We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Thrive to spite them

Go non surgical treatments!! Jesse glad you are seeing a podiatrist.

Go NYT

I've been meaning to make this recommendation for shoes -- Ryka shoes are the bomb. We sell them at work and I had heard good things and fiy bought some sneakers. So comfortable. And the toe box is a little wider so my toes have more room . I have had issues finding new Vionics since the toe box is narrow.

And the Rykas are cheaper. They are apparently designed by women and for women or I guess female bodied feet.

I didn't get the ones I saw recommend for plantar fasciitis but another walking pair and I had no food pain or anything the first day I wore them. They make boots and other styles

I am limiting my screen time but I need to stay connected and stuff. I'm using my screen time for you guys, looking at cat pictures, and reading comfort fic . But in small doses. I need to get my kindle out and see about getting fic on that I think it is easier on my eyes.

Had a telehealth appointment with my meds manager. She said I was handling things well and she could see a difference. I told her I would let her know if there was anything from neurology when I finally see them she would know .

Have an appointment with the lawyer today at 11 and then with a new GP at 230. So long day but I'm going to nap in between.

Which of these do you think a 17 year old boy would like: [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] ? The only guidance I got from him was this website and classic Star Wars.

I liked In A Galaxy Far Far Away (the second link).

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Thanks, I'll go with that one. I sadly haven't seen my nephew in several years now, and realize I don't really know what teenage boys like anymore.

I like the idea of the second link, but the graphic design is off for me. Plus, in my mind, it's a bit fanciful, which a teenaged boy might not like. I would go with the first one.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

oh dear ... some British MP (I think he is ... a politician of some ilk) has declared that the reason the crime rate in Britain is going up is Jodie Whittaker being Dr Who. He is, of course, being soundly mocked.

Art Crawl!!!

As he should be.

Meanwhile: I had my regular 6 month check up with my internist & I really have lost 20 lbs! Although: my cholesterol has gone up. Confusing: I thought losing weight was good for your cholesterol.
