First, some COVID news from my friend Bill Drake. 10/22/20 Dear friends, While social distancing, hand washing, and the use of masks are important for virus protection, cleaning surfaces and foods is not thought to be that necessary (except for cleaning your home if you or someone you live with a...

Aha!  Finally I'm vindicated! "It is crucial to point out the difference between clutter and hoarding. Hoarding is a mental disorder in which, “someone acquires an excessive number of items and stores them in a chaotic manner, usually resulting in unmanageable amounts of clutter”. Howard agrees: ...

Doggone it - I missed it!  I was going to do a big milestone entry for Day 200, but I got sidetracked yesterday & didn't.  Woke up with a headache -- the first in a long time.  It took a sinus headache pill & a pot of coffee to get it to go away, so…

It's been a hectic few days!  I called Computer Guy last Tuesday and set up an appointment for him to come & transfer files, etc. from the old dying computer to the spiffy new computer Friday.  Which gave me 2 days to get the office in some kind of shape.  This poor room winds up…

Patients become offended when you tell them they are morbidly obese. My standard response is, "It's not 'body-sh...

Tried to get into my e-mail this morning & couldn't: error message said I was using a browser that doesn't support Java & I should change to one that does.  Preferably Google Chrome.  WTF?!  Everything worked fine yesterday & I don't want to change to Google Chrome -- I use Mozilla Fi...

Another hot day -- NOAA says 97 but temp on the patio is 100.  Nothing much new.  Penny was outside & I didn't realize it when I shut the sliding door to turn the AC on.  She promptly tore down the magnetic screen door down trying to get in.  The little b1tch.  I hate to…
