This doctor seems to be prescription and bloodwork happy. This will be the third set of bloodwork ordered. She said my blood pressure was too high. I had 170 jeez louise that cuff was so friggin tight I thought my arm was going to cut off completely. You want a normal reading? Do it manually. Ugh!... Sign in to see full entry.

They weren't letting hardly anybody out of jury duty. She really didn't care. I'm sure she has heard any and all excuses and perhaps that's why she took a so sad too bad approach. The gentleman sitting in front of me has a wife with stage 4 cancer and he is her primary caregiver and he still has to... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm back from jury selection. This wasn't just any jury like for a trial but rather the grand jury. Now for those who don't know. Those selected for grand jury are to serve for a year! Not only that but they can extend it for another 6 months. It's on Thursdays and it can be maybe 2 or 3 Thursdays... Sign in to see full entry.

So far they refuse to let me out of jury duty. My only hope is that I take my medical papers and get excused. I had to go to the ER Monday. When I finished PT they took my blood pressure and supposedly it was life threatening and told me I needed to go to the ER right away. I really didn't want to... Sign in to see full entry.

I forgot I have jury duty. Not sure if I can get out of it or at least postpone it. I will make in one tournament what I would make in a month of jury duty. Right now my finances take priority over my civic duty. I will call on Monday and see what they say. I will finish my last two review... Sign in to see full entry.

Good News! Dino from the golf tournaments contacted me about working the one here in Jacksonville. I asked about the other two and he told me he can't pay for transportation or lodging. I said I have friends in those cities. So I am working all three. Not sure if I can stay with my friends or not. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Physical therapy is moving right along. My pain levels are down by half of what they were. Shock wave has been a tremendous help. She still has to adjust my ear crystals so that I'm not so dizzy all the time. The MRI for my neck shows bulging discs but minutely. She says with therapy it should be... Sign in to see full entry.

I fell asleep so early last night. Unfortunately I also woke very early. Too early to accomplish anything. The gym doesn't open until 8am. I'm not sure what I will do tomorrow and Monday since it's President Day and the libraries are closed. I decided not to go to PEN. I need to focus on my taxes. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Still having dizzy spells and back problems but they have diminished. It's no fun when it happens in the car. The poison ivy just doesn't want to say bye bye. I'm ready for it to be gone. I've been working on my spreadsheet of expenses so I can file my taxes for last year and this year. I almost... Sign in to see full entry.

After that fun visit with the booby trap I thought I would indulge in some more torture. I went to the vampire today. She got me for two tubes of blood. (I got off easy with that one). I want to approach the travel center about a book vending machine that has my books in it. I'm not sure how they... Sign in to see full entry.
