Doctor's Office Visit

Do you like going to the doctor? Do you dread going to the doctor? How long do you have to wait before you are called in? How long is your consultation with the doctor? These are all very good questions.

Went to the doctor for a visit. Following me to the doctor's office was an irate patient who came on Saturday and the office was closed. The receptionist tried to explain in vain. It was a good thing another patient in waiting started a conversation with the irate patient. Pretty soon, we were entertained by the woman, and within 10 minutes we know some of her family's life stories. That is it! Doctor's offices should have an entertainer! Ya! Wishful thinking! I did not even know that I have been waiting for a half hour!

Once inside the examining room, I waited for another 20 minutes before I saw the doctor which only took 10 minutes! Then I was left in the room for another 10 minutes before blood was drawn from me! I saw the doctor for another 5 minutes and then it was sayonara! Ya, baby! My waiting was longer than my actual consultation with the doctor! Is there something that can be done? Anyone???

Oh, well....we all have to have patience....right?? After all, patience is a virtue!!!!

Computer Woes

Why is my topic, " Computer Woes?" Because there are so many things with the computer that will give you headache, especially if someone is like me that is not computer savvy! You would think that since I have been blogging for a while now that I am really good with the computer! Boy, oh, boy, you got that wrong!!! Hmmmm....let us see... in my opinion, you do not have to know a lot about computers to blog. All you need are your fingers that do the walking in the keyboard, is it not??? You do not even have to be proficient in typing...which is me. I just peck with my fingers and I get by with my typing which was better now than before! Woo...hooo! Are you serious?? You call that typing?? What else do you call it?? Pecking the keyboard??? That sounds like a Chinese dish...Peking duck!!! Yum!!! Do you want some??? Oh my gosh!! I do not know about you. We were talking about typing...the next thing I know.. we are into Chinese food!!! Ay..ya..yay....can you please be serious?? Why??? This is a free country..sort of... so I can day what I want to say! Do you have a problem with that??? Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Testy! Testy! Testy! Now, why are you talking about toast? Do you want me to toast a bread for you??? Yikes!!! Are you hungry??? All you can think of is food!!! What do you want me to think about??? Ha! Ha! Ha! Oh, oh, never mind...I see your mind is in the gutter!! Back to our topic....

Why don't I learn how to type correctly?? That is really a good question. I was going to say, " What for?" Oh, my gosh! Please do not answer a question with a question! Why not??? Sigh...you are sooo crazy!!! Excuse me...it takes one to know one!!! Ha! Ha! I got you!!!

The computer was so crazy today. I was trying to post a comment, and it would not let me! It took me 30 minutes to figure it out why it was not posting! You did? Wow! Wonders never cease!! Amen, I say to that!!! Am I a genius now??? Not in a million years, kiddo!!! Oh,well.

What else is your computer woe? The keyboard! The letters are gone!! It must be because of my pecking! You are right about that especially with your long painted nails! What does my painted nails have anything to do with that?? You are nincompoop! I think you meant my pointed long nails! Painted...pointed...same thing! Not really....one has an a after p, and the other one has an o after p! Now, you are an expert in spelling!! Are you jealous??? LMAO!!! Do you even know what LMAO means? Yup! Just learned that last month! Wow! You are getting there too with the lingo!! Of course!!! Phew!!! You are sooo proud! Would you not be also if you learn more computer slang??? I rest my case!!!!

Computer woes, indeed! More like a nut case!!! Ha! Ha! Ha! Time to say so long... farewell.....nighty night!!!!! Have a great day tomorrow!!!

Breakfast

What is breakfast? It is the most important meal of the day and the first meal taken in the morning after a night's sleep.

Why is it important to eat breakfast? It keeps your metabolism running since your body is not into a " starvation" mode. And if you skip breakfast, you tend to overeat. Right?

Breakfast does not have to be elaborate. It can just be a hard boiled egg, whole grain toast and fruit juice. It can also be a bowl of whole grain cereal with berries and low fat milk. Sounds good? Sounds too healthy for me! What do I want for breakfast? A Western omelet with hash browns, toast with jelly and coffee! Yummy! But you cannot eat this everyday or you might turn into a big giant person!

How about oatmeal? I heard that many people who eat oatmeal for breakfast regularly has lost weight! I can eat oatmeal once but not everyday! Or how about oatmeal raisin cookies with chocolate chips??? Yum!! You are deviating again from the topic! Oh, oh, sorry. Back to breakfast.....

How about cereal? It is okay as long as you eat the healthy kind! I read that the cereals are losing business. Is it because people just get their breakfast from the fast food place?? It is faster and maybe cheaper? Faster maybe...cheaper...I doubt it.

Well, folks, be sure to eat a healthy breakfast tomorrow! It should include protein and plenty of fiber to satisfy hunger and keep us feeling full until lunchtime! Comments, anyone???

Eat a healthy breakfast....and have a great day!!!!
