I named this log ‘Doctor Day’ because I spent most of my day in one doctor’s office or another. Starting bright and early, I had my yearly physical exam with my primary care physician. All good news there, so I drove home, took a nap, and got ready for the next appointment. The afternoon doctor appointment was for a procedure that required fasting after midnight and the appointment wasn’t until 2 pm. Thus, the reason for the nap. I didn’t have to think about food or water while I was sleeping! That procedure also required anesthesia, so I had to have a driver. Jane Woodin volunteered to drive me to Hyannis. She went grocery shopping while waiting for me to be ready to go home. Thank you, Jane! When I got home, I ate, and ate, and am now getting ready to eat again. Tomorrow I leave early for a day trip to New Hampshire, so I’m hoping to get to bed early. That seems to be an impossibility for me, but maybe tonight . . .
