36 days until spring. With the temperatures finally moderating, it gives me hope that yes, spring will come one day! lol In addition to my doctor leaving the practice, I found out yesterday that my eye doctor is closing her practice. I have been going there for about 30 years, long before she took over the business. There is a possibility that another doctor will be taking it over...we shall see. If not, I need to find two new doctors. Breakfast - Granola bar Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Stuffed cabbage, mashed potatoes, corn and peppers Dessert/Snack - Nature's Bakery Brownie, unsalted peanuts, 70% dark chocolate Dinner - Turkey/vegan cheese sandwich, veggie straws, raspberries What did you eat yesterday?

This is the serious problem aging, all our doctors retire and we have to find replacements.

Neither one retired. The one doctor is going to another job; and the other had to give up her practice. I don't know why; but she was very upset.

I agree with Anna. Finding new doctors who we like and trust can be overwhelming.

Fortunately the one doctor mainly just renews my prescriptions; and the eye doctor doesn't have much contact with you. I go once every 6 months; and the girls in the office do most of the testing, etc. I only saw the eye doctor for about 5 minutes.

@LindaOHio I recently made our eye appointments - we go together and are seen separately, but the assistant does a few tests and our optometrist spends a good 20 + minutes with each of us.

It's a bit sad when we have developed good relationship and then the doctor retries.

Fortunately with either of these doctors, it won't matter much who replaces them.

Ah-ha! I had a chicken taco salad instead of the taco! More of the usual (tomato soup instead of chicken vegetable soup) for dinner. Peaches, yogurt, fiber, applesauce, oh my!

@FourWalls I'm glad to hear it. I've been tired and down. Lost interest in just about everything. I'm missing my hubby a lot. Sorry.

Wow having to find 2 new doctors certainly isn't fun. I hope whomever takes over you like and you don't have to go searching for new doctors. Last night we had rotisserie chicken and it was so nice not to have to cook a big meal and just add some sides (sweet potatoes and cauliflower). Now we have plenty leftover for sandwiches or another meal.

I'm hoping the eye doctor's practice is taken over by another eye doctor. There's a possibility of that. The other doctor...I think I can get another doctor in the practice; but I'm hoping he/she takes TeleHealth appointments too since the office is quite a drive. We shall see!!!

I ate leftover lasagna for breakfast yesterday morning and ate a turkey and cheese sandwich before we left for the bogus doctor appointment yesterday afternoon. I microwaved a chicken and biscuit for supper last night and ate a fiber brownie for dessert. I drank a bottle of Mountain Dew when we were driving home yesterday afternoon.

Remember the song I'm in the Money"? Well, I'm into the food: a typical menu with nice crispy ridged fries, piece of kielbasa wrapped in bacon, the later ice cream sandwich and Ding Dong, and finally ham sandwich with diced tomatoes and Italian dressing.

Finding new doctors isn't any fun at all. There are a heap of doctors at the practice I go to and frankly I'd be happy with any of them.

@LindaOHio Due to health reasons, I have to eat donuts in moderation.

Ouch, sorry to hear that...it's hard when we get used to someone for so long and then they leave. Hopefully finding new ones won't be too hard

Finding 2 doctors will be a bit of a pain no doubt Not so much the finding them But wondering if you will like them I don't like my doctor so I never go I like the eye doctor, he is cool, he has a motorbike so he gets it. I hope your new doctors are good.

I'd be more concerned if it was my Primary Care Physician that was leaving. I have more dealings with her than the other two doctors. It will be OK.

I had Chobani protein yogurt, and steak fajitas (for lunch and supper). I hope someone takes over her business, and you don’t have to change.
