All things being equal, they aren't . . .

I finally managed to get myself organized enough to get an appointment to see my new doctor on Friday morning. I'm almost out of syringes, am out of BC, need a new migraine script and need my insulin refill put in the system. *sigh* How on earth do we actually get to the point where we manage my health when we are so busy managing these prescriptions instead??? As annoying as it is for me, it must be frustrating as all hell for medical practitioners.

I'm saddened to hear that Harry Morgan has passed. He was a constant presence in my childhood and for a time in my childhood, I confused my grandfather with Colonel Potter, I knew my grandfather had been in the Army so I thought Col. Potter was based on him - they looked and acted very much alike - both were short, commanding, humorous and gentle in turn. Both were efficient, respected and adored by those who knew them. Even after I understood that they weren't the same man, watching MASH was like watching my grandfather at work. Thankfully, Grandfather was charmed by this and drove me up to Zane Grey's cabin, bought me his books, and watched MASH with me, I still adore Zane Grey's books. The Dude Ranger is my all time favorite, though Under the Tonto Rim is a favorite, as well.

Happy Trails, Mr. Morgan, you will be greatly missed. We will not see your grace and goodness again, I fear.
