We don't even have that level of protection at Tinker AFB. The only thing they have done is set up the pharmacy driveway as the only way to drop off or pick up prescriptions. I just read a good book on my tablet and the time goes quicker. I can also vape at my pleasure since I'm in the Jeep.Hola ..
When I get my 6 month checkup, I always spend the better part of a day at the VA .. if you wait around, they will run the blood tests and make them available to the DR ASAP ..
Well, the 6 month checkup went fine, I guess I'll be around for another 6 months .. potassium level was a bit high, but the rookie that drew my blood had a hard time hitting the vein, which can cause a false high potassium ..
Said good bye to my DR of 20 years .. he told me he'd just had enough and was going to teach a few classes at Wash U, we talked for about an hour .. he's my age, and he's on Social Security already and now he'll get his pension .. I'll miss him .. his long time nurse will be gone in 6 months ..
I pulled up to the VA this AM and it was downright disconcerting .. they had concrete barricades up in order to divert traffic flow thru a maze to a central drive thru, where a series of questions was asked and you were issued a wrist band to prove you'd gone thru it as well as a fresh mask .. free Covid nasal swab tests on the spot, I passed on that ..
Several Regular Army, not National Guard, were around the entrance area, they were armed, as well, a Humvee with a mounted 50 caliber was visible .. I don't know what they were expecting, but they were certainly prepared .. kind of looked like the movie set of a disaster film ..
Entering the hospital, I was wanded, I should have left that Swiss Army Knife in the truck ..
It is good to hear that you were able to get in and you also received a clean bill of health. I'm still scratching my head on the level of security. I had at first thought they may have gotten a creditable threat alert until you mentioned that they had the appearance of having been set-up for a while.
On one trip to the county courthouse to pay taxes, I had to take a multi-tool back to the Jeep that I had forgotten was in my backpack.
I get the flu shot every year. My Dr keeps track of all shots and tests. Eating the leftover candy is why I only get candies that I like. I know it is supposed to be the other way around but it is my life.Hola ..
That is, again, so weird .. I got my flu shot yesterday as well ..
Rainy still, it's definitely making up for the dry as a bone last couple of months .. supposed to end soon and then it's clear sailing for a while ..
Don't expect much of anything in the way of Trick or Treaters this year .. my area was never really a hotbed of activity anyway, and now, with all things considered, I may have to eat those Reese's Cups and Snickers all by myself ..
The sun has come out and the day looks to be improving nicely so I think I will go out and see about cutting up some limbs.
