My inactivity explained.

Post by MoPag » Wed Jun 30, 2021 9:41 am

So....I've been a little less than active the past year or so. It's not that I don't love you guys. You are my NOM ward family and always will be.

For the past two years I've been in nursing school. It was insanely hard and time consuming, particularly since I had to learn how to be a nurse in the middle of a global pandemic. And now I am officially MoPag RN. And I can put my community college's name on my resume instead of the name of a racist polygamist. Yay!!!!!!

So that's why I was gone. Now I'm back and ready to party with my favorite people in my favorite forum!

Congratulations on passing the RN exam. Now MoPag will be able to assess our cognition and blood gases from the comfort of NOM.
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Congrats MoPag!!!!

Here I thought you graduated from Mormonism?

Even better you're now our personal NOM RN! I’ve had a headache the last few days. Probably because of the heatwave. I’ve been drinking plenty of water and have removed the extra non essential layer of religious underwear. Ibuprofen seems to help. Do you think I should go to my primary care doctor or my dermatologist?

Headaches can be lots of different things. You are on the right track with extra water and removing non essential religious underclothing. :)

Wow - that's amazing! Congrats on a great accomplishment and such a vital career. Having been through WAY too many hospitals the last 4-5 years for my mom, I can't tell you what a difference nurses can make for a patient's sanity and well being. :D
