Thoughts for the day

Lots of clouds today. We may get a little moisture this afternoon.

Getting in contact with the gastro doctor has become quite frustrating. I waited the 72 hours for him to get the referral. I called yesterday and their voice mail was full. This morning I had a formed stool, the first time in 3 weeks. If the loose stools return, I’ll try again on Monday.

I’m looking forward to a quiet weekend with nice weather. All is good here.
