why is it SO hard to get a Dr

been trying for 3 yrs!
you give your info, wait a few wks, only for them to say Dr won't accept you

tried again today, only 1 Dr accepting pts at this bldg
IF they say yes, they're already scheduling into Oct

I jokingly said "if I live that long" & they just stared at me
NO sense of humor
If you find a doctors group you are interested in, you can ask to be seen by a nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant and be put on a waiting list. I don’t understand why you can’t find a doctor to see you. We have doctors here that are always accepting new patients.

A waterwheel, instead of paddles it has buckets,

the wheel turns and the buckets that have emptied out and are now submersed

come up full they reach the top and tip out contents and proceed down again.

If the buckets do not empty they go down full and come up full,

but with the same they went down with.

Who wants to live on stale food, it gets moldy.

Update.

Wealth and poverty is a wheel that turns round and around in the world.

(Talmud Shabbat 151a)

I'm not the type to complain to companies, but I saw something that I had to speak up about. I was driving, and I happened to look up from from the YouTube videos I was watching, when I saw this on the vehicle in front of me:

iu


Are you kidding me? This guy literally does not know how he is driving and is asking me? He's driving the vehicle and doesn't know how he's doing it? I called to tell the company that in the interest of public safety they should hire people to operate vehicles who know how vehicles are operated. I guess this guy is just randomly turning the wheel and pressing the pedals and has just been very, very lucky so far.

Then the lady asked me "Are you on something?" Duh, I'm on my phone. Did she think my voice was coming through her phone by magic? Some people are so dumb.

We look for love in people that we can only find in God, He will never let us down or abandon us. You can give your all to a person and they can still let you down, they're only human, flawed & imperfect. Loving people hurts but we are called to forgive and carry on.

This weekend went by fast. For some reason I feel really calm right now.

Was going to get a haircut, but I've been putting a lot of hair gel on, and it's so thick I think it looks kind of nice.

My father is in the hospital. Last time he checked into a hospital he nearly died.

He's always so stubborn too, waiting to go into the hospital at the last moment. A few years ago, he could barely go up the stairs and still refused to go until my mother begged him. Sadly, I think he wants to die, I mean he pretty much said he was disappointed for his own selfish reasons that he lived from his last major health scare.
