3/4 of the family voted. #1 son took an Uber 40 miles to go vote where he is registered. #2 son said he would vote in November when it counted. Of course DH and I both voted.
Random Florida voting report. The last couple weeks I have been in 100% Spanish speaking medical offices training doctors stuff. I had my Voted sticker on my purse and was often told how great that was and how important it is to vote. I don't get involved with talking politics on the job, but there was a lot of enthusiasm, and I really don't think they were Trump supporters. I did have one doctor tell me he was sad to not be able to vote for Biden. Also, another nice thing about these past couple weeks has been Cuban coffee at every office. Yum.
Daaaang. CNN is projecting the Ohio GOP winner as Kasich.
Oh, flea, meant to add, had something similar pop up at work a decade ago. Well known and well liked coworker had taken early retirement a couple years earlier in the big layoff. And then was arrested and convicted for child porn a couple years later. Like really young kids. It was freaky and icky and a lot of people who'd socialized with him when they had young kids had a shitton of hard questions.
Mmm, I want Cuban coffee at the office!!
Have been in Valparaiso Chile the past couple days. Sadly it's been terribly cloudy, so pictures haven't been great (and this is a town full of cute houses on hills and tons of street art--taking pictures is really most of what there is to do!). Tomorrow we head to another small town to hopefully see some of their wine festival.

Well, that's a little bit of good news, at least. I've seen reports that Rubio has dropped out after losing Florida to Trump.

Seriously, I don't usually indulge at the end of the day, but the Cuban office manager brought me a cup at 5:30 that she had added some vanilla to and it was so tasty.
Rubio's departing speech was long and annoying. Then the silly pundit talked about what a charismatic speaker he was. Huh?
Not sorry to see Rubio go. Useless twat.
Does losing Ohio slow Drumpf's roll at all?
Thanks for all the good thoughts. The appointment today went okay. The new gyn is MUCH better and was pretty upbeat...but she found a mass that requires
a transvaginal ultrasound
. She wanted to schedule the test for tomorrow, but it probably won't be until the end of the month.
The blood draw was fairly typical now that I've mastered the sheer strength of will strategy for dealing with my phobia. It took forever, but I was able to keep it together until the very end. The phlebotomist was very kind, but quietly alarmed. I went into the bathroom to cry for a while and was able to get a healthy dinner afterward. Given that I had been fasting for 18 hours, it really is a miracle I didn't decompensate.
My right arm is useless to me right now and I'm as weak as a kitten, but this round is over.
Keeping you in my thoughts, bonny. And my best friend is a doctor who is always happy to answer medical questions so let me know if I can pass any along (also, given how close by you are, let me know if you need specialist recommendations because she's good for that too.)
Thank you so much, lisah. I will definitely ping you. I really thought menopause was a piece of cake for me. This current stuff is causing confusion and sadness. I have tons of questions!

Well, it increases the chances of a brokered convention...
I've been vibing for you constantly, bonny. I'm torn between sorry the news isn't better (and cursing my clearly insufficient vibery), relieved that your new GYN is so good, and sympathy-shuddering over the blood draw.
