The ENT Visit

I had my visit with the ENT (ear,nose,throat) doctor yesterday and have to say I was not to impressed! I drove all the was Minneapolis for this ENT doc, waited for him for about 15minutes all for him to tell me "You can either get your tonsils out or keep them in, here is a brochure and the number to call to schedule if you decide to get them out." THE END! I'm thinking "what...I just paid my co pay and took a trip to minnapolis for you to tell me that!!" I don't know about you, but sometimes these doctors baffle me at times. Why would'nt my first doctor tell me what he was going to say and skip right to part of you need to go get your tonsils out, schedule an appointment with them for this. So now I need to decide, to get them out or not too...that is the question:)

Boycott the Valentine's Day madness

I found this article online about boycotting the valentine's day madness today and found it to be logical and a bit amuzing and wanted to share it with all of my fellow blogger friends. I am totally with her about not being against the romance of it all for a day...but admist the economic crisis we are finding ourselves it is hard to understand why we all fall to the Hallmark spending spree for the day to tell the one you love "I Love You"....

Romance is to be savored, sure, but must we spend nearly $15 billion on candy, flowers and other frivolous gifts? There are better (and sexier) ways to show you care.....http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/CollegeAndFamily/LoveAndMoney/boycott-the-valentines-day-madness.aspx

Happy Valentines Day!!! I hope you enjoy the article:)
