Pharmacist. Loves hockey, dogs and running. Living with spondyloarthritis.
My physical therapist laughed that I haven’t been there in over six months and said I was on a good run.

Hopefully it will be a short course of PT this time around.

I injured my ankle for the third (or fourth?) time this year.

Doctor: maybe try not running in heels next time you are at a wedding

Me: nah, the new goal is to just not wear heels. The husband is always running late for special events, which causes me to have to run. So flats from now on.

My husband tells physician that he takes the dog for a walk and he gets told “great work getting exercise “.

I say I take the dog for walks and I get told “yeah, that doesn’t count as exercise “.

Pup and I go further, faster, with more hills and more frequently.

Anyone else deal with similar BS?

One of my many pet peeves is being disrespectful of another person’s time.

Plumber appointment time came and went. No call, no show.

Called company office and had to reschedule to different day.

They has one more shot and only one more shot, and that’s only because my husband wants to use them.

Injuring the tendons in your wrist of your dominant hand is a definite disadvantage as a pharmacist. I was wincing opening every single vial of meds yesterday. Thankfully, I didn’t have to convert any stock bottles to non-safety caps or I probably would have cried at work.

My parents just tried to blame Biden and Shapiro for scientific research funding being cut.

I try not to yell at my parents, but I let loose tonight on this topic. Don’t piss off the pharmacist who wishes she never left the lab.

Have you ever been so exhausted that you said “bless you” to yourself after you sneezed and didn’t even realize that you did that?

Thank you for reassuring me that I’m not alone. The fact that I have colleagues that think it’s ok is mind boggling.
How does everyone feel about spelling errors on a prescription label?

I know my feelings, I just want to know if I’m alone in my feelings on it.

Coworker: Hey J. Are you going to apply to the full time position?

Me: nope, I’m happy in my current role.

Coworker: but…

Me: answer is going to remain NO. There are plenty of former Rite Aid pharmacists that would be happy to take that role.

Coworker: that’s fair

I heard “I’m sorry I didn’t see you” 2x today.

I should have heard “I’m sorry I’m an ignorant twat who shouldn’t have been staring at my cellphone” instead.

I wasn’t wearing black at night in a poorly lit area.
I was wearing a bright orange shirt in daylight.

Disconnect sometimes. It’s ok.

Woke up early and put food together in the slow cooker before work.

Got home from work to find the power had gone out at some point. The slow cooker didn’t turn back on and the food was cold.

Well, I guess I need a new idea for dinner.

It has been slightly terrifying driving to/from work the last two days. I was nearly hit head on Friday going to work. The pickup came within inches of my vehicle. The SUV that was so close to my bumper yesterday on my way home (I wasn’t going under the speed limit). Staying home today and tomorrow.

The old headphones refuse to connect to my phone. I guess the new ones might be necessary after all.
I lost my running headphones, and I searched for them for over a week. I ordered a new pair.

I found the old pair today.

The new pair were delivered a few minutes later.

Apparently, I’m only allowed to have one decent night of sleep every two and a half to three weeks.

A nice autoimmune flare, but still managed my second best half marathon time today (out of 5).

It was nice to have a super long breakfast date with an old friend.

When the reality is that the greatest stressor in my life is the government of the country where I live, it is damned depressing. And terrifying.

I signed up for a race while visiting my in-laws in a few weeks. I’m framing it to myself as getting a medal for putting up with my MAGA in-laws. I also intend on running slower than normal, to maximize time avoiding them and keeping myself sane.

Met new PCP, really liked them. Halfway through the appointment, told me they are already leaving the practice. I understand why. I am just frustrated that it is a revolving door with no continuity.
