We got a notice a few days ago that they were having a free senior health and wellness expo down at the Rec hall this morning from 9:00 am until noon. They check total cholesterol, thyroid screening, glucose screening, PSA for men, and EKG test. Last night I told Cheri we would go down early because we have to fast for the blood work and afterwards we would go to Golden Corral for breakfast, great plan. Well we got to the Rec hall at 8:40 am and there was already a line of about 30 people and they don’t start until 9:00 am. As far as the EXG, they were only going to do 12 of them and it was by a drawing. They only had one person drawing blood and he was very slow, so it was a long wait. There were about seven people ahead of us when another person came to draw blood. She was really good and was doing three people to the other guy’s one. We ended up waiting over two hours. They were also doing blood pressure testing. We skipped that as we felt that it wouldn’t be a true test after being upset with all the waiting, beside we wanted to get to Golden Corral before they change over to the lunch menu. We did make it with five minutes to spare as they change over to lunch at 11:00 am. After breakfast (really lunch) we went to CVS to get some more back pills for me and Cheri, then a quick stop at the VA clinic to order my medication. This afternoon Cheri worked on her quilt project and I worked in the shed making a free standing shelf unit.
