Runners that need some nutritional accountability

I've been glutened twice this year (in 3 months!), both at places I have safely eaten many times since 2015. I think staff shortages may be causing places to cut corners in training. But I mean really, any cook or chef should be aware of cross-contamination if celiac or allergy comes back to them. I haven't been glutened since maybe 2015/2016.

So yeah probably no one knows enough about where I live to be worried about me, but just in case - there was a mass shooting at my Kroger where I get groceries with at least 14 shot and 1 killed. We were out running at the time but on a different day my husband might have been in there so it’s scary. This is the store with the loop of road behind it which I run while my husband shops.5

Dang @rheddmobile . Sorry to hear about the 14 & 1. That happen today? I can’t imagine the kitten shock you feel having come so close or that your Dh could have been there. I remember you mentioning that you were in a rough area, not that it means this is expected in a rough area or not. Makes ya wonder just how close we really come to experiencing violence first hand daily. Y’all stay safe.
@RunsOnEspresso yuck. Sorry to hear about the glutening. I can only imagine. My guts get so inflamed from nsaids, I imagine it isn’t any better. Do you have a go to meal plan to recover? I always hate eating when my lower intestines are like bloated sausages.

Yes, today. It’s headlining my apple news feed right now, we made the national news.swenson19d wrote: »Dang @rheddmobile . Sorry to hear about the 14 & 1. That happen today?

We do live in a rough area but frighteningly this was in the middle of Collierville, which is an upscale suburb full of polite, charming people. We usually shop there because it’s halfway between our place and my mom’s place in the country, and because it’s a fancy, high-end store. My husband and I have made jokes about knowing we’re in Collierville because cars actually STOP when they see a runner approaching a crosswalk!
I had my first job at this Kroger, when I was 16 years old, bagging groceries because you couldn’t work a register until you were old enough to drink. So I have been going to this store for a lot of years.
News is not saying anything about who the shooter was, but my mom knows some people with the EMTs who claim the shooter was the sushi chef at the deli who had been fired that day. Apparently he chased people through the store, through the meat department and out the back loading dock, and into the parking lot behind the store, where at least one person escaped by climbing a ladder onto the roof and hiding up there! And others fled to the gym next door which we have a membership at. Altogether too close to home.2 -

I actually thought of you when I first heard about it this afternoon. Just haven't had a chance to get on MFP until now.
That is so scary. I can't imagine going to do such a mundane task as grocery shopping and having a shooting.0 -
@swenson19d The plan is mostly drink as much water as humanly possible. Also tend to eat more bland foods to not irritate my digestive system more.
I just hate that I never know what my immune response will be. Usually I start bloating an hour or so after so that's the first sign. Maybe TMI coming up lol In July I got a migraine and constipated. This time I got nausea and diarrhea. Usually the next day I sleep all day. Then I have fatigue for weeks. That happens every time. ☹2 -
@rheddmobile I googled it, read some of the blurbs. I figured it was an employee. They already had an article for Ms. King who was killed. So sad. It did look like a nice area. A bit unnerving that folks can be triggered to such violence so easily.
@RunsOnEspresso My colon and rectum swell with NSAIDS (not apologizing for TMI, 😉). Then my poo is pencil thin and its like being constipated. If its a prescription NSAID I get all over body swelling and redness and coffee ground blood in my stool. Seems to take almost a week to settle back down and always makes me wonder if this is like a gluten reaction. Anyway, I feel for ya. Cant be "fun".0 -
seasonal allergies are horrible.
I have a constant headache. I've also discovered that I can eat migraine producing foods as long as I am on the antidepressant... so, I pushed it a bit and ate falafels and tahini. I have babaganoush but it didn't come with pitas (what?) and no idea what to eat it with. suggestions?
I gotta get hw done.
Dh is gone today. I should stop there, he's been on my nerves. He gets anxious or experiences any another emotion and it presents as anger and nothing I do or say is right.
example: DH- "what do you think about getting the booster?" shares plans to go get it tomorrow.
me-I think it's a good idea. I'll prob get it in October with the flu vax (nursing group just mentioned not to do these together, lol unless you want to feel like crap).
DH-on about something that completely lost me about nanobots...
me-??? well, I guess I should consider myself lucky. nanobots would be cool.
DH-"well you'll spend eternity in hell."
me- *as if Im not already there? wtf just happened.
Of course, later he has to share stories from the "Bible" (quotes because I can't say that this is so), where demons possessed children in some sort of way to explain sexual abuse in a sacrificial act (I assume). I disagreed with the notion, wanted to hear no such talk of abuse. I think he isn't talking to me today.. haha, yea, peace! He can't join this eastern orthodox church unless I do (how dumb). I dun wanna, so he wants a divorce... okay pal... seems dramatic Ms. Queenie but if your serious...I'll bite. I told him I'd do it for him if that's what he wants, but pointed out that he'll tire of it in a year like everything else and I'll have saved myself the emotional the investment. I may just be a jerk to everyone so they leave me alone and he uninvites me. I dont wanna listen to a bunch of weird crap or more conspiracies. He thinks that if he speaks out against covid, the government will freeze our bank accounts. lord. I live with a certified loon. "paranoia deep destroyer" or "they are coming to take me away"... freckin' nut
So there's my rant. better out than in ya? Saved me a counseling session lol!1 -
@RunsOnEspresso I hope you are feeling better today.
@rheddmobile So sorry about the shooting so close to you and at a place you frequent. That is so scary. I don't even really know what to say.
@swenson19d So sorry about the issues with your DH. Also, I'm not aware of any such scripture. I'd ask for a reference.0 -

