I don't think I could compete with your eloquently worded description of that doctor.  I can't say as I blame you for being angry.  I get tired of hearing don't be late for an appointment, but then the practitioner doesn't have enough respect for you to be on time.  Then, zero cares given.  What a waste of time.  Sorry, man!

He has just reported a 2-day sore throat to us, :bonk:  man.

Maybe he's getting or has gotten what you had when you were all feverish.  

 

The alarm went off mid sleep cycle this morning, so I could use with a siesta right now.  I went upstairs to give the old man cat his medicine and laid down with him to give him some kitty love and nearly fell asleep.  TGIF!

This is why we've only given my mother an iPad 🤭 She's not even that old but she refuses to learn tech so we have to stick to a couple of apps and hope for the best.  My sister still lives with her, so she can help.  My niece can too - she's nearly a teenager.
