Hello Afternoon!

Well I've been meaning to post all morning, but the morning got away from me real fast and now it is afternoon. Not too much going on here except trying to find a decent Ophthalmologist close to us that specializes in diabetic eye care. Not having much luck but today the hubby picked out a Dr. in Amite, LA who has no diabetic eye specialties and I picked one out in Hattisburg, MS that does have the specialty, so we are at odds on this one. Hanging it up for the day because I have enough on my own plate to deal with. It's another hot day here with a high of 95F. It's 94 right now with a feels like temperature of 106. I'm staying inside today and going to work on adding some things to Ebay. How is your day going? Photo Credit: Pixabay, Public Domain

I feel the one that specializes in it would be better. But he will have to decide

I think so too. And he is leading up to the same thing he had with the last eye dr. No specialty so had to be referred over for the too high protein in eye surgery. But I'm not arguing. He will figure it out sooner or later.

@wolfgirl569 He sounded determined so I will drop it. It's his choice in the end anyway. If it takes 4-5 trips to get it done, oh well.

I've been pretty lazy today, but I did go for a bike ride. Overcast today, but tomorrow is forecast to be brighter, so I may take a wander into the city

In the steamer, weather wise. Had a good day, I’ve started walking some again…slowly. My PT appointment isn’t until mid-August. Good luck with the ophthalmology issues.

Yay, I hope you get loosened up a bit with the walking. Man that is a long time to wait for the PT! Sounds about how my appointments went with the rash! Thanks! He is reconsidering now

@FourWalls Oh I agree 100% on that. It's too hot to have insulation like a brace on!!

@kareng — glad to hear it. And I don’t mind waiting. I have a list of exercises from my previous sessions. The major issue is if they want me in a soft brace…and that CAN wait because I’m not wearing more than I must wear in this heat!

Best to have a doctor who specializes in the care you need. My day is going OK so far. It's 6 am.

My thoughts exactly. Evidently he is thinking it over because he said something about it this morning. I suggested he call them and ask the questions he was pondering.

I think so too, and he stated this morning that he would look at this doctor I suggested again. Men!

95 is certainly getting up there temperature-wise. It's much colder here. We won't get anywhere near that until next summer.

Yesterday was a pretty good day. I made decent amount of money with freelancing and got to surprise she child with something shes wanted for months. Then made biscuits and gravy for dinner. Win in my book.