If it's on the internet, it's real. It is impossible to reason with him and his interpretation (bought and sold from the Almighty internet). We talked about that perhaps he needed to indulge the possibilities of mental illness. it is just exhausting trying to reason with nuts.2 -
Feeling much better today. Was able to go a little further this morning. Stomach seems to have completely settled.2
-
Yeah. Glad you are feeling better @RunsOnEspresso !1

I am here reading along on occasion, just so busy packing up the house and under a time crunch to get it done by Tuesday when the movers come. My DH is on edge too, I think it is stressful for both of us, and he is also reacting with anger directed at me (not crazy bible scriptures though thank goodness, I could not take that @swenson19d). That said he has been working on his office since last week... I have told him a couple of times I am overwhelmed and he is going to have to help me with the other rooms. Dd has been here this week and as helped by going through her things and things we thought she might want so we know what to keep and what we can get rid of. She told me last night to get rid of her bed so I can have the entire room (Yay workout room!)
Food has been all over the place but that is ok... Yesterday she and I went to a local museum I've been wanting to visit and then had a falafel wrap for lunch followed by ice cream. This morning was doughnuts! Tomorrow will be better.
@rheddmobile - Wow I read about and saw the shooting on the news. Had no idea it was your grocery store. I would be totally freaked out!
@RunsOnEspresso - so glad you are feeling better now.
@swenson19d - I hope Dh's surgery goes ok and he comes home in a better frame of mind. I also wish so many people would just stop reading/believing everything on the internet and various 'news' outlets and take a deep breaths. I think it is resulting in so much damage in relationships of all kinds.
Ok I am going back to sorting and packing... I will be done before Tuesday, I will, I will!2 -
Good morning!
Well I went off the grid for a few days. I needed it. I got an email from the DA wanting to talk, we have a deal from the defense team. Initially the DA said no deals from either side, it was life with no parole and that was it. Well, they came back with 1st degree murder with a deadly weapon, 26 to life. We talked on the phone for an hour about what each meant. He did finally explain that the "special circumstance" that would get him no parole is kidnapping. He says he can 100% prove by the letter of the law he "kidnapped" her. The law is to forcibly move someone any distance that diminishes their chance of survival or escape. They have proof he forcibly moved her 15 feet from the porch to inside the house where there was least likely chance of being seen or heard. But, will a jury see 15ft as kidnapping? So do we go with the deal? Or go to trial and see what a jury says? My mind changes everyday. I called into work Thurs/Friday and called mom's closest friends and we all talked. They are for going with the deal, I think mainly for my sake.
We take the deal and we are done. He also has 8 violations (5 being major) in the 10 months he has been in jail, so his current attitude won't help his chance of parole and he could keep himself in there for life. What I don't get...any sort of validation and maybe his family seeing the evidence of what he did (they may not come, I think I see his grandmother on zoom and that is it). But if he changes and is repentant, he can come out (I would be fine with that in 30+ years). But do I trust California? Not really. With their bleeding hearts and even more bleeding budget, they have been letting a lot of folks out early.
We don't take the deal. He gets no parole? Or maybe he does not? He is 19 years old, the jury is going to see a teenager and could feel some sympathy. We have to wait 6-9 months for trial. We have to sit through 3 weeks of testimony. I get the validation that it was "announced" to the world and a jury sees him as guilty. His family (might) be there to hear it. We have the Youth Parole Program in Cali, it says if you are under the age of 26, you are not as responsible for your actions and they could parole him anyway.
I just don't know what to do and it is eating me up inside. On a good note, in order to avoid it, I have been working more and running LOL
That is pretty much all I did the last 3 days, talk on the phone, ran some errands and cleaned around the house. I did talk to the councilor on Thursday, I got a feeling she was a bit exasperated with me.
Saturday was my ranch day and we got a lot more done. The last dumpster is filled! I also think a skunk tooted in/under the house and the back of the house is a bit funky.
Sunday was a cleaning day in the house and working on reselling. Made a decent number of sales this weekend. DH and I joke (b/c I decided to use the profits for the new house) that we earned a new toilet this month...Oct, lets aim for a refrigerator LOL.
Doesn't feel like Monday, but I have some things I need to get done before I am out next week to pick up DH and move him in with me.

