grrrrrrr grrrrrrrr grrrrrrr I schedule rspite care for the day. schedule my your latest thyroid med change is fine talk and plan to have a full day to me myself and catch up on my sleep since my yesterday doesn't always end when her head hits the pillow then pick her up before heading to running amuk101 final test( plug for your class wannabe).
Knowing it is Vets day I route my drive arouns the parade route taking the interstate and forget my exit and see a nice vaction in Gatlinberg coming into focus.grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr exit and drive back to my exit.
running really late I remember the parade and take the alternate surface street route the paper recommended motorist use. Some wannabeadriverofabigrig decides to back an 18 wheeler into a 2 story parking garage up the ramp blocking all 4 lanes of traffic. doesn't fit pulls forward and back with his crew directing him. traffic tries to go around and ground crew blocks only open lane of traffic. sit 15 more minutes finally wannabedriverofbigrig yields to wannabeadriverofbigrigtoo and process starts again. 15 more minutes and sirenns can be heard. wannabe2 jumps out and argues with wannabe1 wannabe1 jusmps in and backs up more. crunching can be heard sirens are closer. traffic again tries to go around ground crew stops. cops arrive on foot arms wave cops look arms wave cops look finally wierf tools appear and big rig is being lowered cars try to go around ground crew stans in front of cars cops argue and make ground crew move. finally cops direct taffic around rig and I get to see truck has scraped roof and is stuck.
Arrive docs late apologize only to find out doc is even later. Sit with many mnay coughing runny nosed folk praying no germs find my weak points.
Finally my turn oops up 3 pounds on docs scale since April.
nurse takes vitals, nurse retakes vitals. nurse leaves. other nurse arives takes vital. retakes vitals, leaves new BP machine brough in ( great the trafic jam has elevated my BP I'm thinking) nother nurse checks vitals. leaves doc comes in checks vitals looks at labs and announces what has happened in the last 6 months to cause this?
