I'm trying, but it's hard. Can't work out with the trainer because of hip pain. Getting adjusted by Dr. Lenny. Had an MRI (yikes!!!) on hip which showed no problem. Had to go to endrocronologist (another first) because of CAT scan results. Have to go to hospital on Thursday for aspiration=needle in neck to get cells from thyroid.
Tell me a funny joke please.

The other day was my first ever visit to a chiropractor. Today I receive my first ever welcome from a doctor---said chiropractor.
Nice.

Did errands, stopped at the library,etc. Went out at 8 and watched Patriots/Jaguars. Well played.

in my 68years have I ever gone to a chiropractor. But beginning next week, I'll go on Tuesdays and Thursdays for three weeks. The office is wide open with three tables for patients and an old dog wandering around. I hope these treatments will help my various aches.
(xxxx fingers crossed)

Mayor to Mingle

New mayor of Philadelphia, Michael Nutter, opened City Hall Philadelphia yesterday
from 4-8 PM to greet citizens. There was also a food tent and live entertainment. I got
there at 3:30 after a stop at the farmers' market. The line was already hundreds long.
Fnding the handicapped entrance and using the regular tactics produced nothing.
The fact that I had a carryall further prohibited my entrance.
So I walked among the crowd taking pictures and talking to people I did and did not know.
The Kucinich tee I was wearing also drew a lot of attention.
After an hour, I gave up and crossed the street to catch the bus for home.

There were Philadelphia favorites and other
delicious foods that I could see through the
windows. Couldn't go in because one entered
from inside City Hall after shaking the mayor's hand.