@CMorning99 I must have missed the background with the young man. 19 is young and there is always hope that he get the chance to grow up, I understand the tendency for leniency and the complexity of justice. I'd think about affording him the best possible life whatever that means and not fo focus on retribution.
I am wasting my day.
I should be reading or getting ready for my PCP visit regarding my low vitamin d, weakness and back. I just dun wanna go or do anything. I haven't spent any time on violin this week. I think that last row dh and I had sent me back into a state of ... idk, deeper depression I guess. He has "recovered" from his psychotic break haha. And is being nice and took the effort to see that strong arming me into church was wrong. I was also gonna hold finances hostage if he insisted I go. He'd hate to give up that control, as much as I'd hate to give in. so, I'm holding my ace for the moment... stalling... not going to the doc because I dun wanna leave the house. okay. shake it off. I'm gonna shower and go. Then do violin and read these boring psychology theories. (or YouTube the them).
I bought Beary some rubber snakes to play with. He's been moppy- not a word I see.. moping. He's also gets indignant when I make him come in, the weather is cooler and cori isn't playing with him much. So he's frumpy. poor guy. oh well, first world problems of a house cat.1 -
That is a tough decision @cmorning99.
Juries can be hard to predict and most don't understand the law even when things are explained. They think the prosecution has to prove motive for example but thats not how it works. Motive just helps tell a story.
I think I'd go with the deal but not being in that position it's so hard to say.1 -
@CMorning99 for what it’s worth, my 2 cents based on the trial of the boys who killed the lady who raised me. The two who were older than 18 ended up getting life without parole, the 16 year old got life but with a possibility of parole. Nobody pleaded and we had to go through the whole appeals process which took years. But then, done, don’t have to think about it anymore.
One thing you want to avoid is retraumatizing yourself every time this person is up for parole. Find out what that means in the worst case scenario - if he gets 26 years and has to serve 1/3 for example that means in less than 10 years you will have to go and testify about his impact on your life in front of a parole board.
On the other hand if you can avoid a jury trial, you really really should do that. Remember that it will not feel like vindication. The other lawyer has to fight for this guy and you will have to sit there and listen to his defense which will be so wrong-headed it makes you want to break something. Also, you will have to watch as a jury is shown the physical evidence, which includes photos of the deceased and detailed explanations of the cause of death. It is really really not fun.
In the case of my friend it was first degree murder because they called in an expert to testify that her pain and suffering amounted to torture. That was not fun to listen to either. They also tried it in federal court on the grounds that carjacking across state lines was a federal crime and then killing her was killing the witness to a federal crime. My guess about your jury is that most juries will follow the law as told to them by the judge and your lawyer, and they will be looking for any good reason to convict on as high a charge as they can. But you never know.
If I were assured that this guy would not be out in ten years, I would take the plea, definitely. Trials are awful.1 -
@CMorning99 I feel for you having to make that decision. I don't know if you are a praying person or not, but if you are, that might help, and/or journal about your feelings. Sometimes, that helps me clarify things in my mind. Glad you made progress on the house.
@swenson19d I hope you have a good PCP visit.0 -
Good morning!
@rheddmobile Thank you so much for your post! My biggest hesitancy is sitting in the trial, I would be there even though the DA has told me I would not need to be except for my short testimony. When I found out I had to make this decision I started having nightmares of watching my mom die and those are bad enough for me. California law is you have to serve 80% of your sentence, so he would be in guaranteed 20 years and the DA says very few folks earn parole on the first go and I think after that it is 3 year increments. In Cali also they are also limiting the prosecutors and victim statements during a parole hearing, their argument is that they have served the set time and anything after that should be based solely on their remorse and growth. No fault in that logic I guess.
@quilteryoyo I do pray, I ask mom to tell me what she wants.
