Very sweet of you. I'd have no idea what to tell you to put in it, though. Neck armor, maybe? :-/

Ooh, it has a fireplace too? What a perfect room! I'd have to be pried out with a crowbar. :)

Wow, with a view (and room) like that, who *cares* what it's doing outside? Beautiful!

Bad, @

? It's just typical PNW winter weather. I don't mind; it's a small price to pay for the glorious springtime to come!

I told my kids if there was no grownup to intervene, then by golly, HIT BACK! Gotta balance politeness & self-preservation! :)

It's just 3 php files to go in wp-includes, so easy enough to un-patch if it doesn't work.

Thanks! Nothing's wrong with the evening, it's me who's off-kilter. I'll get straightened out soon enough. :) Happy new year back!

Do you really think saying "don't worry" to nursemom will actually cause her to not worry, @

?

Kindness and caution can coexist. Trust, but pay attention to where pt is, never turn your back, & always keep an escape route.

Maybe a long, hot bath would put me in a better frame of mind for dealing with a new year...(I was just getting used to the old one!)

I like to think I'm always careful...but she's a veteran RN. I keep wondering if he'd have caught me off guard too. Scary thought!

Yep...Also it's really hard to remember not to rely on our social conditioning & expect normal cues/danger signs.

She's traumatized, but ok. I'm taking the lesson to heart. No matter how nice the psychotic patient is, *don't* turn your back.

Thinking about my coworker who was assaulted...it was my usual shift, but schedules were changed due to holiday. It could have been me. :-/
