much ado

Just having a nothing much doing day watching stock market going down reading food blogs and the girl with the dragon tattoo. computers are time wasters I guess could be cleaning well gardening anyway. Back veranda still a nightmare of stuff of Mums that I find hard to get rid of. All sentimental. We are quiet at work I thought because of GFC but the others laughed and said most of the Mums wouldnt have heard of it. We dont have the brightest demographic I admit but then I was barely aware of world economy buried in motherhood, barely aware of my toes. 
Big puzzle was girl with retained urine. I've never seen this problem before much but we have had a couple now. They either cant void at all or they just void small amounts and retain heaps. We thought she was ok but when we did a bladder scan she had a lot retained and then put the catheter back in there was 3L she went home with a catheter in  and follow up. I did some reading but it all looks pretty vague. Seems to just cure itself the trouble is we get no feedback so you never know the outcomes of these things. Academic papers are ok but somehow anecdotal teaches you the fine details. Someone dug out a four page protocol of urine retention I had a bit of a look at it but it was a bit much to take in, must have another look later.