Yesterday was a mostly productive day. We are having network issues so that slowed things down. I got my report for the missing item done, I had done it initially on an old version of the form. Now I am trying to get the program manager to tell me how to route it and who has to review it. I also went out to see the 2,000th launch of the Atlas V rocket, it chose that time to drizzle so we could only hear it. Not as loud as SpaceX though, that will take the pictures off the wall.
Grey cat was having a meh day. The new meds are so bitter that he gags. So now I am trying to again contact the vet to get a new prescription...let the saga begin again LOL
I came across my arch nemesis' running profile. Long story, but I really hate her. But she would always compare herself to my running back in the day...even as far as coming to the house (she knew DH) and going through my Garmin watch. But ever since then I have had an unhealthy competitiveness (yes, I know, another box to unpack)...before I beat her in the longer distances, but she has now beat me in all distances but the 5K
That motivated me to run yesterday. Was able to do my 1.5 miles in 14:50 so better...but 2 min slower than where I like. I would love to get back under her times again, but she is putting in the work, nearly 200 miles a month. OOF.
Today we have suicide prevention training for managers, 20 years and I can't say it has helped me. It just comes down to knowing your people and talking to them and they try to teach you all these fancy concepts that change each year. Other than that, not much else pressing.
Have a great day!
2 -
The 2000th launch. That's pretty cool. Too bad you couldn't see it @CMorning99 . I'll bet your arch nemesis is not having all of the things you are having going on in her life. If she was, she wouldn't be beating you! You can get there. You just have to get through the more pressing issues right now. I think your 1.5 mile pace is great!0
-
So much going on @CMorning99 - I have no advice to give just {{hugs}}
@swenson19d - definitely go see your PCP. Hope DH stays supportive!
We got through the weekend and today without me killing DH but it was touch and go for a while... he was really being terrible and so, so angry. But everything has now been packed (we were up until midnight packing) and the packers today took less than 3 hours to finish up - they had planned to be at the house all day. Tomorrow the movers come and take it all away and the ceiling folks come on Thursday and the painters next Monday. So glad to be making progress. We are sort of settled at Hilde's, I cleaned to get out as much cat hair as possible since we are both sensitive. Hobbes seems to be ok with it too so far. I have already started cleaning out some of the 'junk'. DH said the Goodwill folks are talking about him he had gone so many times. 😂 I told him to find another location and go there for a while...
We are eating left overs for a while and hopefully then I will have the kitchen here figured out (cleaned!) and can cook more regularly.
Saw the ortho today for the 2nd opinion on my arm/shoulder. Xray was 'normal' no sign of a tear or any issue. He tested my arm(s) and concluded since I have no pain in my shoulder but my bicep is still sore and hurts on rotation, that I likely tore the area where the tendon meets the bicep at the bottom of the bicep. It is not torn through but there is evidence of the injury there. It will take 6-12 months to heal - no lifting more than 5-10lbs for a while. Lighter weight and more reps he said... I really like this doctor - same guy I saw for my tendon.3 -
@shanaber So glad you made it through the weekend, everything is packed, you're settled into Hilde's, and you're making progress. I know these stressful times are stressful on a marriage too. Glad you didn't kill DH. That's an accomplishment.
Glad you like the ortho you went to and hope the rest is all that is needed. Did you pick up more than 10 lbs while packing? 0 -
@shanaber Wow that is great that the arm is healing without surgery and wasn't a complete tear. You sound so busy with Hilde's still. I wouldn't worry about taking the donations elsewhere, let them talk. I wonder if there'd be anyone that would come get stuff, any sort of outreach?
I ate terribly yesterday. Too much pizza and stupid lava cake that wasn't even good. I'll do better today.
We finally got a little bit of rain. It has been dry for months and my yard has 4 inch wide cracks forever deep and miles long. (Oklahoma clay). My house has shifted, grout cracked and moulding needs tacked back up. Dh has the us on the list for the foundation folks to visit soon.
I stepped in one of these cracks, now a hole 15 inches deep and seemed to have subluxed a rib. I keep stretching it hoping it will find it's place again. I may opt for a massage.
Dh is off to Washington state today to help his cousins move back to Oklahoma. Flys out and drives back. I can play the violin day and night with him gone haha!. yay!
