Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I miss rowing, but my knees won't hold up to it these days. Ditto running. (My knees were always fairly shitty because genetics, but at least when I rowed crew in high school I had the benefit of being 17 and in shape. I am...no longer either of those things.)

Our wings are not tired.

Health~ma all around.

Been a full day since DH went to his doctor and they still haven't sent in his prescription. This is not good. His former doctor retired. All my customer doctors are specialists, mostly cardiologists, so not so much with PCP stuff. We went with one close by that has great reviews. May be back to the drawing board.

I went to my PCP yesterday and got bloodwork and all my lab results were kind of crappy. And I’ve been eating so much oatmeal! Stupid aging and genetics.

To be fair (to be fair) my “good” cholesterol is pretty great.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

surgery is still surgery and spine stuff is just terrifying.

Truer words... I haven't addressed my issues which are increasing in needing to be addressness.

All the best to your Dad, msbelle.

Good to hear, msbelle.

In my corner of the medical world. -- we're going to try gabapentin, with a check in tomorrow via phone... well, app... to see how it works, and if not sufficient, an Rx for Perc in the wings -- I have a week long group of work meetings out of town all next week, so I needed a back-plan in place.

Hoping the gabapentin works. Good talk with her. Sucks that I can't take anti-inflammatories, basically.

Now I'm having a burger at my local diner, as my reward for something. And because very hungry.
