That is definitely a sign to log off Teppy!

Today was slightly slower at work so crossing my fingers I can get a bunch done tomorrow—I didn’t get much done today (though did tick off 2/3 of an onerous task) but hoping getting a chill day means attacking tomorrow with some gusto!

Happy 25 to Mac. Our grandson, same age, is now living with us, working and saving toward a place of his own. For reasons, that may happen later than sooner. He is a terrific housemate. He cooks dinner, he collects dirty dishes, washes them and puts them away. He walks the trash to the dumpster, changes his own sheets and does his own laundry. We're not in a hurry for him to move out, actually.

Everybody with access issues to medical care, my sympathies. The main reason I stayed at my office job as long as I did was family health insurance. When I did quit we had some adjustments to make, including a savings account for medical reasons, and reducing medical care to absolute necessities. Our kids were working and handling their own health care, and it was nearly 20 years Himself and I managed completely without, until retirement and SS. Having health insurance has been a revelation and a relief. Our local hospital provides excellent care and has a specific care center for seniors, so we appreciate tailored care for aging bodies--and minds.

I was bummed when Amazon bought One Medical, but the services, appointment availability, ease of communication, and response time are too good to let go; I've got too many issues to play anymore. Plus I love my main doctor there. She is the best.

I need to regain my motivation for everything stat. It has been a foggy month and a half, and I've been kinda cranky, tbb. Mostly internally, but still. I need to spend mornings or afternoons working at an outside location, for a few days a week, I think. Get out of the house.

Oh no, Jess! How awful, I’m so sorry.

Good God, Tom, prescribed the wrong dose and hasn’t fixed it?! Argh.

I get One Medical for free as an employee, I might as well give it a try

I hope you find it as easy and useful as I do.

Our grandson, same age, is now living with us,

That truly sounds win-win.

So, be impressed, my condo neighbors started a Mahjong night last week, and tonight was the second session. Only one person knows what she is doing and she is teaching the rest of us. I won the first game tonight! Of course I had to check with her to be sure I was reading the card right because it is absurdly complicated, but she goes from person to person giving advice and answering our endless questions. It is more fun than I expected. None of us are at all competitive so it is a lot of fun.

So my new PCP has been ignoring my electronic message, so this means I have to actually get on the phone, talk to humans, and try to get my prescription (which ran out today) refilled. Wish me luck.

I'm sorry, Tom. May the call go better than anticipated.

OK, the call went smoothly, but guy on the phone can’t do anything other than ping the doctor’s office. We’ll see how it turns out.
