Wordle and Phoodle 4

Apparently no one won the Big Prize last night. Only 2 paltry 1 million dollar winners in Delaware and Michigan.

My Dr is recommending Ozempic for T2D.  I've been reading about side effects and things like that.  I'll try anything, but this seems like a lot of side effects.  I realize medication reacts differently for everyone.  I'll probably have a go at it and see what happens. 

I’ve been reading some of these stories, too. I’m on Maunjaro, which has helped. But it also has its drawbacks. I have lost 45 pounds and kept it off. So far. But getting the prescription filled is another problem since the supply is scarce.

The cardiologist I saw last month took me off glypizide and put me on Jardiance.

My free COVID test kits from the government are arriving today.

When is the drawing?

I hate what companies do...."improving" things and making them "better."

I always say BETTER FOR WHO?

I'm up!  I'm up!

Went to bed shortly after midnight, and now I am up at 10:10 a.m.

Good night's sleep, too.

I could have gotten out of bed around 6, but my brain said NO.

I have two medical appointments this week.

One is tomorrow afternoon for the CT scan my ENT doctor wants me to have.  My hearing is still slowly returning in my left ear.  Sometimes, it seems normal, but other times it seems to get muffled.  Mustn't get used to that without knowing why it's happening.

The other is Thursday morning.  I get the inserts for my shoes...these are orthotic inserts to help me take pressure off the ball of my feet so I don't encourage more callouses.

All in all, each visit is a good step (ahem!) forward in preventative care.

I wish I had exciting things to talk about, but my life is about as humdrum lately as it has ever been.  I don't even have changing policies to plague me.

Of course, I am glad of that, but I know how frustrating they can be.  I am still perplexed by, annoyed with, and angry about automatic spellcheck...especially on my iPhone.

I can type a four letter word and find a three-word phrase has replaced it.  AI sucks!

God Morning - Minimum Day here at school with the first round of Parent-Teacher conferences this afternoon.  Should be fun

Have you researched the other options and asked why your doctor prefers Ozempic?

BE WARNED!!

Why everyone’s phone will alarm at 2:20 pm ET on Wednesday!

Thanks for the warning.

[Jane]

I'm going to let Bryan know since he is working the night shift and sleeping during the day.

[Jane]

The morning rudely greeted me with an Xfinity outage. They’re doing work in the neighborhood. This could go on through the day, so I can only log in over the cell phone, and posting over the phone is rarely my idea of a good time. So I’ll see yez all later!

I much prefer to use my computer.

A friend at work is pre diabetic. She went on Maunjaro. She lost 60 pounds. Problem is, the medicine is only covered for diabetics on our insurance plan. I pay $7 a month. The insurance company is giving her no discount. She pays $450 for the same prescription.

 

[Jane]

Hopefully her weight loss will help prevent her from becoming a full diabetic.

More often than not that is the case.

Good test result vibes on the CT Scan!

Good luck you are happy with your new inserts.

That's the one he mentioned.  I do trust his decidions.  One just has to remember that each person will react differently.  It's worth a try, I suppose.
