Another Monday....

 We are officially into the month of November, and thankfully, Arizona has decided to quit hitting heat records of over 100 degrees!! Actually, the past couple of weeks haven't been terrible, with daytime temps in the 90's and early mornings around 60's. Back here in my 'office', which is the least climate controlled room in this old house, it is a very nice temp this morning, soon to be chilly enough for a cup of coffee or two as I start my day.

Nothing major on the agenda for things to accomplish today. A couple meetings at the VFW tomorrow evening. The Wife and I will be attending the rodeo down at Chase Field this Thursday. This was a late birthday present from the Wife to me, as Hank Williams, Jr is in concert following the rodeo that night. Wife has the day off as well, so it will be some time spent together. Have my 3-month doctor visit on Friday. My numbers (glucose and BP) have been good (at least for/to me) though, the NP did double up on the stating pill I take for cholesterol a couple weeks ago. Probably based off the labs I had last done. I am hoping to convince her to prescribe me some sort of sleep pill for when I have my bouts of insomnia, but with this NP, who knows. I have mentioned sleep issues before, and she just seems to move on to the next topic. I guess I will need to be more direct and firm this time around. And push for a 6-month visit - I'm getting tired of going every three months, yet they won't let me go longer than six due to my chronic disease (diabetes) allegedly.

Other things I have on my list to do this week is a haircut, and buying a new pair of shoes. The past few times I, or the family, have needed shoes, we have gone to Sketchers. This last pair I bought, has lasted over 3 1/2 years! I think that is the longest I have had a pair last, considering I wear them daily. Now if they were "Sunday shoes" then yeah, they would last that long.... But this pair now is starting to tear out from the sides, and some stitching is starting to unravel. The memory foam insole has been gone for quite some time, and the inner side against the heel is just about worn through. If I remember right, this pair was like $80, so won't mind spending that much for a replacement pair, hoping they last as long as these did.

Not much else to share today, so I will finish this off.
