Today was my monthly visit to my doctor (nurse practitioner -- primary care provider), Leslie. (I didn't actually blog on Monday. So now I need to backdate this, so I have a record of this. I need to know when I see her each month, and I forgot to add it to my monthly Google calendar. It won't let me go backwards and add something ( Read more... )
