Just got home from a WELLNESS VISIT with Dr Foxhall.
We are required to wear masks. Scott drove me.
His kids are doing very well. They are in 6th and 8th grade.
I received a FLU SHOT while there.
AND Denise at check-out will send me an email about how to get on the PATIENT PORTAL.

POEM
When I learned that Dylan won a Nobel
I was in shock
Good, I thought. The Academy has deviated from the norm
Tangled Up in Blue, Sad-eyed Lady of the Lowlands, Lay Lady Lay across my big
brass bed.
Lover of many women, your heart as big as the white moon whose reflection
shines in the Nile and Ganges
Notches on your belt from the billions who regale you.
