PSA: Issuing ultimatums, yelling, or engaging in really passive agressive behavior doesn't bring people closer to you. And if you're using this type of approach on people who have lived through (or currently living in) an abusive relationship, it really, really, doesn't work.
Someone I care about, someone precious to me, someone who actually gets me, and who has been a friend and confidante to me was in the crowd in #KC this afternoon. Until I heard that they were safe, I was in full on panic. The idea that I could lose this person... No. I can't.
Quick post b/c getting messages asking if I'm ok after the Superbowl Parade. Thanks to those reaching out. I'm safe & apologize if I have not answered anyone. Just a little chaotic right now trying to check in w/ other family & friends to determine if everyone ok.
@facciabella Thank you gorgeous!! It's absolutely wonderful seeing something from you! Makes my heart smile knowing you're out there.. I don't get online much anymore. But this made my night.
Pt upset b/c hospital sandwich didn't have cheese, bacon, etc (cardiac diet).
Him, yelling: "IT'S BIDEN'S FAULT." He's serious.
Me: "I've worked here for 24 yrs. Same sandwich under Bush, Obama, Trump & Biden. It's just hospital food."
Him: "HE PLANNED THIS SHIT SINCE '99!!"๐
@heidiknits Makes you wonder, huh? Two yrs ago, I was chosen for an invitation to their banquet to recognize outstanding nurses, but we still had to buy our tickets - $300.
That's a nope from me.
For nurses week this year, the hospital is collecting money from the nurses to make gift baskets for a silent auction - to benefit the hospital foundation.
I don't really give a shit about Nurses Week in general, but I had to laugh about this one. Classic.
