Thank you, everyone. I appreciate your good wishes.
And Ms Mary, I think that once you make the adjustment, you will like the computer charting. I just finished a job where I taught a new electronic med rec system to staff at a large hospital and many clinics. I watched them implement it, and things went very well. They took very little time to acclimate to it. I am sure that it will be the same for you.
So far, I made 3 charting errors. When I went to correct them, I found out I hadn't been given the permissions to do that. The techies who are helping us switch over had to call to get my permissions changed.
Thinks I have to remember to do:
Change the time of the action to the time I did it, not the time I am charting it.
Make sure I am selecting the correct patient in the list to chart on.
Things I have to figure out:
Which forms I am required to chart on and which are optional. They are not *exactly* the same as our paper forms (unlike another hospital where I did computer charting).

Irritated, verging on angry. I had to choose my modules for the next academic year today, but didn't find out until it was too late. Clearly the university didn't think I needed to be informed. I can see I'm going to have to fight the administrators over this...
I had a moment of laughter earlier. I was test driving a customer's car and I was behind this big loud Harley Davidson motorcycle with this big burly dude on it. The kind of motorcycle with the big high handles etc. The guy totally looked like a Hell's Angel and even had a big grey grizzly braid down the middle of his back and as I was looking at him I realize that the slogan on his t-shirt is "Mischief Managed." Yes, even big burly biker dudes like Harry Potter.
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

I would love to know of the mischief he managed though.
I think it would be a bit different than the Marauders mischief...
Hi MsMary-We've been doing computerized charting for a year. I can't tell you how many times I finished my charting only to look up and see the wrong patient. Ugh!!! Good luck, hang in there, it gets a little easier!
If you can't say something positive then say nothing at all!

That is so awesome!
My son, when wearing his Harry Potter shirt in the airport, had the experience of having this big burly guy come up to him and say, "Nice shirt."

I cried in public today...in front of lots of people. I generally don't cry and I feel a bit embarassed over the whole thing. I hope everyone forgets about the whole thing except for the person who was a jerk to me....of course they were gone when the tears started flowing so I guess it was a non event for them. Now I am having trouble getting to sleep...I could use a big hug.
Lore, sorry to here about your brother....I send a hug your way.
Lorelei, I know exactly what you mean. I hate to cry in public too. But I am certain it will fade in people's memories, and I am certain that no one thinks worse of you for it.
dont worry, Lorelei! They will forget and whats more there is nothing evil about crying...is there??
