How very strange.

It seems that I have a new doctor.  I just received a call telling me about the new arrangement, and asking if I wished to make an appointment.  Just to make sure it sticks, I arranged an appointment for early next year.  It does seem as if... never mind.  Reality, I think, was just folded, altered.  I always worry, when getting a new doctor.  I would like to ask how it could be worse, but asking such a question is akin to asking how much more pain one can endure.  I know, as much pain as I have endured, even enough to kill me once, that I can, in some instances, for short times, endure much more.  Simply, some questions are best left unasked.  I will know more shortly.

A young local gentleman was finding tasks for neighboring missionaries.  I was not terribly ready for company, and yet... usually take the opportunity when it is possible.  Raking, I suggested.  Not the whole yard.  Even just my yard is a bit much, with the field?  No, just the front yard, and to have piles of leaves.  I went to the garage and found two more rakes, one of which I used.  I have mentioned that I can help, and like to help, when I can think out of my box or others can do that part.  After we finished, he asked about other tasks.  Ah!  Help organizing the wood behind the shed, and neatening that area.  Friday, early afternoon, it was suggested.  I will have hot cocoa, and maybe some other treats ready.  I would love to bake a pie but I just don't have that to me.  I'll... think of something.  I had retained some of the treats from Halloween.  Shouldn't have, but I did give the vast bulk of them away... on Halloween night itself, for the library, to hand out in school, and such.  I really shouldn't be eating them, but actually my blood sugar, last I checked, after rising to 250 when eating rightly, dropped 40 points after I gave up and indulged.  Yeah, don't know.  Still, I gave as much of that stash away in thanks today as I could.  Crazy kids... all of us.

I keep trying to figure out visits to this page.  Between the various systems for checking there is no agreement.  Further, the areas of difference don't make sense.  If some section of them could be seen to be problematic, they should show up as a bulk, if not obvious at least teasably findable missing group.  It doesn't work out that way.  What is missing is the bulk, not the spread.  I have my visits set to not be shown, but on the site that suggests the most visits, taking out all those visits that use Firefox, and the numbers remain unchanged mostly.  FireFox is only 4% of visits.  I seem to be getting 55-65 per day, depending on which site is checked, with very on-site page jumps.  I don't know.  I'm not sure any of them can be trusted.  It's all... odd.  Site Meter, according to my checks, shows up as an untrusted site to visit, beyond that.  I'll keep trying to figure things out.  Oh, and no, I don't try to figure out who, when, or such, regarding visitors.  Most of you don't show up as having visited in any way that is discernible, identifiable, by my systems anyway.  Oh, but the Russians no longer visit.  I am not sure if they were really Russian or if those were engineered to appear to be Russian visits.  They might even have been Google trying to get visit numbers bumped for their marketing or other such reasons.  With 15-20 hits lasting moments, I just never took those too seriously.

Dang it!  Now I know who had the heart attack.  He's a really decent man.  I was praying for him and family anyway.  But... now that I know who...  I can't do more than pray, and with my social standing and such I stay away.  Just hate to see the good ones go down.

I can't get to much, but... At least there is company.  And dinner will be coming shortly, going out to pizza with the young ladies tomorrow night.  And some things are being arranged and rearranged.  And I am staying on my medicine better, mostly.  Later.  :)
