I know of Baroque music, but I don't know what makes Baroque music Baroque music.

Good morning, friends.

"If it ain't Baroque, don't fix it," I always say - and have said.

Yesterday was hell/ My printer died. Two years ago, just before my surgery in June, Stella climbed up the bookcase next to the computer and brought down a ton of books on top of the printer. The result was a broken tray, and my fear the printer was dead. So I went onto eBay, found the same model and purchased it. I asked the vendor to ship it on the day I had surgery so it would either arrive just before or just after I got home.

After buying the nerw one, I discovered I could still use the old, even with the broken tray, so I continued to use ir. The new one arrived, I set the shipping carton aside, and for two years stumbled across it on occasion. Yesterday morning, while I was printing out recording schedules, the printer gave up the ghost. So I had to drag out the one from two years agio and hope it was in good and workable condition.

It was in greast shape, I removed ink cartridges from the old one and inserted them into the new. I put the old printer into the new one's carton, set up the new one, and tried to print. Nothing happened. So, I played withanything that said "printer" or "HPdeskjet" on my apps, my system preferences, and then in frustration I called Joshie, since he is a computer wiz. He said, if it's the same model, it should be okay. I told him I would call down, watch my soaps, and then get back to it. I restarted the computer, and lay down with Stella to watch our soaps.

At 2:00, I tried to print again and nothing happened. I did some more putzing around with the apps and systepm preferences for printer. I was informed there was a "media jam." WTF? I still have no idea what I finally did, but the printer sprang to life, and I could print my three tentative schedules. Hopefully, this will be the first printer the cats to not try to kill.

I wish that whoever takes out Putin will come to the USA and take out Ms Lindsey Graham, Tom Cotton, and their dumb ass ilk. These creeps, and several other GOP representatives and senators are too stupid and narcissistic to be allowed near a government position.

Now that I have my printing done, I can actually work on recording budgets today.

Yesterday, I had a five-hour journey.

I travelled to North Augusta SC for a visit with the ENT. It's a 32-mile drive, but the roads were not crowded, and the trip was pleasant enough.

I was a bit early, so I did my Wordle. I finished just before they called me (early) to start my appointment. They give you tests....breath tests. One such test is to blow into a tube and watch a little girl with a ball leap over a chasm. I got her over just fine.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #25 on:** March 24, 2022, 07:03:23 AM »

The next test was a row of lit birthday candles. I had to take a deep breath and then expel my breath with enough force to blow them all out.

There were three candles on the far end that simply would not go out even though the 12 or 13 candles ahead of them went out immediately. I took that test three times.

I learned the doctor wasn't impressed...that I exhibited diminished lung power from my first visit (and I didn't do that test the first time). So, I had a 15-minute session with albuterol...inhaling and exhaling...to open my lungs.

After that, I took the test one more time. I was informed I had a 13 percent improvement over the previous test. Still, the final three candles did not go out.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #26 on:** March 24, 2022, 07:09:09 AM »

The end result was that they figured the meds they had given me weren't getting the desired result, so new meds were prescribed. As it turns out, the ENT has me on five new meds!! Of course, they aren't all ingested. One is an ampule I break open and put into my Navage with a salt water capsule to clean/treat my sinuses.

I also have two inhalers, and two new pills.

My pharmacy is WalMart in Batesburg SC. That is where I get all my non-VA-provided meds.

While I was at the ENT, they sent the prescription to both WalMart and the VA (which will take nearly two weeks to get them from the VA).

I left that office and trekked to Batesburg. It was interstate most of the way, but an additional 24 miles off the interstate. I saw countryside I had not seen before. Batesburg is 20 miles from Johnston and in the opposite direction from North Augusta.

Once there, I verified they had received the prescription, etc., and was asked to come back in 20 minutes. That was fine. I looked around, shopped a little. And when I got back they had two of the four meds I was hoping to pick up.

They needed a day to get the other two, so...another trip to Batesburg awaits me this day.

That boring story is done. It was my day yesterday, and I was too tired to write about it after getting back home.
