Hectic day so far —— took Mom to the far north side of Peoria to see her ortho doctor. No news really, not much change in her hip as it slowly heals.
We stopped at Dennys on the way home so Mom could have a pancake with her syrup .
I am off for a nap now to soothe my doctor office frustrations!

Finally getting around to my inbox I found a couple links from Michael T. Sadly even a Dimocrat in the White House has done little to curb the excess and greed of Wall St. And the GOP fetish with the deficit continues to ruin our country while Dimocrats sit idly by. I am thinking there is little difference between outcomes regardless which party you back. The Spineless or Mindless.
