Yes, a Baccalaureate of Nursing.That's wonderful news! Congratulations!
(And before I go further... that is Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Right?)
Holy smokes. No wonder you've been scarce around these parts. (And welcome back by the way!)
I bet! You've accomplished a lot!
Never did get into that. Heard good things, of course. I started watching House. I'm only about 4 episodes in but I'm enjoying it quite a bit.
Very nice.
Happy Thanksgiving!
I sure hope so. Things are definitely starting to look a bit more promising with the recent announcements on the vaccine front.
I did!Happy Thanksgiving to you! Enjoy eating all the things!
Me? I am fine. Busy at work (got a promotion in April in the middle of lockdown, such a strange time to start a new job!). We managed to have a fairly nice summer with a week in a summer house in Denmark at the beach. That was so peaceful!
I am glad to see the update and hear about your successes with school! We had 10 days of riots in Kenosha, and I was thinking about you out in Oregon. I am sorry about your Italy trip, but is sounds like you made the best of it and repurposed your time and efforts in a positive direction. I hope you have fully recovered from your surgery and its subsequent complications. Stay well!
I know I just disappeared also. At first it was just working full time and doing the trav** ag** thing.. Then it became just too much getting upset on Facebook. Miss my DIS peeps, just out of sorts lately, Liesa, enjoy your trip and know we've got your back!
Hey! I've been neglecting the Dis myself as life has been really busy. Thank goodness for being able to keep up with most on Facebook.
I think it was/is important to try and make lemonade from the lemons. But, I confess, the pitcher is running low. Even the lemons are starting to rot now.I think we all have been a bid busy. Funny how quaratine can some how make us more busy!
Thanks, Caroline! It was in reality short, I know, but felt like it'd never end, especially towards the end. I just wanted to be done so much. But I DID learn a lot, and I DO think it'll be useful in helping me find a job when I move. Hope your Thanksgiving was a really nice one.Higlad to see you back and wow give yourself a pat on the back for completing your BSN in 4 months!! This fellow RN MSN is super proud of you!! Happy Thanksgiving

Thanks!! It sure is!!Congratulations to you! It must be a huge relief to have attained the BSN. Now what will you do with all your free time.![]()
Igloo, actually.Wait? Are you living in a cave like the rest of us? LOL!!
Sure sounds like it. Glad to see you around here again.It was pretty much all-life consuming.
I bet!Just glad it's behind me!
I suppose so. Usually I don’t have all that much time, but these are crazy times.Glad that's keeping you busy.We all need things to find to pass the time.
Well you’re in the medical profession so I defer to your expertise. I guess I’ll temper my expectations too.I guess we'll see. We've been told a lot of things that haven't been accurate, so not really holding my breath.
Wow! Eat all the foods!!!I did!And will again tomorrow!! Thanksgiving is so good, it deserves to be done twice.
Congratulations!!!But what some of you may NOT know is that I have finished my BSN!! In 4 months, I've tackled 13 classes including Biochemistry, Statistics, many classes on Nursing Leadership, Patient Safety, Quality Improvement, etc, etc.... It's devoured almost every spare moment I've had, caused major lacks of sleep, countless late nights, stress; basically I've had no life for 4 months. I am proud of my accomplishment, but more happy that I have my life back.
Considering how long it is going to be before I travel again , any Disney reading is good reading! Plus we'll have your gorgeous photos to look forward to.I've been enjoying binge watching Downton Abbey, and eating better meals the last few days now that I have time to actually cook. Slowly, I will get back to writing, but not this weekend. I have a Thanksgiving dinner to attend, I'm on call today and tomorrow, and am hosting my kids for another Thanksgiving meal Saturday. Maaaaaaybe Sunday I'll find some time to figure out where I left off and dredge up some more material that is now over a year old. I'm pretty sure it'll be boring for y'all, but the Completist in me must finish this up.
Hi Liesa! Hope you enjoy Thanksgiving with your family!So, this is just a heartfelt HELLO too all of those who are left that might still be around. If one of those might be YOU, drop a line and say 'hi' back. I've missed you! I've seen many of you on FB and while we may not always agree on this or that, I do hope we can find commonality and friendship here. With that... Happy Thanksgiving- we have much to be truly thankful for, even still.
YAAAAY!!!! You did it!!! 13 classes in 4 months is no small feat! You should be immensely proud of yourself (I'm sure you are. That was sort of bossy to say, LOL!)But what some of you may NOT know is that I have finished my BSN!!
Yes, please!Maaaaaaybe Sunday I'll find some time to figure out where I left off and dredge up some more material that is now over a year old. I'm pretty sure it'll be boring for y'all, but the Completist in me must finish this up.
HELLOOOOOO, friend!!!!So, this is just a heartfelt HELLO too all of those who are left that might still be around. If one of those might be YOU, drop a line and say 'hi' back. I've missed you!
The great White North of Winnterpeg.Igloo, actually.
Thanks PK. I’ve missed everyone around here a lot.Sure sounds like it. Glad to see you around here again.![]()
They really are. I have a long list of things I’d love to do both short-term and long-term but for now I’m going to scale back and find some rest.I suppose so. Usually I don’t have all that much time, but these are crazy times.
Let’s see… Yesterday, we enjoyed Cornish game hen, roast duck, stuffing, potatoes and gravy, homemade cranberry sauce, asparagus sautéed in garlic butter, deviled eggs, a cheeseboard, snacks with games, cherry pie, peach rhubarb pie (that we were all too far to actually eat so I’ll take to work tomorrow), Hot cider with fireball whiskey, and spiked eggnog.Wow! Eat all the foods!!!
Thanks Glenn! It’s been ages and ages since I’ve been here or have seen you. Are you back on the boards regularly now?Congratulations on finishing your BSN!
Hi Terri!! Thank you so much, it’s all very exciting to finally be a free woman again. I just hope it was all worth it in the end.I am doing the happy dance for you! Congratulations for completing your BSN! I am so happy for you!
Thank you so much!Congratulations!!!
We’ll see what I can manage later this evening. I can’t guarantee a chapter but at least I’m going to start working on things. The hard part is figuring out what I have left to write about.Considering how long it is going to be before I travel again , any Disney reading is good reading! Plus we'll have your gorgeous photos to look forward to.![]()
I super did! All of my local kids and a grandbaby made it over and we enjoyed a full day of board games, conversation, and eating. Like, a lot of eating.Hi Liesa! Hope you enjoy Thanksgiving with your family!
Thank you so much! It feels amazing! How are you doing? What’s new in your world?Congratulations on finishing your BSN
It sure does and I’m so glad to have it behind me now. Thanks for chiming in and I hope to see you again very soon!Congratulations ! Hard work pays off.
LOL! I didn’t take it as bossy at all!YAAAAY!!!! You did it!!! 13 classes in 4 months is no small feat! You should be immensely proud of yourself (I'm sure you are. That was sort of bossy to say, LOL!)
I’m going to start taking a peek at things this evening and see where I left off and how much I have left to actually write. I think it’s only a couple chapters, 3 or four at the most, but I’ll get ‘er done.Yes, please!The Type A trip report reader would love for you to complete it! (I should take my own advice here and finish up my December 2019 TR, wouldn't ya say!?)
HELLOOOOOO, friend!!!!![]()
