COVID-19 -- A Slow Storm?
Comments (43)Lucille, he is right. Working on a med-surg unit I have NEVER suggested something to any residents or doctors, EVER-lol. Like the time a surgeon WASN'T cutting on a patient's foot a the bedside and I went to see if they had anything ordered for pain. Doctor told me he can't feel it, I did NOT tell him to look at his patient's face and he did not stop and go order some morphine. Have not seen an OB put a mother and baby at risk after another nurse told him he should not break the mother's water, baby's heart rate did not plummet and mom was definitely not rushed to OR for emergency C-section because the doctor almost killed the baby. Never happened. I've never had to call doctors constantly to fix a med error on a patient's chart, that, by-the-way, was processed by a pharmacist. This did not include a deadly 100 unit insulin order that happened quite frequently because the doctor didn't know how to put the order in right and well, pharmacy... Nursing school is also so easy that half our class every semester didn't fail out. Never happened and nursing school was a breeze. I could go on but I won't. You're wrong Lucille, just face it. He's right, as usual....See MoreFolding At Home Covid-19 Edition
Comments (5)I used a Newton all through business school but was a PC guy otherwise. When I got my first Mac, in early 2000s, I switched completely to Apple for personal use although my industry runs on PC so I’ve always used PCs for work. I got pretty close to Apple and got my firm to start buying AAPL in the portfolios around 2002, at one point we were the fifth largest shareholder. We still are a 90% Apple family, the only PC in the house is DS’s Thinkpad for architecture school. Now that I have my own tiny biz I still have to use PCs for work but can spec whatever I want, no more using low end business PCs. I have a Thinkstation P330 Xeon workstation as my desktop and a Thinkpad P1 mobile workstation as my notebook. Next year I’m thinking of upgrading to a P920 dual Xeon workstation and giving DS my current workstation for his architecture studies. I’m enjoying getting back into the PC world but still prefer Macs for home....See MoreCOVID 19- subcontractors shutting down!
Comments (18)We are building right now as well. We found out that the company that we are getting all of our plumbing fixtures is closed, but we were lucky that they were able to ship us the rough-ins. I am emailing the tile person my Pinterest boards, and she is going to pull samples, and I can meet her by appointment. As of now, our kitchen cabinet manufacturer in Canada is still open. Our windows are supposed to go on Monday, but now it's going to rain again for four days, so we are praying they can get them in next week. You are so lucky to be so far along. I would look for other cabinet makers on your own and get bids....See MoreHow is your COVID-19 reopening going?
Comments (132)If Ohio's reported cases are declining in the metro areas, that's wonderful. In the mostly rural southern and southeastern counties that had only a few early cases, new cases seem to be on a slow increase. Vinton was the last to have no reported cases, then in the last weeks they've jumped to 16. That might reflect testing for someone's whole family, co-workers, a nursing home--I don't know the details--and I know that seems to be a small number compared to other areas. Kathsgrdn, I have been very impressed with KY's stats (as well as WV's). We have relatives in a KY county which borders the river, and one of my brothers works in WV, so I check their stats often. My father is ecstatic that the local Bob Evans is opening for inside dining tomorrow. I'm not so thrilled, since he is 83 and won't wear a mask or properly distance himself from others. ETA, here's our 21-day trend--unfortunately up almost 250 more cases than yesterday (484):...See MoreJasdip
