Had a patient put hands on a fellow RN today. A man had the audacity to touch her lower abdomen & say ”looks like someone’s been having fun” & walked away. She told me & the manager right away. She was shocked. I’m telling you that the behavior of men has gotten damn brazen in the last month.

Procrastinating writing a paper so I went to FB to see what’s happening. Oh Lordy,the Boomers are big mad a Kendrick. MAGA is bigger mad! You’d think they’d be supportive of a certain song calling out a suspected pedo, but no. They just big mad & want “classic artists” back. Yes I stirred that pot 😈

Lucky research day today! All of the CDC, NIH,and HHS pages I needed to write my paper were all still online. Kinda shocked as I was writing on HIV transmission in vulnerable populations. Seemed like that would be something they’d of censored.

Wondering if with the “pause” on federal student loans if I get to continue on my path to become a nurse practitioner. My next quarter begins in March. I really hope I get to continue. I’ve worked hard to get here and I’m not looking forward to a “pause”. I don’t want to give up on this.

TIL that if I express healthy methods to cope with the stress, anxiety & anger of our current situation I am wrong. Apparently if I’m not all “fight fight fight” I’m doing it wrong. I’ve read enough about times like this to know that caring for yourself & your spirit is crucial to survival.

I know we are in strange times but don’t let them steal your hope & joy. That’s when they start to win. Keep making art & music. Find what makes you happy because that is what will give you the ability to endure. Find community, nature, friendship & love. That will fuel you for the hard days ahead
