And more of it tomorrow

[clevermanka]

So it snowed here yesterday. And it's supposed to snow again tomorrow. I am so glad I didn't take vacation this week. But I have tickets to see Jenny Lawson at Unity Temple on the Plaza tomorrow, and if we really do get snow, or the roads are even the slightest bit slick, I'll be stuck at home thanks to the Saab being unsafe for highway driving.

P!nk is playing Kansas City November 12th. Tempting. But tickets go on sale the end of this month, and there's just no way I'll have the money for it.

A while ago, I bought this tee shirt design from ... Teefury? Qwertee? I don't remember. One of those tee-shirt-of-the-day sites. It's one of my favorite tees, now. The design is gorgeous. So I thought I'd mention that Othertees has the design until 4pm, Thursday, March 21, CST. I'd be tempted to buy a back-up if I wasn't broke right now. Just as well, really. My tee shirt drawer is out of control.

At the Merc last night, I picked up some unflavored beef gelatin in addition to the toothpaste ingredients. The Calcium/Magnesium powder I can be used in a drink as well as in the toothpaste (in fact, that's its main use, as a nutritional supplement). After spending a bit of time on that Wellness Mama website, I did some more digging and decided that adding a bit of gelatin to my daily diet certainly wouldn't hurt anything, and neither would adding magnesium. If you don't want to dig through multiple articles, here is Wellness Mama's take on Magnesium and here's one on adding gelatin. So we'll see how that goes.

Had to leave a message on the nurse's answering machine at FirstMed to ask about my lab results. I don't have good luck with this. Either my message gets lost or they fail to actually answer my question, or something goes wrong. I just want my fucking lab results. What the hell.

Oh, and I think I have the book on stopping Dental Decay that she mentions, if you'd like to borrow, I'll see if I can find it.

FirstMed, love them, hate their lousy answering/messaging procedures.

Nah, I'm not worried about the heath of my teeth, really. My teeth are great. I'm more worried about what I'm ingesting via the stuff I use to clean 'em. Thanks, though!

Yeah. Love/Hate FirstMed.

If it helps any, we have the same sort of problems with Jbird's doc's office, unless we specifically ask for my friend who is an NP there.

Good old Kansas spring weather. Never a dull moment, that's for sure!

Gelatin also gives you stronger nails and hair!

Good luck on getting your test results, and good luck on the results themselves!

Huh. For some reason I thought you were already supplementing with magnesium for your gut issues and the fatigue. If I had known, I would have recommended cal/mag for your sleep issues! Make sure you are also getting enough D because [aside from its general wonderfulness on its own] it helps with the absorption of magnesium.

I KNOW.

But what, I'm gonna drive the Saab at 40mph to KC? Don't think so.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Well, better late than never!

I always forget to take my D drops. Gah. I need to bring a bottle to the office.

My doctor's office mails me the blood work results, along with a list of what values they are looking for. Very handy. They should all do that.

I'm switching doctors after this. I'm done with his office.
