Mostly Grace Notes

 Shew. 

I do not appreciate the customer service at Dad's Dr.'s now that a new company took over his former doctor's practice. We waited an hour beyond our appointment time to go back to a room. However, the labs were great. She says Dad's diabetes is under "superb control." I fear he heard, "You don't have diabetes now." ::snort:: Everything looked so good he doesn't have to go back for 6 months. 

That's been the big accomplishment of the day...getting to the appointment 15 minutes early, waiting 1 hour and 15 minutes to go back and then having an appointment. 

We are ready to settle in for the night. 

GRACE NOTES: 

1. Reading a secular book on grieving that is written plainly and contains much sense, without the spiritualizing which can lead to guilt that one can't just "surrender it to God and move on." 

2. A wonderful neighbor, Linda, who brought our food co-op order to her house for us to pick up.  Dad's appointment set us way behind to get our things picked up and I was thankful she had offered earlier in the day. 

3. I am thankful we had gifts cards from Scott and Rachel and were able to stop at Panda Express for dinner.
