Great. We have a toddler too. Working from home may be a bit of a challenge but I'm happy I get to spend the extra time with them.

You are a quick worker! A whole toddler already?

Pretty good, actually. We’re both still working full time and are set up in different rooms, so we don’t get in each others way too much.

We had a rough first couple days - my wife is in the office and I’m in the kitchen so she came down to chat whenever she had free time which wasn’t conducive to my work. But after the early learning curve it is going well and I think we both enjoy it.

My spouse is laid off and has been helping me me with admin stuff, doing chores while I toil away. After work we chill out have stimulating conversation, lots of laughs. No arguments. It has been very nice. :)

Hey all, any recommendations for soothing, rich moisturizers (or other products) that address redness and irritation? I use retinol a few times a week and find that sometimes it causes redness and flaking. I try all the things: spacing it out more, sandwiching it between layers of moisturizer, etc. Currently I use Tower 28’s SOS serum and kiehl's ultra facial cream. Both are nice but wondering if there is some super product that can really soothe my face.

I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who shares in this group. It truly helps me stay sober. I am approaching 12 months sober but have been struggling lately. While I have not relapsed, I’ve been close. Normally, before I get out of bed, I write down my reason to stat sober for the day, but lately the reasons have been lousy at best. But reading about everyone’s struggles and successes has helped get me through this past month. So thank you all for the inspiration to keep going strong!

Real question: how does a hospital system using a leading EHR not know where in the facility a patient is?

She played “transfer me to Dept X bingo” (ED, med/surg, OR, PACU), til she found a nurse who knew where he was. How does this happen?

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?
