Watching the Sox drop to 2 GB in the AL East

Drinking a Dark'N'Stormy.

I watched the same thing last night.

I could have used a D&S.

Instead I went to the Chinese place up the street and had several Mai Tais...

Now: Sitting at my desk, wishing I had several less Mai Tais.

Up at 6:15am...kids out the door to school..its quiet again. Laundry going. Gonna wash those grays right outta my hair :) Clean the pool. Clean up the kids rooms...they are slobs. Work out for a bit. Hopefully cover the pool when he gets home. Dinner. Pick up son from football practice. Drop daughter off at cheer practice. Then its off to work for a freakin' computer class for 4 hours. We are going paperless. Everything is going online. I have taken 5 1 hour classes to become a "superuser" so i can help the staff when we go "live" in October. Now i have to take a couple 4 hour classes to actually learn how to do my own work. At least its OT. Hope to be home from that by 11:30pm.

Ahh, going paperless. Both the BEST thing we ever did at my office :) and the WORST thing we ever did at my office :mad: (atleast for the 1st 2 or 3 months until everyone got used to it) Love it now, much different than my opinion a year ago though - I think 1/2 my office staff even forgot how to turn on the computers right after we took the plunge :rolleyes:

Haha...im sure its going to be alot easier. Im just a bit concerned about certain staff members. We have a few "simple" people...not being mean...just saying that they arent going to really be "into" it. They are old school and LAZY!!! You know the phrase...its easier/quicker to do it myself?? Thats going to be the nurses. And thankfully i work nights so it will be easier to access the computers. I have a 54 bed unit and we have 3 computers on the desk and they are putting 3 or 4 of them in the hallways. I just dont see how all the residents, attendings, med students, nursing students, social workers, nurses.....etc are going to have time to do all the owrk they need to do. At least at night, its usually me<Team Leader> 1 or 2 other nurses and an aide or 2. If we arent busy the residents are sleeping, so that eliminates them. Its going to save me alot of pain in my wrists from writing charts on anwhere from 2 to 15 patients everynight. We only need to chart by exception. Works for me!! :)

Just finished a compliance inspection at one of my sites. Did pretty well and no generator issues this time! :)

Off to sign timesheets (boring).

Yep that's where its all going in this era That's the idea full EMR w/ RX/script capability will ultimately make things go more smoothly and hopefully reduce med error etc and just NOT having to read a doc's handwriting --PRICELESS .

As a Med Center Board type i've been after this for years so appreciate the effort you and your people are going thru.

When you said Funk, I wasn't expecting to see Led Zeppelin, Phish, Clapton, or the Beatles on it.

Well.... We tend to do our own versions of songs... It all ends up funk somehow. And yes the band has morphed a bit... We can dub or funk things up.. We have a DJ playing with us... Sax and trombone too...

Our original music tends to be funk influenced... i can't help the funk influence... I hit on the 1 all the time...
