In a fix

Not much but the usual going on around here. My MAC computer is on its last leg, won't "tab", goes dark unexpectedly, etc, but Stud Muffin came to the rescue with a new Sony Vaio. In Lipstick Red. Yum. But now I have to get use to a PC again, and it is taking some time!

The snow has all melted and I'm hoping the ground dries out soon. I need to prune the fruits trees this month before they even think about budding again. Right now, it's all I can do to walk around outside without sinking into the mud.

Also on the fix it list is my hip bursitis. Unfortunately, this time it is in my left hip and not the usual right side. Studly had to drive me to school the other day because I couldn't get my leg into the car! I have now been harpooned with steroids and can stand up straighter, but I gotta tell ya. This growing old stuff is for the birds!!

This is a photo of the actual syringe used by my doctor to treat hip bursitis. Do not try this at home!

Putting in another 8 hours of clinicals at the hospital tomorrow. Hopefully, I won't get another patient who tells me how I'm doing everything wrong! Really beats up on my confidence level!

Last week, I had a turn at the nursing home where I will finish out the semester after spring break. Luckily for me (but not the patient) my patient couldn't talk much and wasn't very aware of her surroundings. Nobody to complain about my technique. Of course, she also couldn't move at all and it took three of us to roll her from side to side. It also took me (and my partner) one and a half hours to bathe her. Still no complaints from the patient, but that is a story for another day!

See? Nothing much going on. The blogosphere is pretty quiet these days. so what's going on with you all?
