    "He who knows only his own side of the case (argument) knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them. But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion"

    Good morning! How are y'all today?

    I survived my two doctor appointments. My first ride was late, AGAIN, but I got there and got in and out with a good report from the vein doctor. I was going to get a skin graft but the head nurse who was coordinating that was out sick and of course, no one else knew about it. Hopefully, I'll get that done tomorrow!

    Sally had to go in for that training on Thursday, so I was all alone. I was going to get some writing done but I found this awesome story and ended up staying up late to read it. So now I'm going to try to get some writing done today. We'll see, because I've been sucked into a 911 epic and it's good too. I've got to write! LOL!

    I have a dermatologist appointment Wednesday but Sally can take me which is good. No waiting for a ride. That's a relief.

    And that's about all I have planned out for this week! I don't have any plans for Memorial Day either, other than the fact that I don't have to go to the doctor that day. Whee!

    So how are y'all doing? Enjoying the May weather or has it been terrible for you?

    I've got a sort of campfire recipe for everyone, only without the campfire. LOL! S'mores Brownies. I hope you enjoy it!

    "Understand: you are one of a kind. Your character traits are a kind of chemical mix that will never be repeated in history. There are ideas unique to you, a specific rhythm and perspective that are your strengths, not your weaknesses. You must not be afraid of your uniqueness and you must care less and less what people think of you."

    Hello! Hope you are all having a good weekend! Mine is going well so far, so that's good.

    I have two doctor appointments again tomorrow, so that'll be fun. It wasn't so bad with the appointments last week as much as it was my rides that were crazy. My ride for the morning was over an hour late, thankfully I was able to see my shrink that morning.

    Then, my ride for the afternoon picked me up and got me there on time, but it took FOREVER to get home. Had to wait like an hour and forty minutes at the doctor's office for him, then we had to go across town to pick up a lady from kidney dialysis and take her to the boonies to get her home, and then he was able to take me home. Gah. My appointment ended just before three that afternoon and I got home just after six. I was tired.

    So yeah, hoping things go smoother tomorrow. They probably will because the first doctor I'm seeing is a great doc but he has a crap bedside manner. I pray for one of his PAs to take care of me. Surely Fate wouldn't make me wait on rides and deal with his ass in the morning?

    My dermatologist appointment went well too, except for the fact they forgot to call my new meds in and then they aren't reachable until tomorrow. So that's kind of annoying. Oh, well. I shall survive!

    Other than that, the week was nice. We've had a cold front move in and it's gotten down into the forties at night, which I thought we were over with. This week is going to be fun, Sally has to go in for her yearly training on Thursday so she won't be here. She's frustrated because they sent her a link to do it all online and she did it and passed, and then they said that doesn't count. I don't blame her. She was up late watching videos and answering questions to get that done on her own time and now she's got to watch it all again. Blah.

    So yeah, my week is going to be weird. I hope I can get some writing done. What are you guys up to?

    I've got an interesting recipe for you today. I'm going to include a link because if you want to forage for your own ingredients, you might need the information. I hope you like it!

    "Friendship, if somebody holds out his hand toward you, you've got to reach and take it... There are too many people alone, and if you're lucky enough for somebody to want you as a friend, it's an obligation."

    "Be a student. Stay open and willing to learn from everyone and anyone. Being a student means you have room for new input. When you are green you grow, when you are ripe you rot. By staying green you will avoid the curse of being an expert. When you know in your heart that every single person you encounter in your lifetime has something to teach you, you are able to utilize their offerings in a profound way."
