Follow up

Spent my morning yesterday having a follow up with my surgeon. Nothing to report, just doing it to keep my disability insurer happy. My walking seems to be getting a little better and you do a bit of it at the clinic. Walk in, up to the second floor, check in, then down to the basement to x-ray, check in again, then off to get x-rayed in various positions, then back to the second floor to check in again, then down a corridor and wait for the doctor. It is a large clinic complex with a lot of walking. Nothing new except this time I did all the walking with canes which was hard. Progress I suppose. 

"Power Wagon"

When a Dodge Power Wagon was a "Power Wagon" and built tough. Pretty sure this is the 1947 model.

Snow and other issues

 

Snow arrived. It will soon disappear. Winter fights with fall until winter wins enough to take hold. October proved to be an expensive month due to a lot of bills popping up. Furnace and hot water tank got serviced before winter hits with full force. Winter tires. Vehicle registration. Just a lot of miscellaneous bills that happened to hit in October. Lots of stuff affected getting out.

My disability insurer has now got me on my third case manager this year. I guess there must be some kind of turnover. The problem is that this one wants me to make an appointment with the surgeon who operated on me for a follow up. I just had a follow up three months ago, I did not magically get better in that time. To keep my disability insurer happy I have an upcoming appointment for a full set of x-rays and meeting with the doctor. I feel this just wastes everyone’s time.

Nothing much happening until something happens.

Fall post

One last ride on the motorcycle and it got stored. Winter tires go on tomorrow. Seasons change and I am looking forward to next spring.
