Plan for the best, prepare for the worst. I think some people plan for the best but are very ill prepared for the worst. And there are those who just think everything is going to work out and haven’t planned or prepared for anything

It’s tragic and shocking how many people assume Social Security will replace their income dollar for dollar and that Medicare is free.

Look for well-established hospices that haven’t had a recent change in ownership. Avoid new hospices or ones that have been added to an established home health care agency. Seeing a ton of home health that are adding hospice services. That is there built in base for hospice services

Harvey Weinstein produced films give me the icks. No, he didn’t direct or star in any or them, but just his proximity to them has kind of tarnished them for me.

Oh so true! Even my clothes have SPF! And I’ve never traveled somewhere that had bathrooms with sunscreen dispensers in bathrooms like at the Desert Museum or outdoor events like the Festival of Books or 4th Ave Street Fair!

I drive past a private christian school on the way to work every day and their digital billboard broadcasts how parents can apply for ESA funds, the name for school voucher program in AZ. Will surpass $1 billion of tax payer dollars this year! It’s disgusting!

Forget lunch at home on Tuesday so had to get hospital cafeteria food. Being Tuesday, of course taco Tuesday. Was offered lettuce on my taco and pretty sure I screamed NO! Just extra cheese and no salsa because I don’t know where the cilantro was sourced. Good times here in the US

Agreed, BUT, we have a nearly 100 lb, high anxiety lab/Great Pyrenees mix. Our vet is still privately owned, and medications for high anxiety events, like the 4th, we have to use medications: 200 trazodone and 100 gabapentin. The fn neighbors need to stop the fireworks!

What’s nuts about Real ID not counting is to get Real ID, you have to provide original or certified copy of birth certificate or a passport. I had my birth certificate, marriage license, passport, nursing license and 2 documents proving residency. Why doesn’t Real ID count?

Most residential AC units are only designed to cool 20-22 degrees below outside temperature. Learned this from HVAC guy when we had to replace our unit. We live in SE AZ, so 105-110 isn’t unheard of. We keep ours at 78. Anything lower than that when 100+ only makes unit work harder and costs more

Had a lab/springer mix that ate a whole family pack of Ivory soap. When I found him after the deed, he was slightly foaming at the mouth, when the diarrhea started, it smelled clean and fresh. It was like a colonoscopy bowel prep for a dog. The vet nearly gave himself a hernia trying not to laugh

Hospital RN case manager here. MA plans are a nightmare but use the right words! SNF and IPR are not long term care. These are short term with skilled needs like physical therapy or wound care, 1-2 weeks usually. Medicare and MA plans don’t cover long term or custodial care.

Need advice. Neighbor had storage units removed from their yard and took out our gas meter. Have no gas, hot water for some indeterminate period of time. We seem to be on the hook for at least $4,000. For something we had nothing to do with! Anything we can do?

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

What are your goals? If it’s working in higher ed, not worth it. Most colleges want PhD or DNP now and the politics in higher ed are atrocious. If you want to stay in hospitals, I’d say go for it. I have MSN Ed and work in hospital case management now and plenty of chance to teach

Jackie Robinson grew up in a diverse Pasadena neighborhood, & when one of those neighbors, his baseball teammate Shig Takayama, was incarcerated at Manzanar with his family, the Robinsons helped take care of their home. For my new column, a story of the worst & best of America through baseball. 🗃️
