Thoughts for the day
A great spring day. I sure hope this
stays around.
I called my Dentist’s office this morning
and my dentist answered. He has closed his practice and is not selling it. He
gave me a recommendation and I called and made an appointment. I’ll see how
well is when I seem him later this month.
I called the gastro office my PCP
recommended. They need ‘at least 72 hours to get a referral into their system'.
Not what I wanted to hear. The capsules my PCP prescribed are helping a bit.
A journalist was invited online to a US
high security group chat with US high officials. I agree with many that this
was a major breech of security. It is kind of enjoyable to watch the administration
try to explain what happened. I am glad that the Atlantic journalist, erroneously,
in that group chose to keep the exact
details secret.
Nightline is celebrating 45 years on
air. Back when the Hostage Crisis started, I watched it every night. Then I
tapered off until I wasn’t watching it at all. I did DVR last night’s celebration.
I’ve missed a lot, so now I am DVR-ing it nightly.
