Yep, graduated from training in 1975, retired in 2015. Yes it's very tough and heartbreaking at times but definitely rewarding. If I had it to do over again would I......no. But then careers for women in 1975 weren't the same as they are now. Now I probably would have chosen something like physical therapist if I wanted a medical career. But I'd probably not choose medicine again. Too much about what the insurance companies think is good for a patient and not enough about what the doctors and nurses think.

Now I probably would have gone into CGI imaging/art.

I bet it was!! I bet you saw some sad stuff though.

And yeah it really is amazing what’s available to everybody now! There’s so many options or even just making up your own career/business. It’s pretty awesome.

That sounds like a lot of fun! Do you do art too? Man I’m learning a lot of new stuff about you tonight

Sorry if you’ve mentioned all this before, I may have just forgotten.

I think they measure the snow down there in inches, rather than feet. Might not need ditches for the runoff.

The water just runs down the gravel driveway. Lots of wet weather streams here as well.

Didn’t know you were a nurse Micro. That seems like it would be a very tough job. we have family friends who are nurses (literally like the whole family lol) and I definitely don’t envy them. Tough gig.

They love it though.

Lots of us nurses around.

Yes, but I can't name them off the top of my head. And SCG is a Pharmacist.

That’s alright! I just find it interesting ha seems there’s lots of dog show/grooming people too right??

And ah yes that one I do remember now! Only cause someone thought the name was about drugs or something and she explained it.

We got about 3 inches of snow today but, it melted on driveway & street. Just sitting on the grass and weeds. I'm hoping it means no more lawn mowing for the year. Usually they can squeeze in another -

Well I may have lost the opportunity to have the gutters cleaned and /or gutter covers put on.
