It was another nice day here in Rantoul yesterday, so Jim took advantage of it and got a few things done. One thing that he had been wanting to do was to clean the upholstery on my 2 kitchen chairs, so he carried them outside. The first thing he did to them was to install the new pads on the bottom of the legs, (you remember, the ones he bought at True Value the other day), and then after he had them installed, he squirted some foamy stuff on the material, rubbed it in with a sponge and then left them to dry in the sun.

While they were drying, he took his bike for a little ride.

When he got back, he checked my fluid levels, and did a visual check of my belts and engine compartment, and then came in and defrosted my ice maker and cleaned up my kitchen floor,

After lunch, he and Linda finally finished up getting all of the Campgrounds that we've stayed at,  put into the computer. Now, if they'll just keep it up-to-date, they won't have to play catch-up again. ;-)

During the last few days, Jim has been doing some research on the Internet for Linda. All of my regular readers know that she has not been happy with the doctor(s) and the clinic that she has been going to down in Florida. There have been many doctors there over the years, and they are so rushed that they never even take the time to get to know you, or really seem to care about individuals. The clinic has made numerous mistakes with here prescriptions, and when the pharmacist calls the clinic to get things straightened out, they don't call back unless called multiple times.

Well, anyway, Jim found some doctors in this area and did some research on them. After looking at his results, Linda decided to call a doctor over in Fisher IL. and see if he would take her for a patient. She now has an appointment to go and see him in August, and then will decided if she likes him and wants to have him as here primary doctor.

This was something that Linda was really dreading, but after talking to the people over the doctors office, she has a good feeling. So.....hopefully the appointment will go well, and she'll like him.

For dinner, Jim and Linda took CLT (Cute Little Truck), had went to the Village Garden Restaurant in Fisher. They went there for two reasons. First, the food is always good, and secondly, they wanted to check out where the doctor's office was.

Well, they had fish specials, (perch for Linda and cod for Jim), which were excellent, and then after eating, drove past the doctor's office before heading back here.

I don't really know what they expected to see as they drove past the office, but I guess they just wanted to see where it was.

The evening was spent watching TV, and working on the computers.

Did you know that a man once sued his doctor because he survived his cancer longer than the doctor predicted?
