Mrs. 93 called with an update. She had an hour long telephone interview with the college of nursing. Sounds like they want her to be clinical faculty for them starting in the fall. She would be at a lecturer rank (non-tenured), but could work her way into a tenured position. The position is a joint deal, 85% college of nursing, 15% hospital. So she would be back to some bedside nursing in the hospital on the unit where she started 16 years ago. Not as much money as her ARNP job, but a lot less stress and liability - & summers off.

Grateful to have some good news.

-- I always loved that thread about the little pool. Still remember driving past it when I lived in Lexingtion.

I used to post a little on the scout board a little. I think I went by ihguy or iowaguy or something like that. The most I ever posted was when I once got into an argument with some guy about smoking. He was all about smokers rights. I don't even remember what my stance was. I think I told him that I was glad smoking was banned in restaurants. He equated me to Hitler. Cuz, you know, gassing Jews is basically the same as saying wait until your outside to light up.

I like that you like that I like it.

Hahah. Reminds me of Dr. Strangelove.

I'm sorry, too, Dmitri... I'm very sorry... *All right*, you're sorrier than I am, but I am as sorry as well... I am as sorry as you are, Dmitri! Don't say that you're more sorry than I am, because I'm capable of being just as sorry as you are... So we're both sorry, all right?... All right.

This is long. Skip if you want.

FCC - I ain't gonna lie. This shiz sucks. Waiting & not knowing. WIfe has applied for a dozen or so jobs. The only ones that she has heard back from were a quick no. She is a pediatric nurse practitioner, and most places want a family nurse practitioner (can cover more ages).

Her last few days at home, I can tell that she is getting more stressed. She is not used to being at home all day. She had given her cell number out to a few of her patients that she really cared about. One of them called her Sunday, because they are running out of medication, and she has always been able to get in touch with the pharmacy to make sure they have a supply (nation wide shortage). She not only misses going to work, but she misses the families that she helped. Told me about the anti-vax family that she had finally convinced to do vaccinations. Another family where the mom & dad couldn't be together, so she set up 2 appoointments for them.

Yesterday, she got the letter that unemployment has been denied. Said she violated a known workplace rule. Um yeah, her & another 2000 docs in the place.

I have acccess to a gym at work, so I go there on my lunch hour. Started talking to a guy in the sauna. He gave me some good advice. He said: keep your head up, don't look back, keep praying, and you will make it through this.

A few days ago, I passed by my wife's former boss in the hallway. He smiled & said hello 93. It seemed odd.

She is looking into travel nursing jobs. Hoping to take an assignment here in town. Maybe even the same hosptal that fired her. The travel companies generally pay a better wage, & it costs the hospital more.

My weight loss is slowing down. I've dropped 16 lbs. A mix of stress, eating less, & not eating out.

I'm anxoius to hear something on the grievance. On one hand, she was late with some documentation. On the other hand, the documentation policy lays out the discipline for being late. That part was not followed. It also turns out that in addition to her clinical duties, her boss had her managing the office and the nursing staff (regular nurses actually answer to a different department). It was a situation where she was setup to fail. Pisses me off.

Later today, I have to go into an area of the hospital near her old office. I'm not looking forward to it.

I am looking forward to her getting back to work somewhere. I'm gonna plan a trip to the beach for next summer.

Thanks for the info Grad. The guy gave you good advice. Yes or no question. Do you attend Church? FCC.

Thanks Blu. The last few days have been pretty bad for my wife. I hate to see someone I love hurting.

FCC - I haven't been to church in a long time. I used to go to church as a kid, then in college. Actually a few of my college friends ended up being clergy. At that time, I was sure that I would be a deacon or elder, but once I moved away, I just never got back into it. I tried again 4-5 years ago, but quickly got de-railed. OK, so that was more than yes or no.

Had to move to Chrome for my mobile browser because of the board change. All of the family's chrome browsers are connected, so now I have to remember to empty the history of the questionable things I search for to post on this board, e.g. "Dickbutt" and "Taylor Swift Bikini"

There's probably a lesson in there somewhere.

Hey mav and desperado, I don't really think you're ****, but I couldn't risk Tay Tay seeing that thread wherein I didn't protect her honor. Plus you guys really hurt my feelings calling her a skinny boy.

Hope you understand.

Kooky- Yeah- That was a weed stock. Spent $120. Got back about $690. Then I saw another penny stock. Non-weed and it's prolly some scam of a shell. but I think I will atleast get $300 before they dilute the damn thing. Can't hold on to these for too long. I'm learning to flip it on 1 or 2 ticks up.

Also just knowing who are the ones to follow. The rest are pumpers and they will get your money. The other part is. I can't read a chart for ****. I barely know anything about it, but I'm learning who to watch that does know. They ain't always right. But I'll start small and see if builds. About the same odds for me as horse racing or sports betting. I ain't worth a **** for those either. At least with this I can at least some moves. we'll see. hahaha
