Just ordered food from Stanley's with a 50% off coupon. Through Grubhub where there are zero fees so this was a great deal. I have two more meals at fifty percent, so that takes care of Sunday and Monday.

Hopefully once the drops wear off I'll still be ok with the plugs.


Vibes all will be OK.



Thank you.  So far the irritation isn't too bad.  I really need to give these a try for at least a couple of weeks.

DR Jane, I wonder if those plugs are similar to what I got after the two cataract surgeries. I think those were steroids, and mine were working their way out after a few days so they changed me over to drops. Hope you have better luck with keeping them in!  :)

These are to keep my tears from draining and to help them stay on my eyes and keep them moist.  For the first couple of days they are can fall out if I rub my eyes.

Because my eyes were irritated and red this morning, and had been itching more than usual, I now have steroid eye drops.  They are only to use as needed, and only for a short period of time.

After my cataract surgery I was given eye drops, not plugs.

Bruce, do you have an active library card with the LA libraries?  Do they include the Valley?

How DOES one request libraries to buy books?

There is a dropdown on my library’s website that’s called Suggest a Purchase. I filled it out.

Back from the neurologist and a very confusing search for my car - somehow I ended up in the wrong lot for the east tower - have no idea how that happened but it took fifteen minutes to figure it out.

Confusing lot like when I go to the large hospital in Portland.

Watching my first Sean Baker movie, Prince of Broadway. It’s ugly but not unbelievable. I am halfway through, and I don’t like the main character yet.

Had a good visit. Definitely have Myasthenia Gravis. Tomorrow, I add to the pill count with Prednisone, some supplement, and one other thing that I take weekly - four in one day to start, then six, then eight, but only the one day a week. He wants to wait on the other two pills to see how these work. I have a phoner in four weeks for progress. Interestingly, all these new pills have zero co-pay and I think they did the other pills incorrectly and I will be bringing that up when I go to pick all this stuff up this evening.

Very good new.  Vibes you do fine with the Prednisone.

I decided to chance Laurel Canyon and it was fine all the way there and all the way home.

I do not understand how changing from the bottom image to the top image is "woke" or political  ::)

I suggested it for my library today.

If they order it, they automatically place a hold for me.  But if they don't order it, I don't think I even get a notice about that...but I could be wrong.

George, I suspect you are right about not notifying you if they don't get the book.

Friday afternoon greetings!

Elmore, did you see my note about the library ordering your book?

I did. I hope lots of readers check it out. Thanks for requesting it.

DR Elmore, I just came from Zooming to this month’s book discussion at the library where my career began.  After we discuss the monthly selection we go around and tell what else we’ve been reading.  I showed my copy of Annabelle & Thatch and said the author graduated from both Middletown High and Miami University.  Without any coercion the current director said he was going to order a copy!

Very cool!

The last 30 minutes of Prince of Broadway have been good.

LOL, I thought cracker referred to actual crackers, not a white guy.

BRUCE, FUTURE PARKING TIP:

USE YOUR PHONE & TAKE A PHOTO OF WHERE YOU PARKED!

There's supposed to be a way in Google Maps to save your parking location, and I did that, but I can't figure our how to change it!  It's stuck on the same parking place in Tacoma! :o
