It's going OK. The Internet feed was a little bit sluggish to start with. Pages slow to load or not loading at all but, it's improved and now most all pages are loading faster.

Yes, it is starting to warm up a little bit. Bo and I may go out to the lake later today.

As to the doctor's appointment, everything checked out OK except for the Bilibubin count which went up again as it did the last three years. The doctor is going to schedule another visit in March to check on it and other stuff.

I have also been referred to once again for a colonoscopy. The last time it happened, I was 49 and Medicare doesn't pay for colonoscopies until you turn 50. I turned 50 back in April. I should be getting a call in the coming days from the doctor on a visit for colonscopy prep.

Here is what a colonoscopy is.

And, here are the instructions for the colonoscopy.

Is the internet slow everywhere? I have 2 new-ish computers and both have been running slow lately. Is the govenment messing with us? :)

Good luck with the colonoscopy.....and have a great hump day!

Colonoscopies are a necessary evil; they’re also a real pain in the...well, you know.

I’m probably going to get scheduled for my second one after I see the Doc in January.
