Doctors, Doctors Everywhere

My days are being spent with doctors of all kinds, pharmacies, and testing locations. Now that we have my mother with us we are going to a doctor, drug store or to get a test every day of the week, except Sunday.
The good news about all of this visiting of doctors is that I am getting some reading time. I am actually getting to read a book within a couple of days now.
I am letting all of this become a lesson that conveys the message that you can always find some good in the bad or annoying situations that you face.
I kind of think of it as finding the flower among the weeds. Do you do this?

I learned many years ago to take a book because I cannot stand the boredom of waiting, I do the same, reading a novel in a matter of days.

@HazySue they do that here local all the danged time. sometimes ya wait'n hour 'r longer to be seen. down'n temple, tx 'n e'en my gastro's office'n lubbock there's no waitin'. i can 'nderstand such if'n there'd be'n emergency 'r somethin' which sometimes arises. most oft though, 'tis coz the receptionist tends to book all patients fer a 10 minute visit. ya know, so's they can drive more folks through'n a day 'n rip off not only the patient, but the insurance companies, too? sigh....
