I feel guilty doing it at home because there's always so much else that NEEDS attention, so now I look forward with glee to those times that I used to "just get through" – riding in the car or on the plane, waiting for appts or for my husband to finish talking, etc.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-82512933956244211762020-02-14T14:58:23.028-05:002020-02-14T14:58:23.028-05:00"The department of vampires and x-rays,"..."The department of vampires and x-rays," LOL!

Gone are the days of small groups or practices where the doctors just received a percentage of the total take as compensation. These days, huge conglomerates do the paying and it is based upon units of care provided to patients so the more patients and the more complex cases you see, the more money you get paid. As a result, many doctors push for more efficient operations so they can maximize their patient time. My wife's rooming nurse is an angel from above and helps my wife see patients like a finely tuned Swiss watch.

Holy moley, can't believe how fast you got in and out for your annual physical. I personally think you look like such a healthy specimen that they knew they didn't have to waste their time on you. Maybe that plant based diet is a miracle way to go that we all need to try. Maybe it's that all of us sock knitters are needed so the powers that be are keeping us healthy to knit more. And more. And more. ;o) Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-91584442276930699692020-02-14T13:16:50.344-05:002020-02-14T13:16:50.344-05:00I so dislike ice.
