dog makes me laugh


The nurse was late yesterday. She didn't arrive until 5:30 and should have been here by 2 O'clock.
I always put the dog in her coop for the nurses visit because she would be in our way. Foxy had been cooped up for awhile when the nurse left so I let her out to go to the rest room. She must have know that she was penned up because of the nurse because she chased her car. The dog doesn't case cars but she chased the nurses car maybe she was trying to run her off for ever.
The nurses don't keep good hours. They will be here at 2:30 next day 5:30. This is a problem because I need my wound cleaned on a regular bases.
Any way the discharge from my wound makes my skin red and sore. So this morning thinking that that it would be several hours before they came and my skin was burning I poured peroxide inside the bandage and then the nurse showed up in a hour so I had to tell her what I had done. It had stoped the burning. She said don't do that. I said if you people would keep some what regular hours I would not have a problem. 28 hours one day between visits and now you are here after 16 hours. How can I know when you people are comming or if you are going to show up at all!
This was a new nurse. I think she will not come here willing again.

Erin has thought that she would like the home health job....you would like her too. she would be like the one momma had...who went away with a mattress straped to the top of her car as momma found out she needed a mattress for her children to sleep on. sis 3

Sometimes their schedules much change suddenly too - and then your visit gets knocked around. I'm sure it's still easier than going into the office, having the nurse come to you, even when she's early or late.
