Observations, pictures, and sketches highlight the transition of moving to the nations's Capitol after 30 years of living in the Midwest. A clash in cultures? Maybe not!

Phenomenal Lab Work
After a bit of a rough patch last year, my husband went in for his annual exam this week. What he had has been resolved but it took a few months. He is a very healthy person for his age and for that we are very lucky. His biggest issues are allergies of unknown origin and lately a few dental implants. So lab work is always a part of any annual exam. Unfortunately the phlebotomist wasn’t available when he went to the office - which is right across the street. So we set up an appointment for yesterday at Virginia Hospital Center. Even with an appointment we had to wait twenty minutes but all of the paperwork was already completed on line. We found a parking spot right in front and headed to the OP lab. Within the hour the results were already available to check. How things have changed since we were both practicing in health care. Anyway, everything was completely normal except for two items that make no difference - CO2 and vitamin D, and they were hardly off the mark. I don’t know a lot of people who have such great results including myself. So it was a day to celebrate! His doctor said with the way things are with him another ten years wouldn’t be a surprise. Now that’s good news!
