A few years ago their prop buyers came into the antique shop where we rent space. They were there for hours. They were buying dental related items. No one working had the nerves to ask why or what for - sometimes not knowing is better. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He asked for the names of my other doctors because he wished to confer with them.He did not know my Primary doctor but told me that he is very good friends with the other two and called one while I was still in his office. He suggested sending me for blood work that would test for every possible disease that could cause the type of headaches that I am experiencing.This will be done in two weeks .He also scheduled me for several Sonograms in his facility for the latter part of March. Between him,my Primary care doctor,my Neurologist and my Cardiologist hopefully they will find out the cause. Thank you once again for your concern. Lenny, so sorry they haven’t found out the source of your migraines yet. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone of us on the very long line had practically the same appointment time. Then they tell us they were short on people giving the vaccine!! We were not happy, but we did make some friends while waiting. We finally got done, walk out and see that there was now hardly any line That's what happened to us on the 1st shot. The weather was nice, so, even though we had appointments on a fixed time, they gave us numbers just to enter the facility, and then we swept our health cards. We waited outside, on chairs evenly spaced, and waited, and waited for our numbers to be called out to enter. About 45 minutes... Inside, it was quick. When we went back outside, the chairs were empty, nobody was waiting... we figured it was just their lunch break 😢 On the 2nd shot, we were told just to enter and swipe our cards. This time, our appointments were 15 minutes apart, we thought we'll enter together. Nooo, the computer allowed us exactly the time, so DH entered first and I had to wait for "my" time. Can't complain, this time it worked like a "clock" 😉 The most important thing is that you're done... for the time being.... Pfizer are pondering a 3rd dose, to "boost" the first two, after half a year..... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a bit of a twisted sense it isn't a bad way to send the night. The scenery alone combined with the cinematography was worth it. It is a bit "dark" but really makes one think. Thanks. I like most of the stuff that Coen Brothers do and someone else had recommended this to me a while back so I'll definitely check it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This just seems like a happy place. Your comment of leaving the guns at the door remind me of “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs” from Netflix. If you have a bit of a twisted sense it isn't a bad way to send the night. The scenery alone combined with the cinematography was worth it. It is a bit "dark" but really makes one think. It is an anthology film, a collection of six short segments combined to make a feature-length film. It's by the Coen Brothers. Here's a flavour of the six different anthologies. Says one based on true grit, that's a oldie but goodie. Had a bf who loves loves loves westerns. Return of the 7, his favorite I think. Saw all of the biggies lol. Over and over. I went to see him a few years ago, and still watching old westerns. I saw true grit when it first came out though of course. A tear jerker. That's more a parody lol. Funny. Good one.

Idk I think it's to make you laugh, like is this your first time being hung. Or what's my sentence as they are about to hang him, or the boards flipping up but yes I'm afraid in the movie the guy who pulled the gun is supposed to be dead. Parody of old westerns.

DaniDanielle Posted February 25, 2021 #9062 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Thanks Dani, so happy we are done. Just found out my son and daughter-in-law finally got appointments for Sunday. She is a teacher and he is a city worker. Now we just need my youngest daughter to find an appointment. She is only 36 but has some health issues. That will make all of us vaccinated 🙏 Marietta 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told him I would try to find a camping site available to do an overnight ....to make it more fun, plus check on the other things to make sure everything is working well. We already found out our A/C and heat controller was acting like it was haunted (would turn on and off, even though system was off). I found a replacement ($$$ 😮 )...online that Bucky is going to install. One favorite park is just 28 miles from our home, Jetty Park Campground. This is the camp and day use area that ships pass by just before they hit the open ocean at Port Canaveral, and in fact is owned and run by the Canaveral port authority. Was lucky to score a site at all. This was walking out on the Jetty pier to watch the sunrise this morning....... Bucky is not a "morning" person, is he? I can sympathize. Sunsets look just as nice as sunrises to me. Really pretty photos from a location we are all missing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clancy Brown didn't last very long..... It looks funny. And that is interesting about the iguanas Renee, and digging under the seawall, and eating fruit and flowers. They sound just like cold blooded ground squirrels, which are a major nuisance pest here. My department used to have ground squirrel control contracts with Cal Trans (highway agency) to eradicate them next to the freeway, because they would run into traffic, and people would hit their brakes and cause accidents. And with Public Works because they would burrow in to the levees and flood control channels. And with ranchers and Park Districts, because cattle and people would step in their burrows and break their ankles. So on second thought, I could probably be convinced to do iguana control. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
