Same everywhere GPs are impossible to see face to face now, I don't know what they do with their time.! Dentists are back to normal and they have to get very up close with patients, so I don't know why docs can't do the same - they are still on full salaries!
Drives me mad!!! :mad:
Yes. They are and telephone visits just aren't the same. I can't do zoom and I hate talking on the phone. How can they check you without seeing you? All of the other serious health issues have taken a back seat compared to COVID-19 and preventing it. My brother has had his regular dental visits all through the pandemic. The only mask he was wearing was over his eyes. He has this funny little quirk. If he can't see what they are doing, most of the time, he doesn't pass out. With a shot forget it. He's out like a light.

It's a pain having all those stitches on my nose, and I feel like I want to swat the bugs off my face, but it's healing and I go in Friday to have the stitches removed. It's still swollen and red, and the nostrils still point upward. I'm hoping once the swelling goes down the nose settles too.
I'll be hoping with you. I'm sure stitches and swelling could cause that. It's not vanity that makes us want to see a familiar face when we look in the mirror.??

It takes quite a while for the swelling and bruising to go down, but hopefully everything will fall back into place soon, although you'll probably still notice any little differences more than anyone else. My family and friends say they don't notice my scars, but I do.

Would a little neosporin help?

Good morning all and Happy Thursday.
It's another grey day here.
Lola surfaced and had some breakfast but has taken himself back off to his hide, I'd quite like to do the same and go back to bed but unfortunately I have too much to do.
So I'd better get cracking........TTFN

I DO have a picture. I take a picture every time I have a skin cancer removed from my face. But I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Once seen, never forgotten! If I could crop it so you only see my nose, I might put it up, but I'm not talented in that way.

It looks like R2 D2!!
No wonder Joe loves it!
It is and he adored it again today. He walks by the store I bought it in 4 days a week so I showed him the receipt ? in case he'd like to buy one for his room. What's cool about it is the water reservoir is a bottled water turned upside down. It actually improves the humidity better than some larger ones I have with less water. I can't figure that one out.

Good morning/afternoon all.
It's bright, cold and very breezy here at the moment.
We had quite a lot of rain last night which was much needed, but also some very strong winds which are going to be a prominent feature of our weather over the weekend. Anything over 30mph makes me nervous and it's looking like 45mph is on the way. :eek: Saturday into Sunday will be a sleepless night for me!!
Lola is up and is being pretty active at the moment which I like to see. maybe in spite of the weather he can sense spring is on the way.
Well, things to do, people to see now so TTFN and Happy Friday!!

Yep by Disney ?
It's not the one that showed up though on your post. The one I found holds a bottle of water which I can always refill with distilled water. Or use any standard size bottled water And it's half the price because it's at Ollie's which is kind of like an odd lots. The only reason I bought it was because it uses bottled water. I was intrigued ?