I was late to the doc appointment by 10 minutes because I decided at the last minute to go. Then they canceled me for being late. Made me sit 15 minutes before telling me so. Dh and I were sure I had 15 minutes before being canceled. oh well. I rescheduled for Monday, unless Dh is back and I have to fetch him.
Kickboxing scheduled tomorrow.1 -
Good morning!
@Shananber I had to laugh at your statement you haven't killed DH yet. It is so refreshing to know that other spouses have those feelings and it is normal. DH and I know where we don't work well together and just stay out of each other's way as best as we can. I am sure moving him this weekend might bring out some choice words though LOL.
I just had my PT appt this morning for my shoulder. Almost as same as you. I am healing, it will take 4-6 months. Another 4 weeks of PT and she is adding in Graston b/c she thinks I might have too much scar tissue and wants to smooth it out. Bring on the pain LOL
Yesterday was a neutral day. I got some things done, others not. No traction on grey cats meds, they are a hot mess in that office.
I also talked to the survey guys, another classic example of "hot mess". I spoke to the lead surveyor and pretty sure he is short a few marbles from a full bag. He is holding up our process so far, 6 months and he is still "working on it". I asked for the proposed build site to be added to the survey and he said "send me the files"...dude, why am I paying you?
I got the bill for the down payment for the bio and archeological surveys...$1,750, ouch. How do people even afford to do this without taking a personal loan?
I was officially told yesterday I am moving positions. I will take over the Commanders Support Staff...not thrilled since they manage all the annoying programs (safety, privacy act, fitness, etc). But it something I know how to do and is low stress.
Today, follow up on grey cat meds...not much else pressing.
I had BK's garlic burger yesterday, they are so good! Even with it, the scale dropped a bit. I know I am not drinking enough water though. No exercise. My old Achilles ache is coming back, I really think it is a form issue since it had months off to heal LOL. My the front of my hip is achy too...either again form or scar tissue.
Today I have a 30 min interval run on the books along with push-ups and an ab workout. AND DRINK WATER!
Have a productive day folks!1 -
I swear if you can make it through a move, your marriage can survive anything 🤣2
-
@swenson19d I can't believe they cancelled your appointment for being 10 mins late! Most of the doctors I have been to give at least a 30 min buffer but then traffic here can be horrendous when you least expect it. Hope your ribs are ok. Crazy what the drought conditions are doing. We aren't under water rationing yet but I suspect it will be coming. The governor asked for voluntary reductions and usage actually went up WTH! We have cut back watering to just enough to keep the plants from dieing but my fruit trees are suffering. I suspect I won't get nectarines next year at all if the tree even survives. I only had a handful this year and the critters took them all. My grapefruit tree has no blossoms or tiny fruit yet and it is typically well on the way by now. The tangerine is going gangbusters though.
@CMorning99 - a less stressful position is a good thing especially with everything else you have going on. I hope you get the survey stuff all straightened out. That does seem like a lot to pay for them.
How old are your shoes? When I start having recurring aches it is often because my shoes are on the edge or over the edge of having too many miles. I have a pair now that I wore for my last 6 mile run that make my problem knee ache. That pair has about 400 miles on it. I usually get more than that but I am thinking I can wear them for shorter runs rather than get them out of rotation completely.
@RunsOnEspresso 😂😂😂
We are only moving out, across the street, to have work done but, wow! Dh is also being cranky in general so it may be more than just the moving work. He doesn't want to participate in the choice of paint colors or flooring or really any of the design questions. I am to the point that he will just have to live with my choices then - tired of asking for his input.
Today I got out to run some errands. Took all my professional clothes to a charity that helps people get going or re-enter the workforce, how to dress, how to interview, etc.. I also too Hilde's wigs to a cancer rehab center where they will clean and donate them to women going through chemo. When I got home the movers were gone. I have a note to myself to make sure we move even big furniture and clean behind and under them... OMG there was so much dirt and dust! Add to that the guys doing the work started 'playing' with the wall paper and pulling it down off the walls. Not an issue because it is all coming down anyways but they left it all over the floor. Dh went over and cleaned it up because I wasn't happy. I suspect he probably told them to have at it.
