So glad to read that, Tom!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Hey All!
Tom, that's excellent! Yay, you!
askye, I hope the doctor can help more this time and get a handle on what's going on.
I had an unexpectedly long afternoon. I had to go for an infusion today. Normally I go on Fridays right after work, but they had a strike a couple of weeks ago and they're apparently still playing catch up from those 2 or 3 days of limited staff so this was the best appt I could get. My appointment was for 1:00 and I didn't even get out of the waiting area until 2:00. Then I sat in my chair waiting for my nurse for another 35-40 minutes. And after I was done infusing, I still had to wait around for some results from the lab before they could let me go. I sincerely hope that the PTB start paying their staff better so they don't have to have any more demonstrations of their worth any time soon. (And I'm sincerely hoping I get a survey this time so I can express that to the PTB). I was planning to go to the library and the grocery store on my way home, but when I left the library I just didn't have it in me to deal with the supermarket too. I took a vacation day for tomorrow in case the infusion knocked me on my rear, so I can go to the store tomorrow. I'm not out of anything that I can't do without until then.

Yay Tom! Hope you feel better askye.
I am still thrown by the time change and expect it to be much earlier than 7pm because it is still light out. I should have gotten more done today or yesterday but I did not. Heck, I still could/should but…I won’t.

That sounds like a really good weekend, Tom!
Askye, I hope the doctor can help you clear this up soon.

Our wings are not tired.
Yay for Very Good Weekends! I hope the trend continues, Tom. Love hearing this.
Askye, I hope they find answers quickly. Sending solutions~ma your way.

Another serious issue in our healthcare system is the disparity in pay at different levels. I don't know what is going to happen when they deport half of our healthcare workers.
It was a completely unproductive weekend for me. So much on the list, and nothing struck through. Brendon spent all day yesterday from early morning to late night working on my car. He's ceramic coating it which involves lots of steps. He has it at the school where he coaches in the maintenance area. It is still there as apparently there is still another polishing step to be done. He'd planned to do it before I drive to NY this summer, but it got pushed up after a shopping center sprinkler system assaulted the car. Nasty stinky well water sprinklers. I'm sure I wasn't the only person unhappy. Big white spots all over that were a pain to wash away. The ceramic coating with help a lot with that kind of issue. In theory.

Speaking of cars, I am not in the market for one, and I usually don't notice them much (the last car that caught my eye was a McLaren in the grocery store parking lot, and Plei had to tell me why I was looking at from the picture I snapped, ha!), but the Kia K5 is a nice looking little sporty car. FWIW.
