So, I got my son to the dr. Our physicians office is pretty much very efficient. Sons appt was at 10am and he was taken back at about 10:10. First stop is where they weigh you, take blood pressure, check for temp and ask why...

Mary McKinney @AmbiePam Yes it was. And for several years that was the only dr in our town. So it was either go to him or travel 45 minutes one way to see another dr.

somewhat anyway. When I was at the cardiologist last week it was 134/92. Not ideal but not as crazy high as it had been getting. I expected the nurse practitioner to increase the dosage of the med but she said she was okay with it...

Mary McKinney What medicine are you on? I take metoprolol and it has helped significantly. It's still a bit high, but it's a normal high. I'll definitely take that over what it had been. I only take 1 pill at night though, and something that I've done that seems to...

My grandson who is 8 spends every other weekend with us. He is normally the best little guy in the world, but Saturday night he asked me to put Pokemon Go onto a old phone I have that I let the grandkids play with. So, I put it...

For real. The proposed policy is included in the 2025 National Defense Authorization Act. That legislation was cleared by a Senate committee which is currently controlled by the GOP. Some moderates like Mitch McConnell, Susan...

Mary McKinney I don't think it will pass, but I also feel like, if they're going to draft men, women should be drafted too.

It is already 88 degrees F out there and the high for today is 91. Whiskey is a 2 year old French Bulldog. Bulldogs are notorious for being extremely sensitive to even moderate heat let alone extreme heat. She gets mad at me when...

Mary McKinney Hopefully she will know the signs if he is overheating. I feel sorry for Whiskey, no one, not even a dog, wants to be out in this heat!-

I bent over to look under my bed to check for dust bunnies or whatever. Usually I know better but apparently I keep forgetting that I'm old and can't bend as well anymore. When I stood back up the back let me know that I am...

Mary McKinney It's not broken but the bone is severed. The finger is starting to look infected. It's swelling and splitting the skin so we will probably end up in Urgent Care. However my doctors office has x ray equipment, an EKG machine and a bone density thing. There...

Mary McKinney Yes, it's the one thing I like about our physicians office. I've never been there over an hour, even at their busiest. Our town is very small, we only have 2 physician offices. The other one is efficient but not quite as efficient at the one I go to, but I...

Mary McKinney With this heat I don't even consider cooking big dinners. I usually make something very light and very easy. Salad, grilled cheese, soups from a can, etc.

Mary McKinney I'm ready for the entire summer to be over! Me and the heat don't get along and I whine all summer, "It's too hot." The only pleasant thing about the summer is there's no mud and my joints don't hurt as bad. But I still don't enjoy it. Give me fall and...

Mary McKinney Back when we gardened (our ages have kinda made it harder to do) my husband had this huge tiller. I tried to use it once and that thing slung me around like a rag doll! Glad you got your tiller, but sorry it ended up costing so much.

Donald Sutherland died yesterday. He was a wonderful actor and I watched him first many, many years ago in one of the best war movies I´ve seen: The Dirty Dozen. He was 88 and had been ill for a long time. RIP.
