Single Roll Call

[Sewfun]

Funny you mentioned that, I had a visit at work yesterday from a salesman that works for a MN company, Colder Products. They make couplings and quick disconnects for fluid transmission. Anyway, he made a comment about me being in shorts (yes, I wear shorts to work) and then said how the name of the company had something to do with the weather.

So, how cold is it?

When it hits 30 in the middle of winter, people are wearing short sleeves. Yesterday we were around 20 something, right now at 31 and woke up to an inch of snow on the ground. We had a low of 12 of the other night. Way too early in the year for this.

I grew up in Las Vegas and anything under 70 is freezing to me. I miss the desert and heat all year round. It doesn't get hot enough for me here in MN.

You can have your Vegas Heat. . .I miss my west coast Beaches. . .lol

Something I can (hopefully!) join in on

I am pretty new to the boards...but I am Kara, 25, and a single momma from Indiana. Planning our first trip to Disney in May. I have a great 2 1/2 year old little boy named Rylan

I see some people are considering a move! I just said the other day that I would love to move to the Orlando area. I am in school right now and hope to get into the nursing program...so it would be nice to see what's available. I have family in Land O' Lakes so it would be even better to be near them as well

There are so many of us that are wanting to move, we should all just invest in a whole new condo complex...

Good luck on the the nursing program. I graduated in May from doing the same, well, upping my level of nursing and it was hard, especially the last semester. Am looking into my next round of classes for prerequisites for my BSN or the certificate program in an area I love.

Thanks. Its pretty competitive at my school so I am keeping my fingers crossed. I am really nervous but I know its my "calling".

Wendy- Nice to hear u had a good laugh... some of the Minnesota speak is just hilarious!!! Check out the book, "How to Speak Minnesotan," for a few more laughs!!!

 

[ToddRN]

Wow... so many nurses here. I'm gonna do a paper on the correlation between RN's and Disney-lovers for my masters thesis... or maybe create an evidence based practice... or order set... Also, I have a dog- German shepherd/border collie mix, "Chocolate." Best dog ever!

LOL! I am originally from Texas and spent only 5 years in Minnesota. My dd began her school career there. Every single time I called her school, they instantly knew who I was just from the little bit of a Texas accent I have. During our time in MN, I managed to get my coworkers to say y'all and soda instead of you guys and pop.

Oh and today was a really good one. I was offered a job that I will start in January. I finish my degree this month so the timing is perfect. Hmmmmm......I wonder if I could squeeze in a quick trip to see Mickey in between those two events. I mean it has been two years and I know he misses Diva and I.

Kris....you have a beautiful dog...

Thanks. He's a sweetie. (Unless you're a squirrel or a vole ... then you're toast.) He's a little sad. We're driving to Ohio tomorrow morning for Thanksgiving - he will miss us.
