My Visit to the Doctor

GoodTuesday Evening, Blog Pals:
       Watching the Kentucky primary results.  Looks like Hill's  givin' Barry another thumping in an inbred redneck state.  I'm shocked...SHOCKED, I say.  Well, ya gotta admire her stick-to-it ivness.
     Had a doctor's appointment yesterday.  As I predicted, he tsk tsked, wagged his sausage like little finger and tapped his bloated little foot at me and reminded me again how extra pounds make it harder for my already ailing ticker to function.  I said I knew and looked appropriatly chastened all the while thinking of the left over pot roast and beef noodles that awaited me at home in the fridge.  He upped my dosage of the blood thinner because my blood is too thick still and kicked me up to Vicotin(sp?) for the arthritis pain.  He wanted to give me an anti- inflamitory but they either tear my stomach up or make my feet swell. Sigh...if I ever took a pre employment drug test, America would light up.  What I can't unnerstand is why they keep asking me how tall I am.  Ever' time I go there they ask me how tall I am and write it in the chart.  Don't they ever look at what they have written?  Is it a test to see if I still know?  Like how they ask you in the hospital when you come out of anesthesia if you remember where you are and who the president is.(I was nearly tossed into the booby hatch when I answered "Dubya Dumbass, Jr.").  I don't get it and it gives one pause.  

     So then I went to Wally World  and got the new prescriptions filled and picked up a few household items.  All in all I was gone from 9:30 am til nearly 5 pm.  Was I ever beat!  It keeps getting harder and harder to do ordinary tasks like catch the bus, walk through the store without sigificant discomfort.  And collapsing upon returning home.  I slept good last night though, which is a plus.  Had some strange dreams though.  There were these Irish people having races on a lake in souped up tug boats.  I was standing on the beach watching and each of the boat crews seem to know me because they would speed by, churning up huge wakes and waving at me.  Ah, memories of a mispent youth no doubt. heh heh.  I'd like to see some shrink analyse THAT.  

    Well, its near beddy bye time so I'm gonna tuck in with a book and NPR.  
Have a good rest of the week, all.

yer why don't I ever dream somethin' good like what the lotto numbers are gonna be pal

I have been having some weird dreams lately myself. You had a very busy day. I would have been worn out too.

Bugg, when you're elected, you'll have drivers and gofers and whatever else it takes to keep your energy up so you can deal with lofty matters of state - like whether to invite the lesser poobah to dinner or not. I have arthritis too and it hurts! Vicodin is a good pain killer but when I first started taking it, I was flying! Take it easy on yourself.

Take care dear friend and try a little moderate exercise. It works wonders once you make yourself start.

That's funny that they ask you how tall you are. I've not been asked that question in many years. My weight is another thing entirely and I have to start doing what is necessary to bring it down. Hope you got a good nights rest tonight!

Ummmm--either you didn't get the ice cream or you aren't telling us or you don't want to share!!!!
When was the last time any nurse took someone's height??? You can tell them you are 6'2" or 5'3" and they just write it down!!!

Ah yes! Kentucky! Where most of the family trees are wreaths!
Seriously though, Buggs. Your medical concerns worry me. I truly enjoy your writings, and I would sorely miss you if anything were to happen to you! 55 ain't old kid. I'm 55.

Getting enough rest is job one! I had to start planning my outings for a few hours in the morning, a few in the afternoon. It's embarrassing to admit that I was slowing down. Now I spread out my errands, take a nap if I need one, and don't ever rush to get something done. Make it easy on yourself!