We are going through and cleaning out a lot of the junk here, which was my plan. We have gotten through all the closets and dressers and taken all the clothes over and are now starting on all the tchotchkes - there are so so many!
Food was ok - I got really really hungry while out running my errands to the point I had a headache and my stomach was hurting so I stopped at the little local taco place. They make their tortillas fresh when you order and are so good. The place was busy (at 3pm?!?!) but the food is worth it and most of the people came in after me. As soon as I ate I felt better but I ate too late to have dinner so will need to have something else or I will be hungry when I go to bed... planning to run in the morning before more working on the house.1 -
@swenson19d Sorry you had to reschedule your appointment. I don't think we have a late limit, but I could be wrong. Lava cake sounds yummy. I hope stepping in the hole didn't stretch you in too many unnatural ways and you're okay. Have fun without DH for a couple of days.
@CMorning99 Glad you are moving into a position that you know how to do and will be less stressful for you. Good luck with moving DH this weekend.
@shanaber Glad you are making progress on your house and Hilde's. I agree with you, if your DH doesn't want to have any input to the design, he will just have to live with what you choose. Maybe you can look at it that he trusts your judgement and doesn't want to be bothered?0 -
Good morning folks!
@shanaber I do believe it is my shoes. But they are new (50 miles or so). But they have hurt really from day one, they are the Nike Pegasus. Everyone raved about them, so I bought a pair and regrets. I work my Brooks yesterday and my Achilles was fine. My hip, not so much, but we will see if that gets better with condition.
We are in "drought" conditions down here in San Luis Obispo County. My handyman left the drip system on the trees for 2.5 days, I got the bill yesterday, $300...That was only for the trees and my tenants showers (she does not have a washer/dryer or dishwasher). I looked at the breakdown of the bill...$50 for meter fee, $175 for water (each "tier" it is .50 cents more per unit) and we hit tier 3, and the rest were "surcharges" for using so much water!!!! I want to look up where those surcharges go, are they state? or is the GSWC just profiting off of our "over usage". They base the tiers off of previous usage, and Mom kept every bill she ever got, and she went back and noticed they had short-changed her...she fought it for awhile but it never took...and then I threw all the bills away. The well will help. Our trees are suffering too...we are getting high salt in the soil b/c of lack of water.
Yesterday went well. Nothing exciting. Couldn't quite tell you what I did though LOL.
Read about the new tax law on reselling (what I do on the side). As part of the second stimulus bill, they lowered the threshold for selling on platforms (paypal, ebay, facebook market place, etc) from $20K to $600. According to the reports, all these platforms have to start issuing a 1099-K to anyone selling over $600. I am hoping the bigger company lobbyists can get this thrown out, or they forget to enforce it. I can't imagine FB sending out tax documents.
Oh, I did sign up for garmins "adapting" running program. I am impressed with what they offer with no subscription fee. I put in that I want to start at the top of my arch nemisis' records and crush them (enter evil laugh) So 5K. I set up the program to run a sub 25 min 5K...the program politely said WTF...in your condition? Ego override...lets do this! So yesterday was a calibration test to see where to start paces...5 min "hard"...well I did 5 min "OMG I am gonna die" and screwed myself. There is no way I can hit the paces they want...Now what...restart and be a bit more conservative? Not gonna help, b/c they want me to hit race paces. So I guess I go out and crash and burn until I can.
Today? IDK...dig more into how to do the lost item routing. The program manager is pretending it doesn't exist.
Hard run scheduled this afternoon, I am sleep but today is the only time really before I head out to collect DH and black cat.

I believe Mayo has a late policy. One time there was an accident and traffic wasn't moving and I couldn't even get over to get off freeway.. I called and reception toold me the doctor "may" see me when I get there. He did. His nurse said they understand traffic can happen.
And I will say it should work both ways and I get a refund if doctor is late because I sit in lobby past appointment time, get called back and sit for another 20-30 minutes 😆2 -

exactly... I mean jeez. I did get over it and see her Monday. I have a list of issues... I have the memory of a goldfish. I hope it "just menopause". I am trying to practice violin and can't remember where the notes are... I mean crap, I knew this. Why my brain not wanna keep up and I have to relearn every friggin scale?1
