id4/5. My Mom always has good id 5/12. Plus I always wanted to be a teacher ever since I was te4/4ager. However, I was nervous that I wouldn't be a good teacher. My mom sa 4/5, "do not fr 4/7 over that because you'll be great.". Now I am an ESL teacher and I teach all different gr5/16 levels. I like my third gr 6/27s the best. I am af6/30 that hubby is a ne6/21 and ne 4/5s the computer. How da /5 he take it away from me! If I do not give it to him, I will have to deal with his tir5/12.I hope I have steered you in the right di6/24ion with my story. I did not ed 4/5 my story so there may be some mistakes. I am going get off my re 4/4 and go be a ra 6/21 and ra 4/5 the refridgerator for a snack. Now I bid you ad6/39. I will see you tomorrow in Babbleland
