I only wore my Fitbit for a few hours today, but according to my weekly steps count, I walked approximately 43,504 steps. I had an early morning doctor appt to see my primary doctor today. I showed her the data from my Fitbit. She now has tangible proof that she was wrong in her notions about thinking I was not getting enough exercise. LOL, the look on her face was priceless.

I went to see her today because for the past year, I have had something on the edge of my thumb, that at first we all thought was a wart of some kind. After a year of cryotherapy, my doctor decided that they were just barking up the wrong tree. Apparently it is a corn. Why it's on the non-friction side of my thumb is anyone's guess, but I had to point out to the doctor that her theory of why she thought my cane and walking poles created the corn was just a bunch of bunk. That part of my thumb has not contact whatsoever with my cane or the walking poles or the roller walker I have used for the past few years (3). I even showed her, right there in her office, how I use the cane, just so she could internalize the image in her mind. All she could say was that it was 'curious' how I got a corn on the non-contact side of my thumb.

Again, the look on her face was priceless.

So I dunno, this thing about doctors. I have my own ideas about how they arrive at x, y or z answers.


I wish I could wave a wand over everyone who isn't feeling well and somehow make them feel better. Sometimes we just have to let our bodies cycle through whatever it is that is impeding our overall feelings of wellness, I guess.


Is anyone interested in my idea that all of working America should adopt a new work schedule of working only three weeks per month, then having an entire 4th week off for holiday purposes (yanno, to recover monthly from being overworked the other three weeks); then reserving one entire month of the year for the official vacation (all expenses paid)???


Let me know if we can somehow reshape working America in a more better equipped workforce with my new idea on how to get there with the work three weeks, one week off; then the annual one month off, for vacation.

Happy Weekend Woo-Woo to all,
