Okay, so that young anchor fellow did answer me

Yesterday, I found out that the young man news anchor eventually responded to my multitude of questions.
To paraphrase what he had said in that instant messaging is that he does appreciate the feedback and that he has been working in radio and TV for twenty years now. And that he has received positive and negative feedback from all listeners/viewers and that he does value it, but does not have time to respond to everyone.
Well, he did "volunteer" on a local radio station as a teenager, and I am sure that is quite beneficial in gaining experience, many of my friends and relatives did that too on college campuses as students, quite a few were DJ's on local stations there. But chose different professions from psychology to teaching to law, etc.
And he must be much older than I thought he was, apparently as old as my own sons of forty and nearly forty-four years of age, our eldest this coming end of May.
Even so the not having time to respond to all viewers, my goodness he must have a so much larger fan base than his colleagues, since they always seem to have the time, oh well, dare I say it sounds like a cop-out to me in my opinion, oops forgive, but when you raise sons you have heard it all, even though they turned out just fine.
Selective, he must feel that his priorities are different than his cohorts.
And many are quite involved with charitable organizations as well in their off air times.
I do know that he is a fairly new newly wed and perhaps that is why he has no time.
A very legit bit of reasoning with two careers I can relate way back then; with us being married for forty-five years now, I do know when young our time together took priority over work or anything.
But still I didn't realize that saying thank you took so long...
Enough, already!
And I do appreciate that he did get back to me and did not want me to take it personally he not being able to, so all in all I suppose that I should take it for what it is.................and who knows what that is, ha!

Moving on...

Today, Hubby went grocery shopping by himself, again, for just a few items, well enough to hold us over for least another week.
I have become grocery shy like I am sun shy, all due to that fateful day of the produce incident!
The spider bite?
Actually, never did determine exactly what type of insect got me, but I did end up in the ER in February a week after my heart problems.
The earlobe was a bright red blister type injury, and even that doctor said it could have been a spider, and so did the PA follow-up a week later.
So the initial bite was on 2-9-16 and the follow-up was on 2-16-16 and the PA said it at that point was healing with the topical prescription antibiotic that I was given to use.
Well folks as of since it began, really, it is no longer better, in fact it looks as if it has decided to become another problem, not unlike when this same ear had to be biopsied last May, and almost again this fall.
Confused, since it is now crusty and sore and I had stopped the topical antibiotic after a week as told to, so now I am going back to the dermatologist's office next week, the day after my breathing test!
I also have a mole that is not maintaining its looks for all these years on my lower back, it plumped up larger and got bumpy and it used to be pretty in pink, but now has ugly brownish edges... Gosh I still am sun shy, I am not that dissimilar to a mole (odd same word, but this time the rodent) person with staying indoors as much as I do!
How horrid that is in this the Sunshine state!

On this note of oh well and oh my, allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy healthy safe good night and ask all of you kindly to count all your blessings and share all those overages with you know whom and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!
