Oh they are beautiful kitties TC. Sorry I’m not my usual feisty self. I was in a car accident last night after leaving work. Crazy, six cars involved. I was plowed into by a truck that had been hit by another one and another one. My car may be totaled but I’m okay just really achy all over. I’m so glad to be home now with all of my kitcats on my lap. A natural heating pad.

Put your feet up and take another day off , give those muscles a chance to heal a bit before you go back. My cousins are both nurses, I know what you do can be a workout.
treat yourself well. at our age, a little shake-up can really mess you up. I had a little fall last month and the bruises weren't gone for at least ten days. some very interesting colors, though.
Thank you David. I’m working on it. My niece talked me out of going to work today. So making some progress on that front. Those psychedelic bruises are really something though
Karen, since you are an RN, you’ve probably long ago heard about arnica gel for making bruises heal and disappear faster. So sorry to hear about the awful car accident. I’m glad you escaped without serious injuries. Glad you are giving yourself time to recover.
It works brilliantly if you take homeopathic arnica internally right after the injury. I always carry a vial in my coat. 30C is good, and 200C is better. I gave some to one of my dogs when she had to have an ingrown nail removed, and she bled so little, the vet started asking me where he could get some.
it's interesting that, in some venues, ANY "alternative medicine" has become "right-wing." pretty dumb. similarly, when I was working in my Bronx middle school, somebody told me that phonics-based reading instruction was also considered " right-wing ". it was the stupidest thing I'd ever heard and I asked why people said this. the answer was that Bush favored it in Texas (if so, it might have been the one true thing he ever promoted), and my answer was that I was pretty sure Bush went to piss first thing in the morning but I wasn't about to start holding it in because I couldn't stand him. this shit can get crazy.
but do whatever you need to do, Karen. we need you WELL.

Oh boy! Take care and heal soon!
Thank you
Hope you're feeling better today Karen. What a way to end your day at work.
Thank you Bliss. Yes, it made for a very long and stressful day.

seriously, Karen, be kind to yourself.

Yes, definitely take it easy till the bruises aren't "psychedelic"
Excellent advice. I would give the same. Nurses are the worst patients.
My daughter is proof
My most sincere sympathies, been thru one recently, it’s a bitch, but glad your kitties have their Mama
Thank you Jeri

Yes, I love Arnica. I always have some on hand. Thank you Elizabeth.

Funny how the pendulum swings. Thank you David. It’s nice to be needed.
Karen! Better by the time you read this! Sure is when we need our guardian angels.
Light!

Thank goodness you are OK. Rest up and be well soon!
Thank you Lynn.
The heart is for glad you're ok and 'keeping warm'.
Thank you Tamera. I have a 2 cat heating pad on me right now.
