Today my wonderful rheumatologist sent a message that she will be leaving the practice in February :(

:( Sorry to hear that, Jane.

I have a friend, a retired defense lawyer, who begins reading the news at 4:30am every morning.  By 7:30 she posts a very intellengent opinion on Facebook, often crediting other sourcesI am familiar with.  I also enjoy reading her calm debates with those that don't agree with her opinions.

Today she had this to say in addition to her longer post.

"And why are people upset that Trump keeps falling asleep in meetings. I’m upset that he keeps waking up."

;D


LOL!
