The Good Doc

My body is rejecting that double bag donation of yesterday. It will not be attempted again. If they are not happy with a unit of whole blood then they will get nothing and a different donor location will be tried. When your body tells you to do not do that again, it is time to listen carefully.

When the energy accumulated to enough to get out and around this morning, it was over to the harbor to see what was dawning.

The day was cool, clear and very bright sun as you can see above. The weekend folks were out in decent numbers to enjoy the day.

A pleasant item to report is the eye doctor that did my exam. He is Mitchel Wess from San Antonio. Excellent “bedside manner” and answered my questions well and clearly. He is recommended if you are here and need help.

And when you need glasses or contacts the man to see is Jack Riggs at Bay Optical in Aransas Pass. Check this earlier blog entry for all the good details.

A Saturday market day was happening at the big grass area next to the harbor. Since my body is still not up to major excitement, the chosen adventure was to wander the market area. Now this is for the most part a normal small town market days with not much exciting about it. So only one vendor got a picture taken of the items they have for sale.

Some of the stuff is actually pretty nice but aimed at folks with houses of some sort not a 20’ camper. It took about a half hour to slowly check out the booths. Most of the vendors were still setting up and not ready to chat yet.

When that was finished, crossing the street to the north brought me to this fellow who was starting his morning out really actively.

A leisurely walk back to the Truck by way of the beach (that’s for you, sis) and off to the grocery store. It is not known why but it was wrong. The HEB was where the Truck took me. For some reason the layout of HEB stores turns me off instantly upon entering. They are a confusion of gondolas in no decent order that I have ever been able to figure out. The prices here in Rockport at the HEB are more competitive than most HEB stores so that part worked out OK.

So it was back home and put the groceries away. Then the rest of the day was spent just recuperating by being lazy. In reality an occasional day of recuperating can be a good way to try to have tooooo much fun. TheOFM.

  1. There are many days I plan on just doing nothing, but that usually doesn't work out too well. I have a big project planned that will give me too much exercise that will take a month or more.
