There’s a red-wing blackbird singing nearby. :-)

I took a taxi to the hospital, registered, and was in time for my appointment. Half an hour later someone came out to tell me that no cardiologist would talk to me because I already had one, which they already knew. Then I was told by several people that this was all my fault somehow, and that the computer had made a mistake. Very perplexing. (thinking)

Weird. I just got a call from my rheumatologist’s office saying I should see a cardiologist about yesterday’s tests. I’m seeing a “consultant” about it this afternoon.

I spent the day in the hospital getting nuked. A cardiac stress test without the treadmill. Fortunately the chemicals were counteracted by coffee. Then I registered to have my knees x-rayed and the clerk kept insisting that I’d missed my morning appointments. (doh)

Snow! It’s good to have a touch of winter. :-)

I just remembered where I packed my slide rule! Now to remember where the box is. :-P

Good morning! The weather this weekend isn’t quite as bad as advertised.

After several days of “spring,” “winter” is making a comeback. I missed it all while taking Benadryl. :-P

What a good idea!
“For Hana McConville, a day or two of rest after giving birth wasn’t enough. In her culture, it’s not normal for mothers and parents to be discharged from the hospital so soon following childbirth. That’s why she decided to found Alma Care.“‘Alma Care’ postnatal retreat opens in Toronto | CTV...
