OMG!! Not my God!! I don't have one.

I just remembered. But, I've changed doctors, now that is worth talking about. This one is much younger and it seems, much more serious about her patient's needs. I strolled along to my usual six monthly blood test, the usual readings, why waste money seeing the good doctor? Not this time. Apparently my high cholesterol and matching high blood pressure needed to be attended to. But why? I have never felt so good in my life!
But, I didn't realise what GOOD was. So I can recommend an hour with the CV (cardiovascular) experts on the treadmill and attached to ultrasound machinery. It is great exercise and how refreshing!! And, $700.00 lighter I skipped home to spend the afternoon sleeping like a baby.
So why did I spend the rest of the day writing my will? Be Prepared!!! If you don't the Liberal Government might use all you've worked your butt off for all those years, to reduce their deficit. And who would want that?
So I hope I have put a few smiles on the faces of my offspring. But as my partner says....DEAD IS DEAD!!! So who cares? I do. My next appointment is Friday....for the good news? I hope so!
These photos are of my two friends in Toodyay. The one with her head on the ground lost her head many years ago but for some reason I keep her in my garden. I have seen the original sculpture in Milan Italy. So maybe that is the reason.
The fluffy little house spider I always give a good talking to along the lines of ...'You can't stay here hiding in the rolled up table cloth. Your colours don't match the decor. So nick off!!' But, she makes such a good impersonation of being dead that I'm the one who takes my own advice... throws the cloth back over the spider's head and nicks off till next week.
But I remembered, my mother always had a better way...a screwtop jar, lid removed, hold it over the spider, slide it into the jar without damaging its limbs, slide the top back and rush to the closest bush to toss the visitor clear of all humanity. Now, all life is precious! Is it not ?
